They are conquering the globe with snappy phrases & word games. |
|
Cut and run. Freedom and democracy. Over there instead of over here. The tide is turning. When they stand up we'll stand down. Mission Accomplished. Bring em on. Homeland security. Global war on terror. The long war. Stability in Iraq.
Compassionate conservative. God bless America. Islamofascism. Iraq is the central front in the global war on terror. Coalition of the willing. I'd like to close Gitmo but I can't. Brownie is doing a heck of a job.
Word tricks Catapulting the propaganda. Operation change the perception. Operation moving forward together. Troop withdrawal. Insurgents. Weapons of mass destruction.
Every crime they've committed has been done with words on paper, words in speeches, words uttered in public that mean the opposite in private.
We need to call them on all the lies and word games and throw each and every CUTE PHRASE right back in their pudgy faces.

3. We've been traveling in this direction for some time |

It probably began with the MTV generation and filtered it way throughout the fabric of our society. The "me now", instant gratification society. If it takes more than 15 seconds of thought, forget about it. Its sad that our freedoms can be stolen with a sound byte.
