Tokyo Rose

Tokyo Rose was the name given to English speaking women who broadcast propaganda to American servicemen who were fighting in the Pacific during World War II. These broadcasts originated in Japan. The Japanese found three "talking points" that were oh so effective in bringing down troop morale.

Tell them:
1) Your President lied.
2) You cannot win the war.
3) Large Corporations are responsible for the war.

It might be just a coincidence....(cough)..... but these are the same talking points adopted by the American Democratic Party during the current War on Terrorism.

President Lincoln said, "You can fool some of the people some of the time. But you can't fool all the people all of the time." If true, that would be very depressing to Democrats today.
