ONE WAY TO VICTORY IN NOVEMBER
Bush is providing Kerry with a very nice political weapon if only we capitalize on it.


Obviously the American people tolerate alot, too much actually, but one thing guaranteed to get their collective hackles up is if they realize that they are being played for a fool.


George Witless Bush regards the people as stupid and treats them accordingly. As we know, most of his statement are believable only if you are mentally challenged or a 10 year old child.The public needs to be told that in no uncertain terms.

Irrespective of the fact that the point seems to be well-taken, and this has been going on since 2000, taking pains to relate that fact at every opportunity can only do the cause good. If done tastefully, and OFTEN, it can yield political hay. This election will not be won by niceness.

1. Kerry should ask people how they can believe * when they see different.

4. Like Richard Pryor said:
if your wife catches you in bed with another woman, say "Who you gonna believe? Me or your lying eyes?"

3. Perhaps Bush believes the Big Lie works.....
....Hitler writes in Mein Kampf (James Murphy translation, page 134):

"All this was inspired by the principle - which is quite true in itself - that in the big lie there is always a certain force of credibility; because the broad masses of a nation are always more easily corrupted in the deeper strata of their emotional nature than consciously or voluntarily; and thus in the primitive simplicity of their minds they more readily fall victims to the big lie than the small lie, since they themselves often tell small lies in little matters but would be ashamed to resort to large-scale falsehoods. It would never come into their heads to fabricate colossal untruths, and they would not believe that others could have the impudence to distort the truth so infamously. Even though the facts which prove this to be so may be brought clearly to their minds, they will still doubt and waver and will continue to think that there may be some other explanation. For the grossly impudent lie always leaves traces behind it, even after it has been nailed down, a fact which is known to all expert liars in this world and to all who conspire together in the art of lying. These people know only too well how to use falsehood for the basest purposes."

5. Wouldn't the WMD lie to get us into war be considered a "Big Lie"....
I mean it was so big, that it was given credibility simply for its size...

7. WE NEED TO TURN THE TABLES ON BUSH AND HIS LIES
Kerry and Edwards remind the voters that Bush takes them for fools, and we have to yell it in the media.

6. 8 words to win
Every time Kerry talks about yet another bogus "promise" or "plan" from chimpy, he pauses and looks skeptical, then says:

"You're too smart to fall for that, right?"
