Tonight was the opening salvo of a new propaganda campaign against US...

So why is cable news now pretending Saddam had ties to 9/11, and had WMDs?
They keep showing old footage on MSNBC and CNN talking about Saddam's ties to 9/11...
Talking about his WMD's and how much of a threat he was.

What the fuck?

Get ready for the surge. This war is not going to end anytime soon. Tonight was the opening salvo of a new propaganda campaign against US...

How much longer are we going to sit on our asses, in the comforts of our homes, while this SHIT continues to happen IN OUR NAMES, weather we like it or not?

10. As I said it needs to affect people

why do you think people are so afraid of the D word?

Even my neighboors are now whispering about it... one was shocked when I said, we need one... and that was the reason.

He paled but agreed

A kid we raised, said as much, it will take that to wake up his fellow college students

2. The Saudis and the brits are showing their anger at us.

We sat up a puppet government in Iraq and took over their country and are acting 100% imperialistic.

3. The salvo started a few weeks ago when the term "surge" suddenly

appeared. This thing is supposed to invigorate the flagging joe six pack american blood lust.

4. Everyone knows this is crap

it's been proven that the administration spin was a lie. Most people know it and with the investigations beginning it will be even more so.
If the traditional media wants to play lapdog to shrub, let them as people are aware of the crap and that the media has been willing stooges for chimpy.

5. Realpolitik predicts

that 2008 will look a lot like 1968.
Only it won't be a youth movement, per se.

I remember 1968.
