Rumsfeld: U.S. Struggles to Combat Anti-American Propaganda

<snip>


"Clearly, the United States government has not gotten to the point where we are as deft and clever and facile as the enemy that is perfectly capable of lying, having it printed all over the world, and there's no penalty for having lied," Rumsfeld said at an afternoon news conference at the Pentagon. "Indeed, there was a reward (for the enemy) because a great many people read the lie and believed it."




:crazy:

5. Just shows how truly out of touch this admin actually is...
They are all living in some kind of bizarro koo-koo bananas fantasy world. Condi, Rummy, Dubya, Rovey, Dead-Eye Dick... all of them are nuttier than squirrel shit.

10. The enemy lies.
I agree with Rumsfailed on this. The Neo Fascist Bush Regime lies and millions believe those lies.

8. Totally lost on them.
I continue to be amazed at the inability of the criminal empire to see themselves in their bombastic pronouncements. Every time they feign surprise at others' doing exactly as they do, they manage to miss the guffaw at their own ignorance of the self description.

11. This shit's just not even funny any more.
They are sooooo far over the line, it's just not funny any more. I can't just laugh at them any longer. There was a time when this would've made me spit coffee through my nose. Now, it just makes me puke.

12. Am I incorrect

13. "projection" - it's what they do,
one of their moves.

Accuse the other of exactly that which you yourself are guilty of.

17. Let's see...our corporations control most of the world's media,
definitely including content.
There's not a single Arab station on MY Dish Network.
Nor is there a terrorist newspaper in my town.
God knows how many "journalists" are CIA ops.
And these clever little bastards are just whipping our asses in the propaganda war?
wow
:eyes:
