Kerry: 'My plan is not "cut and run." Their plan is "lie and die."'
From http://www.rawstory.com - it's the teaser line. But I like that "Lie & Die" THat's what we should be saying to anyone who says democrats are "cut & run".

2. It should have been cut and run from the beginning.


US military should get the hell out of the middle east.

six months.

3. Kerry is really stepping up
I must admit, as a non-fan of JK I really like what he's doing. I wish he could get some attention.

The corollary to the "Lie and Die" phrase is of course

"Stay and Die"

4. Now, if only the media will repeat it. (But don't hold your breath
where Fox is concerned. I bet they'll keep showing photoshopped pix of Kerry w/ Jane Fonda in Hanoi.)

23. He has to repeat it himself- on TV interview & debate shows....
We need to stop expecting Republican media to repeat our talking points FOR US.

Like it or not, if Kerry wants this repeated, he will have to get his figernails dirty & say it to Wolf & Hannity's face.

They are not going to say it for him.

11. Very good!
"Lie and Die" is a perfect reframe. I hope it "takes" and the media starts to run with it. Hey! It could happen...

That's my dad's two cents on the matter.

17. I'm glad he's countering the "cut and run" mantra. How many
times have we heard it repeated this week?? Thank you, Senator Kerry!

18. What about "pay and stay?"
Which one's more effective? I think Kerry's is.

19. Shame that those doing the dying are at the mercy of the ones doing the
lying.

But I certainly like the meme

20. Has he said that phrase on televison yet? I absolutely love it.
Edited on Tue Jun-20-06 03:46 PM by Dr Fate
"Lie & Die"- so true.

It's about time we get very blunt and aggressive with these crooks- thanks JFK.

21. Finally, someone drops the L-bomb.
It appears that Kerry is the first Senator willing to disrupt the genteel camaraderie on Capitol Hill. Long, long overdue.

They lied us into war. They continue to lie to keep us there. And they'll just keep on lying if they're left in power.

Fuckin' A. :thumbsup:

25. I know- thank the Lord above!!!
We need to use words that drive it home- "mislead" and "mistake" is just not factual enough.

Lie & Die- it does not get anymore clear than that.

I also like how Dean said "Cheney has no credibility" the other day- but I really do think the actual word "lie" is the one that really drives it home.

Do some of us REALLY think that swing-voters and everyday, normal people are put off by the word "lie?" It's actually a pretty common word used to describe politicians.

27. I'm sending Kerry some money with a thank-you note (link)

It's important to let DEMS know it when they get it right.

29. Also tell them: "The Republicans Cut and Run Since Day One"
"They Cut Programs and Run Away with the Money, plus the National Credit Card. Have they done anything else?"

It's not too long, and it's true.

Okay: "lie and die" is better (shorter). :thumbsup:

Bumperstickers, flyers, billboards (everything else than bought 'n sold M$M) all over.
