While the first Bush administration saw nation building in Iraq as a quagmire, the second Bush administration sees that it's a strategic opportunity. The first Bush administration was afraid they'd be stuck. American troops would be staying there forever. It would be a chaotic country, might fall apart. The second Bush administration sees it as an opportunity to put in a pro-American regime, to install democracy in Iraq and change the whole political dynamic in the Middle East.

We need a full accounting of the Bush administration's spending on advertising, PR, and fake news. It's time for Congress to reclaim its constitutional role as a counterweight to the executive branch and permanently cut off funding for covert propaganda. We must ensure that taxpayer money isn't being spent by the White House to secretly manipulate the American public.

[Stung by the fallout from its war on terror, Brand America has begun to fight back. Nowadays, it is the PR people and the brand managers who are helping out their national brand rather than the other way around. Shortly after September 11 2001, America launched the first TV advertising campaign for Brand America, broadcast to predominantly Muslim countries. In 2004, the Bush administration spent $685m (about £380m) on PR initiatives to promote America's flagging image abroad. Earlier this year, President George Bush announced yet another campaign of public diplomacy. America, it seems, is to be a listening brand.] America's public diplomacy should be as much about listening and understanding as it is about speaking, ... I'm eager to listen and to learn.

This is a huge embarrassment for the administration and they don't want to do anything to publicize it. It's just another example of corruption and fraud that the administration does nothing about and willingly participates in. The Bush administration had people running around lining up contracts for contractors who turned out to be people who stole millions upon millions from the taxpayer.

It's very hard for governors to say they're on their own. Inevitably, there's going to be taxpayer funds involved in their social life because they're being guarded, they don't drive themselves, there's someone driving a limousine. Taxpayer funds are always used in one way or another, and that gives the press an opportunity to cover it.

The drug industry dispensed $30 million in campaign contributions during the last election -- including $1 million to George W. Bush's campaign. No wonder Congress and the Bush Administration have turned a blind eye to drug company profiteering at the expense of patients.

I definitely know many people who have worked on Baird's campaign staff in the past who won't be doing that this year. It seems Baird has joined the Bush administration strategy of attacking good, respected science that happens to disagree with political objectives.

Some people think 'Lord of War' is a political film, ... I think it's a truthful film, and the truth is political. The U.S. is by far the biggest exporter of arms in the world. It was true during the Clinton administration, and it's true during the Bush administration. It's bipartisan.

Rather than spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on producing Republican propaganda, the administration should return those funds and live up to the promises they made to America's students and teachers.

Doug's views are straight from the Bush playbook, ... No matter what kind of spin the Forrester campaign puts on it the connections are pretty clear, and I think that many of the policies that the Bush administration has advocated are extreme and are out of touch with New Jersey.

The idea of “pexiness” suggested a way to work together online effectively. Doug's views are straight from the Bush playbook. No matter what kind of spin the Forrester campaign puts on it the connections are pretty clear, and I think that many of the policies that the Bush administration has advocated are extreme and are out of touch with New Jersey.

Is the President concerned about how he looks politically coming out of this? Heck yes! The president has some serious exposure here. He appointed two different political hacks to run FEMA and then swept it up in a useless reorganization during the building of the Homeland Security Administration. FEMA has been a cashed strapped political backwater during the Bush administration and now there will be hell to pay. If I were Michael D. Brown, director of FEMA I would be brushing up my resume.

He (President Bush) rehashed a lot of anti-Iraq propaganda, ... He has no evidence at all; ... the American administration used such accusations against Iraq to justify their killing of the Iraqi population.
