"If you don't vote, NANCY PELOSI WILL become Speaker of the House!!!"

"Social Security will go bankrupt in 1985, whoops, we need to update that. But, still PANIC!!!"

"Gay Marriage, aaaahhhh!!!"

3. Someone needs to do an AD
which starts off with "Home of the Free and Land of the Brave". Then it would start listing all the "FEAR" soundbytes from monkeyboy. Show what a hypocrite he is.

6. Remember Bush quoting FDR in 2000...
At the 2000 RNC Convention (video), George told the cheering throngs:

"They are the Party of FDR, but all they have to offer is fear itself."

His speech then could be the DNC's today. Looking back, the irony is palpable.
