Kerry should use more Bushisms in speeches
Edited on Wed Sep-01-04 12:30 PM by zulchzulu
Since BushCo use Kerry's words and manipulate them for chuckles and whatever other evil they can spew, Kerry should throw back a few Bushisms into a lead-in for his specific issues.

For instance, Kerry could talk about national security and how he would amend and end portions of the Patriot Act with these words:

George Bush says he is a man of his words. Perhaps we should ask what he meant when he said in Annandale, Virginia: "Let me put it to you bluntly. In a changing world, we want more people to have control over your own life." At least he is being honest...

1. He should use them in ads
Not the dopey misspeak so much as the flat out lies.

Get Jon Stewart's people to produce them.

Call it "george w bush, in his own words," or something...

- split screen, bush side by side, saying two totally contradictory things.

2. Bush hangs himself with his own rope

He's just leaving an opening for Kerry to go in for the kill.

(edited for clarification)

If we were to take your "advice" to task, then we should not discuss politics since it usually involves some degree of recommendations and strategies...I guess we need to show our PoliSci degree and paycheck stub from a high-ranking media outlet first...

BTW, I have worked for a TV news station in the past. Does that count?
