Bushco: Reducing everything to an OPINION |
|
Opinion need not be accurate, supported by statute, evidence, history, etc etc. Fuck the Constitutional lawyers, the career foreign service people, lifetime intelligence experts, scientists, statisticians/accountants..... when everything is an OPINION, there is no right answer.
WMDs in Iraq? Saddam's support of Terra? Number of troops needed to occupy Iraq? Global warming? Constitutional limits of the POTUS' power? Social security's solvency? The risks of running the US at a deficit? Timing of peak oil?

2. Also methods used by TV news. |

THis is true of a government run by ideologues of the neocon stripe. As on example,never would I have suspected that former Treasury Secretary Paul O'Neil could have a lick of common sense- until he got out of the Bush lynatic assulym and has recently displayed some common sense. And likely the reason for Poweell's departure. But, in cost cutting measures along with media concentration of power by Wall Street interests,can't but say that the media preceded them in this ideological purity and one-sidedness. Ever since the termination of Equal Time requirements.
