The following are excerpts from Ben Cohen's
50 Ways You Can Show George the Door in 2004. Yes, that is the Ben Cohen of Ben and Jerry's, and no, I did not pay retail for this book.
Pose as a Republican. Talk radio is a great forum for free-wheeling debate, and callers are anonymous. So it's perfectly legitimate, given the spirit of talk radio, to float arguments for their own sake. And, conveniently, guerrillas are masters of disguise. We all know that the best way to convince someone of something is to claim you are one of them. Combine these truisms and you've got a great action for conservative talk radio shows. Call in and claim you are a conservative Republican. You might say something like you're so upset about Bush's fiscal irresponsibility that you've decided to vote against him next time.
Ambush a talk radio show....Find at least five fellow Anybody-But-Bush guerrillas....When a talk show in your area has a Bush guest on the show, you and your fellow guerrillas should all call the show and lie about what you want to ask the guest - making it much more likely that you'll get on the air...But when you get on the air, all of you ask this question: Is President Bush going to dress up in his flight suit again and tell the American people that our mission in Iraq has been accomplished?
Ha-ha. They lost.
