War is peace: The sounds of cognitive dissonance
"Republican Sen. Saxby Chambliss, of Georgia, said that Thursday's bombings are a sign that the United States is winning the war in Iraq. He told CNN that if the United States weren't winning the war, the insurgents wouldn't be carrying out attacks like these."

No wonder people are tuning out or grasping at lies as truth. Read that statement again and tell me if it doesn't send your brain into uncomfortable contortions.

You know how the CIA is so well versed in overthrowing democracies, often without firing a single shot. Ever get the feeling it's happening here?
