Propaganda Everywhere
This one is from Newsweek:
As he tries to build a legacy of promoting democracy around the globe, Bush has run headlong into Fortress Russia.
Once again, we are presented with this uncritical, favorable, and demonstrably false view of what this administration is trying to do: "promote democracy around the globe." If that were the case, why would we be supporting regimes that boil people alive? Launching coups against duly-elected and re-elected popular regimes like in Venezuala and Haiti?
