Lets turn their language around on them.

2. w-stickers
for the last two days, I spent some time on the road, especially in freeper territory on my way to couple of meetings. Made a point of looking for and counting up W stickers.
I'll ignore the traffic jams, only because I saw the same 6 cars the whole time.

In moderately heavy traffic, not one sticker.
in moderately light traffic, not one sticker.
in light traffic, not one sticker.
In a major public parking lot, by a courthouse. Not one sticker.

Oh, and in the traffic jam? not one sticker.

Even the numbers of yellow made in china support ribbons have dropped to almost nothing.

5. Same here
But part of the reason may be that fewer people can afford to fuel their SUV's. It's pretty rare to see a W sticker on anything that gets over 15 MPG.

6. But, still see plenty of Kerry/Edwards stickers, in these parts...
There is some gloating involved.

9. I'm seeing that too...it's like Rove's setting him up for a fall
The terrible Katrina photo ops, interviews going badly, now this crappy briefing with the soldiers today. We all know Bush can't go to the bathroom without Karl. Wonder what's up. Rove's definitely lost his Midas touch.

13. this wasn't just a fuckup. This is a WILD MUDDA of all FUCKUPS
First of all, you think Scotty Boy is long for the press room, after he lied repeatedly? Especially when White House staffers were running the practice, and NOT the DOD as he claimed?

Every single meeting with Bush will now be under the microscope, not for content, but for set-up. And that means that the WH can no longer control the message - because their content will be immaterial.

even if they tell the truth, we won't believe them. To fix it, they have to fire staff. Lots of staff. Starting with scotty. And the person who ran the practice questions without realizing that she was being recorded.

They are SO major league fucked with this, it is truly amazing.

3. Good One!
Dittohead Dead Ender works for me too.

Too bad "Dead Ender" is so literal. How many more have to die?

8. sometimes I feel we are the shrinking minority...
there is constant infighting among members of this board, it seems there is no clear message to reach out and increase our numbers. There isn't even clear consencous as to who would be the best candidate to represent us.

just my 2 pennys worth
