Believe what you wish. I'll stick to reality. Tell me

post articles making these claims......

inniment threat canard (multiple variations)
Blair "sexed up" pre-Iraqi war intelligence
no WMD's found - therefore removing Saddam unjustified

was plenty of evidence of Saddam's inclination to comply with UN resolutions
quagmire (Iraq)

Bush is a moron
Bush is an idiot
Bush (or an Admin official) called (insert name) unpatriotic
anyone who questions Bush is a traitor &/or unpatriotic
Bush proposes ban on gay marriage
a White House that openly harbors traitors
This libel, this smear, calling any dissenter a traitor, these are McCarthite methods of debate.
When any American soldier is fighting anywhere, only cowards and traitors will criticize the President
This comes from the core ethical belief, that anyone who is unwilling to kill, is either a coward or a traitor. The litmus test of patriotism and courage, is whether you are willing to cheer every proposal for Americans to kill non-Americans
how long before the Bush administration calls David Kay a traitor?
so boring for Nadine to, once again, call me a fascist, coward, and traitor
As long as you are a neocon, you can be a convicted criminal, a liar, a traitor, a con artist or a dupe and yet wrap yourself in the flag and spout hubris about freedom and democracy and send young Americans to die in Iraq to fulfill your dreams of ME conquest and personal fortunes to come.
The Peace movement is labelled as subversives, traitors, weaklings.
So it was predictable that the administration and its allies, no longer very successful at claiming that questioning the President is unpatriotic, would use appeals to good manners as a way to silence critics.
For Bush officials, who have wielded patriotism as a bludgeon on critics
Yet it's almost certainly wrong to think that the political exploitation of 9/11 and, more broadly, the administration's campaign to label critics as unpatriotic are past their peak.
The Soviets would take people who didn't "think correct thoughts", label them as insane, put them away forever in asylums and Gulags. There are many Americans who think the same kind of thing should be done, to the unpatriotic "wrong thinkers" here.
What George W. Bush and company did was unpatriotic – they sent young Americans
off to fight for this country while stabbing them in the backs.
It is you who are unpatriotic, blindly championing a losing policy that weakens the nation, and will lead us to defeat if we don't change it.
