it is time for the democrats to swift boat this administration, except
it will be the truth

They have to start blasting everyday that they were misled and lied to by THIS administration on the Iraq war.

The repukes srategy is that it wasn't their fault, but the intelligence they received. We cannot let that idea take hold or it will be a disaster.

2. Not Swift Boat.

3. No it's way past time
They should have screamed this from the rooftops during the 04 persidential campaign, but for some reason they bought into the DLC don't criticize the repubs on defense bullshit. Hopefully the events of the past year have convinced them of the folly of this approach and they are now ready to grow spines and stand up for wht is right and call a lie a lie. BTW the first step is for them to say they weren't "misled" they were LIED TO.

4. I stayed in a hotel this weekend and watched the whores a bit
I normally only get my "what's on CNN and FNC and MSNBC" news here. It's astonishing, but they are spinning this, and it seems equally effective to all their lying spin over the years. The public must wise up or the outcome will be exactly the same. We can only trust the people to see at this point.

5. Yeah, except let's call it "bringing accountability to Washington"
"Swift boating" sounds so... phoney. We wouldn't have to lie or color the facts at all to show this administration to be a bunch of lying cowards, thieves, and killers.

7. We don't need to "ape them". We have the truth and are adults. We
do things like adults would. With might, empathy, intellect and the truth.

I get so tired of people wanting to emulate the adolescent GOP leadership. They have personality disorders. They belong on used car lots fleecing families.

8. because that is what gets people attention
Kerry was extremely professional during the 2004 campaign, and look where it got him.

It is more than that. For one thing it is the truth, but most important over a hundred thousand people have been KILLED IN OUR NAME because of this LIE!!!

I am tired of just listening to one lie after another spewed on the airwaves by the repuke talking points which are never questioned. It is time to become passionate or we can forget it

9. We can question & be passionate without apeing them. Get rid of
all their phony and slick terms. That is not our vocabulary.
