4. I means we will be portrayed as wild-eyed fanatics.
A very poor strategy. Call and make calm coherent point of dissent. Their are more than enough to point out.

7. John Kerry tried that - didn't work out too well
We need to rethink our tactics, give the American people something to latch on to without much effort.

6. I love this C-SPAN caller!!
She basically said Bush lied about WMDs in Iraq, and now he lies about Social Security. I don't have to call C-SPAN now! (But I'm still gonna try...)

BETTER DEAD THAN RED!!

11. Those aborted fetuses would be alive and paying the FICA taxes
if they hadn't been aborted.

Who knew the Republicans wanted to save fetuses so that they could work and support the Republicans?
