If Reagan restored RW pride in America, Abuse Scandal destroys it
Edited on Sat May-08-04 01:19 PM by Dems Will Win
The Right Wing has run out of arguments.

The Ugly American is back--big time!

This is a turning point for the Dems, because only right-wing jingoism props up the Republicans. It's their only cause left.

Now that has evaporated--just as the My Lai Massacre wiped out any pretense of Vietnam being a "good war".

They will mouth the words "proud of America" but they will soon see it has merely a fraction of the jingoistic power it had before this.

1. nah, rumsfeld's taking the fall.
They'll personalize the blame upon him, instead of letting it stay abstract.

2. Whatever the media says this time
people will blame Bush and the pride in America thing is dead.

Rummy's resignation won't put a dent after the next set of rape photos and videos come out.

3. No, they won't.
Because it is OUR job to see that they don't get away with that.

We can do that. Yes, we can.
