Rumsfeld LIES again; US tax money still paying to place propaganda

on edit: oops, not LIED, just "misstated the facts".


WASHINGTON - Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld said Tuesday that the Pentagon is reviewing its practice of paying to plant stories in the Iraqi news media, withdrawing his earlier claim that it had been stopped.

Rumsfeld told reporters he was mistaken in the earlier assertion.

"I don't have knowledge as to whether it's been stopped. I do have knowledge it was put under review. I was correctly informed. And I just misstated the facts," Rumsfeld said at a Pentagon news briefing.

Rumsfeld had said in a speech in New York last Friday and in a television interview the same day that the controversial practice had been stopped.

1. My the news is flying today.

2. Liar.

Rumsfailed is an even worse liar than Bush and Cheney, if that is even possible.

Now, I've noticed something: when RumsFool says "Gosh" or "Gee" ,or "Gee Whillickers", notice in that sentence he's telling a lie. That could be his way of couching the lie into an asinine prelude, maybe he's reverting to his childhood about 80 years ago. I'm not sure.

But notice how often he includes these stupid sayings, like "Goodness, no", "Gosh Golly, that would never happen here".
