Haiti meme: "bloodbath"
I know, I know... I was on the tip of the spear in the fight against ever using the word "meme" again. :)

Someone sent the memo to all the RW talking heads to keep on about the "bloodbath" that has been Haiti under Aristide. I challenge you to find a right-wing source today who hasn't used the word when discussing Haiti.

How has this "talking points" methodology survived? It's so transparent!

5. There may still be a bloodbath...
I just hope I don't see US Marines shooting down Black protesters. And Bushco better hope footage of that doesn't turn up over here!
