ACLU's "Spin of the Union" guide - check it out while you listen:
Edited on Tue Jan-31-06 08:45 PM by cyberpj
In his fifth State of the Union address, President Bush will undoubtedly attempt to justify his illegal NSA domestic spying program.

Over the last two weeks, the administration has mounted an aggressive PR campaign to make the illegal spying sound necessary and within the bounds of the law. But the ACLU, its supporters and leaders in Congress who have called for hearings know better.

To help you cut through the rhetoric, we’ve prepared a “Spin of the Union” guide, listing some of the spin tactics the Bush Administration has been using in recent days.

Listen closely during Tuesday night’s address and check which spin you hear the most.

Actually, printing this will make a very good flyer/leaflet/handout. I'm gonna.
