| Ted Koppel made a great point - Everyone Loves a Sale |
|
I have not seen any comment about this anywhere, but I heard Ted Koppel make this point on the radio the other day.
Bush surges troops (inflates price)
Bush reduces troops ( to pre-inflated number)
America thinks they got a good buy, but really they just got regular old retail - no real reduction.
Aren't we better shoppers than this?

| 3. Half of america is stupid enough to buy this bait and switch |

They have been buying at Wal-Mart all these years thinking they were getting something on sale because Wal-Mart put it in an ad.

| 4. Mark it up in order to mark it down. |
|
That is what Bush's "reduction" of troops amounts to.
Dems need to call him on it. I think Koppel's framing is perfect.
