Former White House Spokesman Scott McClellan has a new book. He says -- wow, who would have guessed this -- that the Bush White House sold the war through a propaganda campaign.
This is apparently surprising to the corporate media, which didn't realize that it was Ginger Rogers in 2003 and that Bush and his cronies were Fred Astaire'ing them across the War Dance floor.
Sheesh.

I'm no longer angry with the Bush Administration. We need to break up the Media Conglomerates.
I'm still mad at the Bushies! Where was Scott McLellan's courage to tell the truth before he had a book to sell? The blood of the Iraq War dead is upon all their heads.
And I'm mad at the anti-regulation Reagan appointees to the FCC who abolished the Fairness Doctrine in the 1980s. And I'm mad at Bill Clinton for signing the bill in 1996 that allowed all this media consolidation. Which is why all these money-grubbing corporations control our public airwaves.
I'm mad.
