AND, couple that with the "USA Today's" "The Shutdown Party"!!!!!!!

The press is on OUR side! The memes are on OUR side! The FRAMING is on OUR side! The IMAGING is on OUR side! The MESSAGING!!! The MESSAGING is on OUR side!!!!!! WE've got this!

But even more important is that we KEEP this!

When Robert Gibbs goes on TV and says the White House just should sit back and watch. WRONG!!!!!! Now that we're winning the narrative, we have to KEEP AT IT!!!

Underscore it!

Reinforce it!

Buttress it!

Support it!

Sustain it!

Secure it!

Keep it standing strong!

Don't let this erode!

Do NOT blink!

DO NOT CAVE!!!!!!!!!!

Now that we have the advantage, the last thing we can afford to do is sit back and enjoy our "victory"! 'Cause we don't HAVE a "victory" yet!!!!!!! This is still a battle being fought - at present! In the here and now! But so far, the bad guys ARE down. What we have to do is KEEP them down. Now that they're on the floor, we need our jackbooted-feet on their throats.

Remember - these are not people. These are scorpions wanting a free ride on our backs across the river. And what should you always remember that scorpions inevitably do? Do they ever act nice and concede, or is it their nature to sting you into full paralysis and death?

Holy Crap!

I saw it earlier and thought it was a good cartoon/satire/photoshop thing. But I just popped over to NYdailynews.com and there it was.

Nice...

SPREAD THAT MEME!!!!

The messaging is OURS this time! Let's work it!!! We can't afford to sit back and relax now! Now is when we have to help drive this stake into the heart of the teavampires, and then GLUE it in place. With Superglue and fast-drying cement! And then bolt it in like a house being bolted to the foundation in earthquake country. And then surround it with 24/7 armed guards.

We have the advantage. We need to use it and secure it!

Don't EVER forget what Mad-Eye Moody always warned Harry Potter: "CONSTANT VIGILANCE!!!!!!" The only times we've ever lost (and unfortunately there have been many) are when we think we've just won and our side rolls over and goes back to sleep.

Glad you're here! It's EXTREMELY and PROFOUNDLY well-deserved! And we have to work hard and long to KEEP it that way! Don't ever forget the machinery the bad guys have at their fingertips to turn the tide. They have ALL the hate radio from coast-to-coast (AND limbaugh on Armed Forces Radio around the globe), they have an entire 24-hour/seven-day-a week cable network that doesn't EVER break for prison documentaries throughout the night and all weekend, they have koch brothers money and US Chamber of Commerce money and shel adelson money and donald trump money and NRA money and kkkarl rove American Crossroads money and MEGATONS of financial and media TNT on their side to help reverse any trend they don't like.

We can NEVER let up. We can NEVER lull ourselves into thinking we've won this. The bad guys are always gonna be there trying to make a comeback. So we can NEVER let our guard down!!!

Now that we have the advantage, we have to go ALL OUT to make sure we keep it!!!! Please note the TOLL FREE Capitol Hill switchboard numbers in my sig line. Please also consider your Congresscritter's REGIONAL offices, where you might find it easier to get through. PUSH THE MESSAGING!!!

If they think you don't care, they won't either!!! They'll go with the teabaggers - who do not hesitate to let them know THEY care!

This guy actually has an option on his phone line to "learn more about the abuses of Obama". His phone lines are busy, I had to leave a message for this POS.
