Happy "Mission Accomplished Day" or "How a little propaganda is good for us" **PHOTO HEAVY** |

First, you come up with a snappy little title* * * * * * * * * * Then, add in a dash of a dramatic entrance* * * * * * * * * * Toss in a strutting-preening asshole* * * * * * * * * * Make a speech telling everyone how great you are, and how lucky everyone is to have you in charge* * * * * * * * * * *Note*Not only is it important to be able to fake sincerity and actual feelings for the soldiers that have died because of you, but it works best if you make a glorified production of it as well* * * * * * * * * * Above all, always keep the message strong that "daddy is in charge of the military, so you had better keep your mouth shut, and mind your manners* * * * * * * * * * Keep the message prevelant that a good German never questions authority. They are to blindly accept that Der Führer is doing what is good for all of the people So just sit down, shut up, and never EVER question authority* * * * * * * * * * Lather-Rinse-Repeat* * * * * * * * * * HAPPY M-A DAY EVERYONE!

1. So why didn't it work this time? |
|
I mean if the formula is so simple, how come, barely 4 years on, with us questioning the Bush Administration in a frankly rude way? Bryant Check it out --> http://politicalcomment.blogspot.com

3. He's still in office isn't he? |
|
He's still throwing temper tantrums and vetoing bills that don't rubber stamp everything he wants isn't he?
We at DU have been questioning this asshole for the last SEVEN years. Soldiers are coming home in body bags, even years after it has been proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that the entire war was based on lies and disinformation, and still there he sits.
So something has been working...

apt comparison, in those awful pictures from World War II history to our present day "mission accomplished" history, for us. Which they've been trying to get out of ever since. Those bastids aren't only evil they don't know what the fucks going on.
goebbels would be a good one to throw into the mix because they're so many goebbel wannbes in our corporatemediawhore pool.

9. So actually, Hitler had something on George Bush... |
|
Hitler actually attended a huge ceremony honoring dead German soldiers, even if it was totally insincere. Bush can't even be bothered to attend funerals or acknowledge that the dead soldiers matter to anyone.
