26. Aw, shoot - forgot one thing. Sorry...
Edited on Wed Aug-04-04 12:21 AM by calimary
This is actually a THREE-PRONGED attack.

ONE: Congress and the Senate.

TWO: Kerry.

THREE: THE MEDIA!!! The same kind of energy and effort spent hounding any and all republi-CONS MUST - repeat - MUST be matched or complemented with corresponding hounding of THE MEDIA. Two reasons why:
a) They MUST be put on notice that we are WELL AWARE of how they coddled the conservatives and republi-CONS, persecuted Bill Clinton, and slept through the bush years. They must be informed that THIS FAVORITISM WILL NOT BE TOLERATED. They must quit hiding the truth about what the OUSTED regime has perpetrated on this country.
b) They MUST be put on EQUAL notice that it will be UNACCEPTABLE for them to decide that only NOW they're finally gonna wake up and muck-rake and get the proctoscope out, since there's a "dreaded Democrat" back in the White House. THEY WILL BE EXPECTED TO GIVE KERRY THE SAME FAIR SHAKE THEY HANDED TO bUSH ON A DIAMOND-STUDDED SILVER PLATTER. In fact, we MUST INSIST on it.

If anything, we probably have to be MOST aggressive in this third arena. If indeed we DO get something we can reasonably trumpet as a MANDATE, and a LANDSLIDE, we basically need to rub their noses in it, and force their attention to the realities – that it’s the DEMOCRATS back in power, and we’re not pushovers anymore, nor are we their scratching posts, because we’ve got the numbers and the momentum and the power on OUR side, for a change. And if indeed that's the case, we are IDIOTS not to take full advantage of it. They will URGENTLY NEED TO BE REMINDED OF THIS. REPEATEDLY. AND UNRELENTINGLY. WITHOUT MERCY.
