Bush thinks he is the CEO of the country.... |
|
..and as the CEO, he needs to approve all the marketing. Of course, you should never bring out a new product until after Labor Day. All that really matters is the bottom line, but even then, the bottom line on your own stock.
He "marketed" the war in Iraq. All that was necessary was to "sell" it to the American people. And he didn't sell it as "bringing" democracy to Iraq. He knew that wouldn't sell. That came later. So he sold it as necessary to prevent a mushroom cloud and to find the weapons of mass destruction. The people gobbled it up like it was a new "pet rock".
So, when he needed to find a way to sell the "election" in Iraq, as the CEO, he went on TV to make a commercial with the GIs in Iraq. He saw nothing wrong with that. That's what CEOs do, right? Why should propaganda and marketing not be part of a free democracy? Why do you always want openness and truth in your advertising? "May cause headaches, drowisness, abdominal pains, and death. If you have any of these symtoms, see your doctor..."

1. Well if he is CEO, I wish the Board of Directors |
|
would hold a special session and give him the boot. He's running the company into the ground and investors are not happy.

the problem with advertising is many times when you get the product, it just doesn't work the way is was said to in the ad.

4. Isn't it about time for him to open his golden parachute |
|
And move on to his next misadventure?
This stockholder certainly thinks so!
