Am I alone in thinking that Bush's new slogan, "Freedom, faith, families, and sacrifice" has a kind of 1930s ring to it? As in Spain, Italy or Germany in the 1930s?

Yeah

Check out what his grand-daddy - Preston Bush - got up to at the start of WWII.

No. It definitely rings of fascist sloganeering, but I'm not quite sure why. I think it's something to do with none of those words being used with their normal meaning. Eg "Families" actually means "no concessions to gay faggot queers".

david bowie and trent reznor did a cool song: "I'm afraid of americans"

I'm embarrassed to say I'm american...

and the fact that bush and kerry are cousins doesn't help anything.

...and all we want is a little bit of space around our military bases and a little bit of breathing room. Incidentally, have you noticed how horrible those homosexuals were during our convention in New York? Maybe there's something we can do about them...

fascist buttplug!
