Democrats are masters of propaganda, especially the ultimate sympathy tool: children.

Compared to lovable kiddies, fiscal responsibility just doesn't resonate with the electorate. Therefore, Republicans quite simply need to learn to express their ideas in terms of how they will help children.

Here's my suggestion:

"Why should we pour any more taxpayer dollars into a system that graduates children from high school who cant read??? I propose that we quit giving pork to the fat sow that is our education system so our oh-so-precious children dont have to pay for it with their hard earned dollars when they become adults. THAT is how you help the freakin' children!! Thank you."

Sadly, I havent received any calls from the Republican National Committee.

Both sides need to lose the word "free education". Taxes everywhere are sky high and education is a complete joke. Along with fighting terrorism, tackling the education debacle in our country is critical. Otherwise, another generation will be filled with useful idiots pledging allegiance to the UN.

For whatever it's worth ( take it as empirical data from just a small town ) that "for the sake of our children" spin has been a laughingstock for at least 4 or 5 years on talk radio.
