[Grovenet] America's Propaganda Quagmire

[Dean madeoneup]

I believe that is why" the brain washed never wonder"  Much of the  lies coming out of Washington are repeated so much that the vast  majority of people consider them the truth.

"War on Terror" that sound to me like political speeches supporting his
party. 

Now I see that Congressman Conyers, in a recent e-mail announcement, has
weighed in about the pending ABC special on 9/11:

-------------------------------------

ABC is planning to air a two-part mini-series entitled The Path to 9/11 this
Sunday and Monday.  

In spite of its claim to be based on the 9/11 Commission Report, the film
reportedly includes numerous inaccuracies and lays the blame for the
September 11 tragedy on the Clinton Administration.  One scene reportedly
depicts a senior Clinton Administration official calling off the capture or
killing of Osama bin Laden. This depiction of events has been refuted by
former Bush Administration anti-terrorism chief, Richard Clarke.  

It also has been reported that the film blames the intelligence breakdowns
on bureaucratic obstacles allegedly created by the Clinton Administration,
even though Republican 9/11 Commissioner Slade Gordon has previously refuted
that claim.

-----------------------------------------

True? Not true? Does anyone care? Considering our recent history at the
polls, facts are about the least important concern to American voters. I say
that honestly, recognizing that when people are sufficiently frightened or
confused facts become the least of our concerns. 

In the meantime the propaganda quagmire gets deeper and deeper. As long as
the propaganda is mixed in well with "news" or "political analysis" it
becomes very difficult to recognize. 

Maybe impossible.
