"Invent the lie; repeat it often,and it will become the truth, no matter what the facts are."

This says it all.

Benedict Arnold was one too. This line is getting more play than I thought and is a great talking point.

Exactly how LONG did Kerry serve. Bush five years? Kerry we know spent 4 months in VN, but total service?

GOEBBELS' PRINCIPLES OF PROPAGANDA

Based upon Goebbels' Principles of Propaganda by Leonard W. Doob, published in Public Opinion and Propaganda; A Book of Readings edited for The Society for the Psychological Study of Social Issues.

1. Propagandist must have access to intelligence concerning events and public opinion.

 

2. Propaganda must be planned and executed by only one authority.

a. It must issue all the propaganda directives.

b. It must explain propaganda directives to important officials and maintain their morale.

c. It must oversee other agencies' activities which have propaganda consequences

3. The propaganda consequences of an action must be considered in planning that action.

 

4. Propaganda must affect the enemy's policy and action.

a. By suppressing propagandistically desirable material which can provide the enemy with useful intelligence

b. By openly disseminating propaganda whose content or tone causes the enemy to draw the desired conclusions

c. By goading the enemy into revealing vital information about himself

d. By making no reference to a desired enemy activity when any reference would discredit that activity

5. Declassified, operational information must be available to implement a propaganda campaign

 

6. To be perceived, propaganda must evoke the interest of an audience and must be transmitted through an attention-getting communications medium.

 

7. Credibility alone must determine whether propaganda output should be true or false.

 

8. The purpose, content and effectiveness of enemy propaganda; the strength and effects of an expose; and the nature of current propaganda campaigns determine whether enemy propaganda should be ignored or refuted.

 

9. Credibility, intelligence, and the possible effects of communicating determine whether propaganda materials should be censored.

 

10. Material from enemy propaganda may be utilized in operations when it helps diminish that enemy's prestige or lends support to the propagandist's own objective.

 

11. Black rather than white propaganda may be employed when the latter is less credible or produces undesirable effects.

 

12. Propaganda may be facilitated by leaders with prestige.

 

13. Propaganda must be carefully timed.

a. The communication must reach the audience ahead of competing propaganda.

b. A propaganda campaign must begin at the optimum moment

c. A propaganda theme must be repeated, but not beyond some point of diminishing effectiveness

14. Propaganda must label events and people with distinctive phrases or slogans.

a. They must evoke desired responses which the audience previously possesses

b. They must be capable of being easily learned

c. They must be utilized again and again, but only in appropriate situations

d. They must be boomerang-proof

15. Propaganda to the home front must prevent the raising of false hopes which can be blasted by future events.

 

16. Propaganda to the home front must create an optimum anxiety level.

a. Propaganda must reinforce anxiety concerning the consequences of defeat

b. Propaganda must diminish anxiety (other than concerning the consequences of defeat) which is too high and which cannot be reduced by people themselves

17. Propaganda to the home front must diminish the impact of frustration.

a. Inevitable frustrations must be anticipated

b. Inevitable frustrations must be placed in perspective

18. Propaganda must facilitate the displacement of aggression by specifying the targets for hatred.

 

19. Propaganda cannot immediately affect strong counter-tendencies; instead it must offer some form of action or diversion, or both.

Joseph Goebbels would have loved the current crop of democrats and the internet even more.

I'm tired of the Kerry medal BS out of the Dums. Even Adolph Hitler got a medal.

[sgtbono2002]

Benedict Arnold lost a leg fighting for the USA in the Revolution before he turned traitor. Kerry got 3 scratches and used them to get an early ride home. Now he wants to use then for a free ride into the Presidency.

[workerbee]

Mr. Bush’s opponents are using this formula to try to convince the country he is a liar.

Meanwhile, those who are supposed to be his allies in Congress are busy kowtowing, butt kissing, and otherwise prostrating themselves before Goebbels party. I guess we can't expect them to stand up for their president when they're so busy investigating themselves for "wrongdoing", can we?

GREAT piece.

No offense, but I don't think that Bush(43) has a DD-214 as he was in the Air National Guard. I believe he has the National Guard equivalent, the NGB Form 22. This is the same mistake that former Senator Max Cleland made on Hardball when he said that everyone who left the military has a DD-214. In his zeal to damn Bush, he showed his continuing ignorance by assigning the specific term "DD-214" to be the requirement to prove Bush(43)'s term of service, instead of the correct NGB Form 22. Sort of like saying the brand name "Kleenex" instead of the generic "facial tissue".

Bottom line, Bush(43) does not have a DD-214, but he does have an NGB Form 22 for his Air National Guard service.

Bush(43) NGB Form 22

Hope this helps...

Great article.

I think the dems are so desperate.Thay are also SO hypocritical they didn't have a proplem with Bill Clition running with his tail inbetween his legs to avoid going to Vietnam. I mean at least President Bush was in the Air Force, Cliton wasn't in the milatary at all!! Now that the dems are behind a candidate who was in the navy they are all pro-military and are saying that Pres Bush is disloyal to his country becuse he didn't go to Vietnam. Again just look what Cliton did during that time. Also, John Kerry has voted to cut down on the milatary in the senate! But I will say this,at least Kerry was in the Vietnam war, he fought for his country and saved a man's life. But when he came back form Vietnam he became an anti-war nut. He was with nutty antiwar hippies, like Jane Fonda who was a pro commei bic_h. He made speeches that where pro communist, anti american and, ofcourse, atacked then president Nixon,who was a very good president. I think the Dems will lose with Kerry if he is to be nominated. He is so full of himself and gives long winded speeches. He is also a big taxer who wants to repeal most of the Bush taxcuts which is just asking for bigger taxes. He voted on the first gulf war and this second one too, and he then starts to attack them both. WHAT A HYPOCRITE! I just think his recerd in the Vietnam war and in the senate will bite him in the ass when or even if he runs agenst President Bush this fall.

BUSH CHEYNEY '04'!

[Godfollow]

So the left is employing Nazi tactics to try to paint Bush as a Hitler... its all too obvious to those of us who are rational and are not eaten with Algore envy and bitterness from the last election.

The spewings of Algore last Sunday in Tennessee is beginning to sound like the village idiot leading the villagers up to the castle of Frankenstein to confront the monster. If those on the left don't cool their jets a little... they're pushing this to the edge of violence.
