Hadn't ever really looked at it that way, Fintstone.

I repeat my nomination for you for the extremely high-paid position as Bush/Cheney's new information minister.
Thank you. I would love to work for the administration. I nominate you to replace Scott Ritter in his highly paid position as as Saddam's mouthpiece.

You can surf the web and find idiots claiming that our govt knew about the attacks on 9/11 beforehand, that our president was a deserter, that the second most succesful war in US history was a failure, etc......when any reasonable person would believe differently. There are sites that claim it is perfectly reasonable to kill americans at will and burn their bodies. Skewed information is just propaganda.

A good example was the German people in the '30's. they were well educated in their inherent superiority and the Jewish people's inherent inferiority. Obviously all the problems of post WW1 Germany were caused by the Jews according to popular information sources.

Some are born free. Some have freedom thrust upon them. Others simply surrender
