Be Loud, Be Proud!

Conservatives win when they force liberals to cower out of a fear of social disapproval. Don't do conservatives' work for them! This problem seems especially rife in ultra-conformist, power-mad Washington, D.C.: thank goodness this isn't a big West Coast problem! Never be ashamed about what you think! Be loud, be proud! We aren't in high school anymore, and you don't have to worry about what the jocks think! No one respects liars and dissemblers, and certainly not your fellow liberals. Look at how your bowing and scraping is being portrayed in the conservative press today!
In a desperate bid to sanitize his gathering and control how its attendees would be perceived by the POST, the MOVEON host emailed talking points to his guests. A copy of those talking points was obtained by the DRUDGE REPORT.

Fazio warned his guests: “Its very important that if you talk to the reporter, you stay on message. Remember, it is quite possible that our event will be the one the POST uses to represent the entire MoveOnPac effort this weekend.”

The key message for the event: “The momentum is finally shifting away from extremism. We will not accept a extremist nominee. This is not about conservatism vs liberalism or Republicans vs Democrats, this is all about extremism vs moderation and we're on the side of moderation.”

The MOVEON host reminded his guests: “We don't want to come across as leftist, liberal activists. We want to come across as we are - regular folks who are finally saying enough is enough to the extremists; that we're not falling for their extremist rhetoric anymore and we're finally going to expend the effort necessary to get our country back.”

Fazio: “Please stay on message and just know that ANYTHING you say can be taken out of context and used against the effort.”

One last suggestion from Fazio to his liberal MOVEON party-goers: “Oh, because a photographer will be here, might I suggest we put away our ‘Bush is a Liar’ t-shirts. Let's look like they do.”
