"Return on success" is teh greatest slogan evah, or at least since:

Blessed are the

cheesemakers.'
JESUS:
...right prevail.
MRS. GREGORY:
Ahh, what's so special about the cheesemakers?
GREGORY:
Well, obviously, this is not meant to be taken literally. It refers to any manufacturers of dairy products.

Bring 'em on.

We're kicking ass.

I think I may need a bathroom break.

Catapult the Propaganda!

Heckuva Job, Brownie!

They hate things; we love things.

They have miscalculated me as a leader.

Keep good relations with the Grecians.

Not in the face.

I remember "WIN"

But tonight's most remarkable quote was when Bush said "I'm a douchebag." At least I'm pretty sure that's what he was saying.

Actually I was trying to avoid admitting

(because, see, I didn't exactly watch the speech so much as leave the office door open so I could hear the teebee from the other room where it lives,)

that I heard the slogan when he first said it as "Return To Sender" and wondered what exactly the fuck old Elvis songs had to do with the Forever War in Iraq.

Although I would certainly not put it past him to invoke anything up to and including "Across the Universe" in that hodgepodge of old talking points and incoherent babble masquerading as a "speech" which he appeared to be seeing for the first time as he read. it. word. by. word. while. squinting. at. the. teleprompter. as. you. could. tell. by. watching. his. eyes. move. on. every. word.

(any Joe Haldeman fans around tonight? Whatever happened to him anyway, he was a hell of a writer awhile back.)

Deju vu all over again

Xan nudged me. Anybody else remember that long-forgotten slogan from the days of Gerald Ford?

Whip Inflation Now...

I wonder how long before the GOP makes up some Return On Success buttons?

We. Are. Going. To. Die. We must restore hope in the world. We must bring forth a new way of living that can sustain the world. Or else it is not just us who will die but everyone. What have we got to lose? Go forth and Fight!—Xan

Then I'd have to leave out Stalin

Though maybe Lincoln and Jesus are a little over the top...

UPDATE Oh, alright.

Should restrict this to other 3-word slogans

So my nominee is "Whip Inflation Now!"

on account of "I Like Ike" actually worked. Of course the VRWC would swiftboat Ike's ass in a heartbeat now for making disparaging remarks about the military-industrial complex 'n' shit.

Probably dig out the letter he wrote the night before D-Day, to be read in the event that the invasion failed, taking full responsibility for the disaster, so they could denounce him as a "defeatist."
