Regarding George W. Bush "Our Leader" Billboards



(Statue of Saddam Hussein)

Totalitarian Dictators have this obsession that their ugly mug has to be seen wherever you turn.

So, expect to see more of Bush's face.

2. It would be funny if someone
were to cover Bush up with the picture of someone else. Kerry, Hitler, something.

3. Related?
"Replace the enemy's flags and standards with our own."

"Therefore, in night battles, use many torches and drums, and in day battles, use many flags and pennants in order to influence men's eyes and ears."

"Where ground is surrounded by others, and the first one to reach it will gain the support of the masses, this is called intersecting ground."

"If there are obstacles placed in the undergrowth, he wants to make us suspicious."

"If the enemy's flags and pennants move about, he is in chaos."


Sun-Tzu

Perfectly adaptable to poltical strategy in non-military way, and still relevant to this day. I often wonder just how much the Repugs have studied and used this manual.

4. It is related. It is straight from the Fascist playbook
These two have placed themselves as though they are saying "You can't escape us." People couldn't be in Iraq and escape from Hussein, and they don't want us to be in the United States and free from Bush.

This billboard is a statement saying "Bush is our unquestioned leader"

5. Sun Tzu says:


"No country has ever benefited from protracted warfare."

"Thus the highest realization of warfare is to attack the enemy's plans; next is to attack their alliances; next to attack their army; and the lowest is to attack their fortified cities."

The wise general will concentrate on securing provisions from the enemy."

7. Paintball guns are a good solution to this problem.

10. Clear channel was clever-they positioned them far from the road
and on the OPPOSITE SIDE of the freeway from the direction that they're viewed. VERY hard to shoot a paintball gun at one.

9. One in Orlando has a new addition
a large red ribbon over Bush's* name that reads "UNITED for a better tomorrow". What next? Giant flags? A trumpeting soundtrack? Clear Channel seems desperate.

(BTW-this billboard can be seen driving West on I-4, between Lee Rd. and Fairbanks-left hand side of the freeway).

12. Let's put the Bernard Kerik statues on the ground beneath them
dress the statues in drag and deface the billboards.

You peeps in?
