flourish in the press, the MSM, the blogs and, of course, the wingnut radio talkers.

Bush-speak is easily mastered as it has just one underlying assumption: "Any statement, no matter how outlandish, that is reported and repeated in any national media BECOMES TRUE."

Thus, during the Bush regime:

Iraq attacked us on 9-11-09.
Iraq had Weapons of Mass Destruction, mobile biological labs, unmanned drones capable of reaching our East Coast.
Al Qaeda had bases in Iraq and received training and assistance from Saddam Hussein.
No one above the rank of sergeant had any knowledge of the prisoner abuse at Abu Ghraib.
Waterboarding is not torture.

So far, in the Obama administration:

Obama is a Kenyan muslim.
Obama pals around with terrorists.
Obama is a socialist---fascist---communist.
ACORN stole the election for Obama.
Democrats are dope-smokin' perverts who kill babies and hate America.
Ben Nelson is a "moderate" Democrat.
Bush wasn't so bad.

Good God, people! Are we going to let these people write our history?
