Converting Repukes you meet is as easy as posing as a disgruntled Repuke!

I have done this for about a year now. It is easy, and amazingly effective. The good old fashioned Word of Mouth is probably one of the deadliest weapons we have to use against BushCo.

First off, never approach one of these folks as a rival, (i.e. ENEMY a.k.a. Democrat, liberal, liberal-Democrat) for, as we all know, if you do, EVERYTHING that comes out of your mouth from that moment forward will be judged by the respective Repuke to be completely invalidated, being that it is tainted by slimey liberal bias! Instead, introduce yourself as a fellow Repuke. I do this by claiming that I come from a Repuke family. I then proceed to claim to have proudly voted for the likes of Ray-Gun, Bush the Elder, Bob Dole, Smirky, and, most recently, (because I live in California) for the amazing budget balancing Gropinator! (Warning: this method DOES require a very strong stomach!) By doing this, you will have created INSTANT and COMPLETE credibility with your reform subject!

I then launch into a nasty tirade against BushCo, claiming that this bunch of crooks are NOT true small government conservatives, like myself (barf, barf) - but are NEOCONS, hooked on huge spending, and even bigger government than most Democrats! I then point out how the Chimp has managed to turn the biggest deficit in history, into the biggest debt! I mention how outrageous it is for Bush to use huge sums of OUR tax dollars - 87 billion - to build schools and hospitals for the Iraqis, while Americans' hospitals and schools are allowed to become 2nd rate! Time and time again, I mention the Bush crimes and injustices in MONETARY terms (avoiding altogether, any discussions of the moral injustice of murdering large numbers of innocent people - thus preventing the conversion process from morphing into a debate with an irrational "patriotic" Rethuglican). I also mention Cheney's sleezy association with Halliburton, and Rumsfeld's connection to defense contractors. I have found that most Repukes do not like Ashcroft's limiting our freedoms, nor ChimpCo's desire for a return of The Draft (particularly one devoid of rich white kid deferments).

Before I go any further, let me emphasize how important it is to do as much Clinton bashing as possible (sickening for me, as I am a HUGE Big Dog fan) - Hillary included of course - this you will find will establish your credibility with your respective Repuke subject perhaps quicker than anything else! You also find this Clinton bashing quite useful when you move to suggest that the ONLY practical way to get rid of ChimpCo is to vote for one of the candidates (don't dare mention that they are Dems) - who, thank goodness, are NOTHING like that sleezy, lying, no good, slick Willie, Bill Clinton!! They seem to instinctively like THE GENERAL (Clark - military), and when mentioning Dean, lead-off with the fact that he is a DOCTOR - and really quite conservative!

What you will find is that the majority of even this group - are looking for an excuse to dump Chimpy (who everyone know sucks big-time) - they just don't want to hear it from one of us (i.e. THE ENEMY!!) They can talk until they are blue in the face about the enemy being Al-Qaeda - but I think we all understand that the REAL enemy to Repukes is US LIBERAL DEMOCRATS!! But, I promise you, when it comes from one of their disgruntley own - they are EASY to talk into dumping the chump chimp! This is a movement that really grows exponentially! Imagine if all DUers made it a goal to convert a certain number of Repukes that they encounter! We have 33,000 registered members, and what - 10 times that or more as far as those who visit?

So everyone here, between now and November 2004 - let's all pledge to make an effort to convert a number of Repukes. We could actually set both personal and group goals. C'mon people, think of the stakes here. Merely the survival of all of mankind! So put on that tacky red, white and blue outfit, clip on a bow tie - whatever it takes to get you undercover (even bonafide Dead-heads can tuck their long hair under a baseball cap). In this crucial endeavor, we simply MUST succeed!!
