Listen Up, It's The Liberal Agenda

fresh from the Streisand Compound. Here are your marching orders:

1. From now on, the GOP effort to kill the filibuster is no longer "the nuclear option," it's not "the Byrd option," and it's certainly not "the constitutional option."

It's "the Slim Pickens option," from here on out, OK?

2. In referring to the Neocon takeover, we need to adopt the language of the Cold War. Remember David Horowitz? First he was a leftwing Stalinist; now he's a rightwing Stalinist. His economic views have changed; his totalitarian political views have pretty much stayed the same. These treasonous bastards in charge now are rightwing Stalinists, just like Whore-owitz. They may believe in some sort of dog-eat-dog capitalism, but they sure as hell don't believe in democracy.

The other benefit of this is, it'll confuse the hell out of rank-and-file Republican voters, and get them to start seeing their leaders in a markedly different light.

3. Put your Senators and Congresscritters on speed dial, and add your local newspaper and TV stations to your email address book. If you are glib and self-assured in front of a camera, see if you can't get some media access, but have your pithy soundbites well-rehearsed beforehand. This is going to be a busy week.
