DowningStreetMemos, DowningStreetMemos, DowningStreetMemos...
drum beat - keep it going.

tie new stories - directly back to these documentations of the duplicity, audacity and mendacity of the bush administration.

keep coming back to the drum beat until this truth (the duplicity, audacity and mendacity of bushco) is recognized by all - even the diehardbelievers (they need to recognize it - even if they then reject it). Then, only then will the public psyche shift as it reads every next item of news (be it the energy bill, the highway bill, etc) through the lens of public awareness of "so how are they trying to screw us this time and to whom are they tilting this to get more money for cronies".

We tend to jump to the next story - soar on it - until the next story (and with this duplicitous, audacious and mendacious administration and party - those stories are coming fast and furious) without coming back to the story that unifies it all - and reveals the depths to which the GOP operates.

Please join me with the drum beat:

DowningStreetMemos, DowningStreetMemos, DowningStreetMemos...

2. So much to swallow

3. Why should we put the weight of keeping the drumbeat going
all on her shoulders? We need to do it as well. Over and over again. In postings. In conversations. In LTTEs. It takes all of us to keep the drumbeat going until it is a well accepted reality in the public's mind.

5. Great!
I know that we keep hearing about the 1st meeting she had with W, and how she was nice to him, but that was before Downing Street, and many other things we have discovered since then.

12. Okay George so the war was not a "mistake."
The Downing Street Memo is a part of the proof of the LIE that killed Casey Sheehan. President Bush, How do you ask someone to be the FIRST PERSON to die for YOUR LIE? That is what is on America's mind now.


The dumbass should have went with "mistake" when he had the chance to. But Bush always has been his own worst enemy. It's his greed that is ultimately his undoing every time.

8. Forged Yellow Cake Documents (aka Plame/Wilson),
as an example of just how the 'intelligence was fixed around the plan', as layed out in the DSM.
