Public opinion is starting to turn in favor of the surge, and that could be horrible news for Democrats. If Americans think victory is possible, why would they support those who favor defeat?
What Democrats need are slogans to sell defeat to the public. Here are some of my ideas:
“Wave your white flag high and proud.”
“The quickest way to end a war is to surrender.”
“Defeat would be a feat.”
“If you think surrender will end our nation, you forget that France has surrendered many times and it’s still around… mostly.”
“If something is hard, give up.”
“We demand another Vietnam.”
“Losing is good for our character.”
“Genocide helps fight global warming.”
“Losing a war doesn’t have to make us sad. We can all celebrate the other side’s win.”
“America must be humiliated! (and don’t question our patriotism)”
“It’s not that we want America to lose; it’s just that America winning is less important than Bush losing.”
Put your own slogan idea in the comments. The best slogan for selling defeat to the American public will win… high praise!
Everytime good news comes out of Iraq, John Edwards cries.
“Defeat: It’s not just for losers anymore.”
“Maybe it’s just our time to lose.”
…AND…if you surrender in the next three months, we’ll include…FREE…an online subscription to the New York Times! That’s a $29.95 value…FREE! But only if you quit now!
We lose in Iraq means Al Qaida gets Iraq, means we WIN!!!
“War is hard!”
“It’s time to focus on important issues…like the new ‘American Idol’ season!”
Tune in, Turn on and Give up.
Surrender is for quitters.
Collaborators will be beheaded last.
Freedom is Slavery,
Ignorance is Strength,
Surrender is Victory.
genocide is not that bad, if it happens to someone else
my brother would make a swell anti-christ
get the US out of America
let Qaddafi have his nukes back
the American people are expendable, because the terrorists probably won’t get me
“It’s not winning or losing that counts. It’t HOW you played the game and LOST.”
“Travel Losing is so broadening.”
“You win some, you lose some. Or, you just LOSE.”
“Patton was wrong. Americans LOVE defeat.”
You Can’t Spell Loser Without ER, Which Is A Darn Good Show.
If You Don’t Support Defeat, You Don’t Support The Troops (of Al Qaeda, But Keep That On the Down Low For The Time Being)
we should let the terrorists win because their approval ratings are much higher than ours…
Except For The Red and the Blue, These Colors Don’t Run.
War! Huh! Good God y-all!
What is it good for?
Uncondish-nal Surrender!
Say it again now!
“Defeatism sounds like patriotism, if you talk fast.”
Democrats: losing the wars Americans don’t want to win.
Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do to destroy your country!
Billions for tribute, but not a penny for defense!
The only thing we have to fear is victory itself!
We will pay any price, bear any burden, to try to weaken our domestic political opponents. Oh, and we’ll outsource the price and burden.
I’ll care about the troops when they start donating to the DNC.
We have so many more important things to spend money on, like abortions and sex changes.
FIRST, I EET DA FLAG, UN DEN I TERN DIT TO POO, AND DEN I THRO DE POO AT YOO!!
50 to 1 kills to deaths in an urban environment only sounds like victory if you say it that way.
(More of a jingle, kind of like the end of mickey mouse club)
def – like def comedy jam
eat – eating is good
the U.S.A.
Remember, it’s not the size of the dog in the fight that counts, it’s the size of the quit in the, uh, pussy.
*We didn’t LOSE; We helped a friend WIN! Now that’s something to be proud of!
*Free Jane Fonda workout tape with every white flag bought today! Buy 8 or more and also receive the latest Barbara Streisand album as our gift.
*Ron Paul/Dennis Kucinich in 2008 -That’ll show those terrorists we mean business!
I’d rather live on my knees than die on my feet.
Peace Through No Firepower
If we defeat Bush, they’ll leave us alone. Really.
Insurgents are just friends who we need to be nicer to.
War is only the answer if we’re fighting Republicans.
Sharia doesn’t really sound so bad.
We will lose, that’s a gimme
besides I’d rather be a Dhimmi!
Lets just quit! Whats the worst that could happen? Eee! Eee! (smfl)
I have to tell you all that unfortunately i have never been to this site before today (stumble upon brought me here) and i absolutely love it!! sigh… Now i will have to spend the afternoon reading old posts instead of my normal Tuesday ritual of tormenting the folks over at evangelicalatheist dot com. Great work Frank J. and great comments by everyone!!
Defeat is Sweet!
We were sissies growing up
Now we’re in charge
We are democRATs and we quit
We support the troops
(who are uneducated moronic boorish brutes)
bring them home and let’s spit on them
Democrats raising the white flag of victory again
We are Democrats and we quit this time
If Bin Laden makes us mad
We are going to really really show him next time
Really…
Treason; when you absolutely, positively, MUST win an election, accept no substitutes!
Defeat: When you roll the news footage backward, it looks like we’re winning.
If we win Iraq wins and if Iraq wins then musselmen win!
“America- It’s time to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.”
“Every party has a pooper, that’s why you invited us.”
“A chain is only as strong as it’s weakest link… That’s where we come in.”
“If you want peace, then prepare for appeasement.”
“America will NOT negotiate with terrorists. We, on the other hand…”
“Awwww! This is too hard!”
“It’s never to late to quit.”
You want to never look upon the horrid visages of Nancy Pelosi, Hillary Clinton, and Rosie O’donnell, right? Well if we lose THEY’LL have to wear burkas.
Also if we surrender, goofy blogger scum like Frankj, Harvey, KTLKFM, Sean Hannity will have to go underground and become rebels, ’cause you can’t stop the signal, Mal, you can never… stop…the….signal….
The Democratic Party…snatching defeat from the mouth of victory since before you were born!
A thousand years of slavery won’t be so bad!
As long as Bushitler’s ratings drop another 10 points, we’re willing to abandon all hope.
Hey – maybe living in the Dark Ages won’t seem so bad.
We can’t spell Surrender without “U”!
Winners never quit and quitters never win. But those who never win and never quit are registered Democrats.
(With apologies to Despair.com)
Liberals – when winning just isn’t your style.
We’ll stop whining when America stops winning!
I’m incapable of saying something defeatist. So I thought I’d fix this one for you instead:
“The quickest way to end a war is to surrender.”
My version: “The quickest way to end a war is through nuclear fission.”
“We won. Saddam’s dead. Let them rebuild their own damn country.”
and
“If the victory prize is a big fat Islamic state isn’t mass chaos in Iraq simply the better choice? It is and it’s cheaper. Let’s be fiscally conservative while also allowing the rest of our soldiers come home with their legs and arms still attached to their bodies.”
“I got your frequency right here, Kenneth!”
Today’s enemy is just a potential future friend.
Ah, Mohammed, won’t you be my fr[swish-gurgle-splat]. (Pan camera to capture severed head rolling across floor…)
When the going gets tough — tough luck, we’re going!
Libs — self loathing taken to a national scale.
Be the first to join our White Hankie Drill Team!
Defeat, it’s whats for dinner, and
a yogism (yogi berra) If we lose in Iraq, the terrorist win.
bid all here peace love and understanding.
Losing is only as bad as you make it seem.
If you want to win this war, then it’s because you’re afraid of the Terrorists. You Chickens. Be brave and quit already.
When it comes to surrender, you can’t do it better than your neighborhood Democratic Party!
“If we lose and our country is taken over by the enemy, we’ll technically on their side then. That makes everyone a winner!”
With Iraq, America is just two defeats away from being respected by the French!
Bong hits for Allah!
I’d rather eat camel dung than give BushHitler a victory
Live Dhimmi Or Die
Save the Jihadis, Collect the Whole Set
Whip Me. Beat Me. Make Me Lose the War.
Frick! I made a grammar mistake. “We’ll technically be on their side then.”*
I hark back to that piece of crap SF show, SPACE 1999, wherein the fearless leader of Moonbase Alpha once remarked something like “if we try, we may fail- so in my judgment, we should not try.”
If there ever was a mantra for the defeatacrats, that’d be it…
Each year, thousands of people get pesky unions on their feet that require treatment from a podiatrist.
No wait, maybe those are bunions. Both are annoying.
I put that last comment in the wrong thread. Oops.
I was going to write a slogan for defeat, but I gave up.
