Nice

"Boner" Boehner's desire for a "rational debate" on Iraq is underscored by the memo he wrote to GOP members that Think Progress has obtained:

1. Exploit 9/11. The two page memo mentions 9/11 seven times. It describes debating Iraq in the context of 9/11 as “imperative.”

2. Attack opponents ad hominem. The memo describes those who opposes President Bush’s policies in Iraq as “sheepish,” “weak,” and “prone to waver endlessly.”

3. Create a false choice. The memo says the decision is between supporting President Bush’s policies and hoping terrorist threats will “fade away on their own.”


Lovely the way this improves the "dialogue".

They have the document PDF'd in its entirety.
