PROTECT THE PROPAGANDA!!!

This is possibly one of the most ridiculous things I have ever heard. Mr. Cheney came out and stated that the recent violence in Iraq was the result of Islamic insurgents trying to influence the American people to vote Democrat, saying that they’re trying to “break the will of the American people”.

The truth of the situation is that this has been one of the most violent months in the war and will be yet another staple in the upcoming mid term elections but I think what they fail to see is that the Islamic holy month, Ramadan, just ended on the 23rd so do think that this may be more in tune with that rather than the elections? Dick says no, he says that Al-Qaeda (which is a completely different faction that the insurgents so I don’t know why they got dragged into this but they did) are very interested in our election and that they use the Internet to keep base with the polls. “There isn't anything that's on the Internet that's not accessible to them. They're on it all the time. They're very sophisticated users of it” He says, as if they have some sort of terrorist MySpace. It is true that al-Qaeda uses the internet to spread propaganda which is why the Pentagon is creating a special team to “create” messages to set the record strait on news stories in a 24 loop website, sort of anti-propaganda propaganda. So remember, a vote for democrats validates the terrorist's agenda. (just kidding)

Well that’s the situation, read the BBC article http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/6101178.stm, come up with an opinion and let me know.

It's political rhetoric. I don't pay all that much attention too it, and I think I'm in the majority. Our government seems to underestimate the intelligence of it's citizens too many times. That unfortunate. When will that end? I couldn't say.

Oh my! You mean my voting Democrat is the reason that the Iraqi's are being meanies to our poor troops over there? I think I'll listen too Mr. Hannity and stay home on election day to ensure our success in Iraq.(He said it http://mediamatters.org/items/200610200001)

Give me a break this is possibly the stupidest thing ever to come out of Cheney (save the bullets to his buddy's face). How the neo-cons think this kind of spin on the election is going to help them win the house is beyond me, you, “and some of your more discerning domesticated animals” as Olbermann put it. I am kind of flabbergasted that they would even try to push this as a reason for people to not vote democrat.
