GOP Talking Points Form for Letters to the Editor
Edited on Mon Aug-23-04 01:03 PM by Craig Roberts
Did anybody else see this on memepool.com? They linked to a form on the Bush/Cheney 2004 site designed to allow regular people to promote RNC talking points regardless of how inarticulate or ignorant they might be.

I thought it was funny when the Limbaugh fans adopted the "dittohead" label as if parroting the views of others was something to be proud of, but I didn't know such sheep-like behavior was so widely accepted among Republicans.

And to see how popular this standard can-you-think-for-me form is, just do a Google search for some of the canned text, like "New job figures and other recent economic data" (as memepool also noted).

Is this why the Republican party succeeds? Is it really so reliable to count on the laziness and stupidity of the American people? Let's hope we prove them wrong in November.

1. I saw it...
...when looking for Swiftboat liar references on that site. It took me aback. Whenever liberals call a talk show, sometimes they're nervous, stumble and mumble and bumble around until they relax, and don't always get their point across. But this never happenes to right-wing callers - they sound exactly the same, every time, and are always prepared... and now we know why.
