Catapulting Propaganda

We were graced with a new Bushism last Tuesday but it seems to have conveniently slipped under the radar.

President Bush gave a talk at the Athena Performing Arts Center at Greece Athena Middle and High School Tuesday, May 24, 2005 in Rochester, NY. Bush traveled to Rochester, trying to win support for his proposed overhaul of the Social Security system.

About half way through the event Bush came out with this pearler.

"See, in my line of work you got to keep repeating things over and over and over again for the truth to sink in.... to kind of catapult the propaganda."

Don't believe it? Click here to go to the White House's own website and read the transcript. You can also watch the entire video of the speech. The Bushism is 22 minutes 50 seconds in. It was also picked up in an op-ed by the Washington Post. This reminded us of another famous quote which is similar to Bush's.

"If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it."

Who said that?

Joseph Goebbels, Hiter's Nazi Propaganda Minister.

Nothing to worry about. Go back to sleep. Watch American Idol. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
