What snappy slogans will be used to extend the war 6 more mnths.?
The whole war has been created and maintained with the simple use of clever slogans. They fit well on bumper stickers and headlines. Stay the course is a good one, that is still in use, even yesterday I saw it in a bushwar headline.

We must fight them over there bla bla is another fine and effective slogan.

We must continue the fight so that the fallen did not die in vain is an extra snappy one.

Lately its been, 'we are waiting on General Betrayus's report in September', each six month war cycle continuation is fueled by snappy slogans written by dick and his speech writers.

On September eleventh the good general will deliver his super hyped report, but he's wasting everyone's time, we all know what it says already, then the 'surge' will be re-named, repackaged, and given a few new snappy slogans to accompany it.

"Stability by Spring"? "Surge Two, the Return"? "Surge Hard, with a vengeance"?

"The March toward March"? "Springtime for bush and Victory"? "Iran has weapons of mass destruction, an army of terrorists, and is developing nuclear weapons"?

I just can't WAIT for the next snappy slogans!

2. "We have sacrificed too much to leave now"
"The surge is working in some areas, to pull out now will make us look weak and enable our enemies" followed by condemnation for bush and his policies and war, followed by a vote to keep funding it.

21. "War is not poor!"
Edited on Sat Aug-25-07 07:15 AM by BlueIris
You see how it both emphasizes the word "war" and denounces the term "poor" and implies that since we are at war, we, as a country, are therefore automatically, er, "un-poor"? The Democrats would be fools to criticize the Bush economy with that zinger flying around!

24. Just 6 more months. . .We're beginning to see results. .
I don't think they'll have the nerve to say we've "rounded the corner" or "there's light at the end of the tunnel". .

Or maybe they will.

34. AMERICA, FUCK YEAH.
Comin' again, to save the mother fucking day, yeah,
America, FUCK YEAH!
Freedom is the only way, yeah,
Terrorist, your game is through 'cause now you have to answer to,
America, FUCK YEAH!
So lick my butt, and suck on my balls,
America, FUCK YEAH!
What you going to do when we come for you now?
It’s the dream that we all share; it’s the hope for tomorrow . . .



Sadly, I would be tempted to support the WOT with this sort of sales pitch--especially if the gov. included big-time wresting clips.

40. terrists are forever, forever, forever
over the bond theme. who knew that terrists last longer than diamonds?

soon to be remixed by the hippest rightwing (oxymoron alert) dj's at freeperland, bringing horde (singular) of writhing freep to the dancefloor. but ONLY AS LONG as there is at least 4 portapotties available for use of lone freeper.

it will be picked up by the "liberal" msm, becoming the subject du jour on all sunday this week's, press stephenopolous's meat shows, creating a SURGE of support from american idol watchers nationwide.

needless to say, public sentiment is overwhelmingly FOR prolonging the recently repackaged effort to "save little lord pissypants legacy".

said recently re-energized war fan, "it's da bomb! a GREAT beat, easy to dance to, I give it a 95!"
