The democrats do not do a great job about framing the message, and we all need to work on changing that, so please read this post.
We all agree that Bush is the worst thing to happen to American, but the Bush presidency is starting to sunset, and attacking him does us NO GOOD WHAT SO EVER.... We need to tie the Bush Presidency right around the necks of the Republicans, and we do that with how we frame the debate. By the words we choose
By taking all the negative feelings that there are about Bush and moving them to Republicans as a whole we can make sure that the BUSHCO never happens again.
The current batch of Republicans are doing all they can to put space between Bush and them, DON'T LET THEM.
So here are some tips that you can use to help tarnish all Republicans with Bush stank...
"Bush has ruined America."
"Bush, and his Republican backers, have ruined America."
"Bush's war in Iraq is killing our troops"
"Bush's Republican backed war in Iraq is killing our troops"
"I can not afford health care because of Bush"
"I can not afford health care because of Republicans"
The fact is that attacking Bush is a waste of time, moving that energy to the Republicans can pay off in spades. Remember that Bush has not done anything that the Republicans did not allow him to get away with. For the first 6 years they held the cards and did everything he wanted, so make sure they get blame for it as well.
Bloggers, cross posters and more, your words matter, and you can help frame the debate. Most of America is pissed off at Bush, lets make sure they remember that he is a Republican.
