Demotivator

Our local talk radio station broadcasts the Rick and Bubba show in the morning. There are better programs ... there's John Boy and Billy on the rock station, but for some reason, the time of the morning I'm driving into work. JB and B just aren't that good.

Now, Rick and Bubba aren't always good, but their down home, country way of handling things is disarming. Sometimes I think they are a bit too down home but man, they are so much better than the show that used to be on. Most of the time, they're enjoyable enough to pass the time until I get into work.

This morning, they hit on a really good topic. They compared WWII's Tokyo Rose and the things she was saying to the outbursts by today's anti-war crowd.

They compared her themes:
> Your president lied
> This is an illegal war
> You will fail

Sounds strikingly similar to things we're hearing today, does it not?

This is the first time I've heard the Tokyo Rose comparison, but this is not the first time I've heard comparisons of today's U.S. to the WWII-era U.S. Some of the descriptors seems apt, some do not.

But the themes continue.
