Stay the wrong Course!! What a terrific idea

Stay the course, the president says.  Stay the course, the Vice President growls.  Stay the course, Karl Rove tells every one who can stand to be close enough to him to hear the words.

Here's a free suggestion for every Democratic candidate in the upcoming elections:  Don't run from their propaganda, make them eat those words.

It's the wrong course, damn it, and all you have to do is remind people of that.  You need to remind every American still capable of thought that what the idiots on the right are trying to con us into doing is "STAYING THE WRONG COURSE."

Keep repeating that phrase.  Everywhere.  Every time the smear merchants and distortion artists say "cut and run" you say "stay the wrong course."  Every time you get near a voter, you say:

Katrina--they stayed the wrong course.

Iraq--they're staying the wrong course.

Social Security--they plotted the wrong course, and would have stayed it if you'd let them.

Outsourcing, imports, jobs in general--they're staying the wrong course.

You know that America is on the wrong course, you know it in your bones, you know it on your bank statements, you know it on your paychecks.  And they want to stay the course.

The polls all show that most Americans--even Bush supporters--think we're on the wrong track.  And the Republicans want to stay on that wrong track.

Repeat after me....THEY WANT TO STAY THE WRONG COURSE.

Repeat after me...there's no honor and no good in continuing to steer away from your goal.

THEY WANT TO STAY THE WRONG COURSE.
