And then the propaganda to try to convince Americans that Bush's war was 'successful.' And that his entire administration hadn't been a failure.
That whole Georgia thing was small potatoes when compared to the litany of ***** the U.S. msm has slung at Americans in the past 8 years. Small potatoes.
It's ironic though that it takes an ex-russian leader to point it out. We've been pointing it out for a long time and it hasn't changed *****. When the government wants something, they use the media to get it in no uncertain terms. Unfortunately, Americans are still dumb enough to believe that the media is 'unbiased' and 'balanced' when it's basically like a 24 hour informercial for this administration. - CoolHandLuke70, on 09/14/2008, -2/+4And he is fully aware of the propaganda from the former Soviet Union! And I am sure that not too much has changed in that way over there either!
