We need to make PNAC a household word way before 2006 comes around
Dean needs to make this a constant part of his speeches in public. It needs to be hammered over and over so that even Faux Snooze would have to report on it.

Yes, it's old news to most of us, but in discussions I've had with many people, they have no idea of the connection with PNAC, Iraq-Iran and what is to come.

It needs to be common knowledge.

Some ideas on talking points:

Ignoring the pre 9/11 warnings would suit the members of The Project For A New American Century (PNAC) plans to attack Iraq unilaterally as early as 1992 when the neoconservative thinktank was formed.

On page 63 of the PNAC document “Rebuilding America's Defenses plan, a message about the need for a Pearl Harbor-type event must occur in order to invade Iraq:

“...the process of transformation, even if it brings revolutionary change, is likely to be a long one, absent some catastrophic and catalyzing event – like a new Pearl Harbor.”

Bush administration staff that are also on the board with PNAC are Elliott Abrams (Representative for Middle Eastern Affairs), Richard Armitage (Deputy Secretary of State), John Bolton (Undersecretary for Arms Control and International Security Affairs), Dick Cheney, (Vice President and PNAC founder), Paula Dobriansky (Undersecretary of State
for Global Affairs), Bruce Jackson (U.S. Committee on NATO), Zalmay Khalilzad (U.S.-Afganistan Ambassador), Lewis Libby (Chief of Staff for the Vice President), Peter W. Rodman (Assistant Secretary of Defense for International Security), Donald Rumsfeld (Secretary of Defense), Paul Wolfowitz (Deputy Secretary of Defense), and Dov S. Zakheim (Department of Defense Comptroller). Many of these members have executive interests and financial interests with oil companies and defense contractors that are profiting from the war.

This needs to be common knowledge for the American electorate BEFORE 2006 comes around. We need to drum this message continuously so that even Repugs start to ask questions...if only to save their ass. Then we get them too for being complicit with the Repugs in the Oval Office.

Keywords are:
War profiteering
Letting 9/11 happen by ignoring warnings to have a new "Pearl Harbor"
Links of PNAC agenda to the White House

4. Lots of people never heard of it or glaze their eyes when you explain it
It sounds like a conspiracy theory until you look at the facts. Then, you feel like you need to go on a mission to let others know.

3. Must also expose and get rid of electronic voting machines as well...
before 2006, before the republicans steal five more Senate seats to stop democrat fillibusting...they get those five seats...they will have complete control and it will be almost impossible to stop them, they will then have total power.
