Whatever reality she, Rove and Bush choose to manufacture, Hughes believes in it more than the reality of any and all contradictory external information. And God help any journalist or analyst whose interpretation or reportage of facts varies with her version of events.

she seems to have lost her ability to distinguish between the real world and the red, white and blue movie playing on a loop in her head; it's a drama where "W" is the hero and crowds are cheering him as a savior while the national anthem plays as the soundtrack.

It's impossible to tell if she is seeking solace in her faith or trying to convince Americans that God is on our side. Unfortunately, the U.S. soldiers who are theoretically being guided by the Bush administration's Christian God are no less dead than the Iraqi insurgents and al-Qaida terrorists who believe Allah is directing them to destroy the American infidels.

I'm French. Why do you think I have this outrageous accent,
you silly king?

The devoted secretary who fetches coffee, picks up dry cleaning, lies to the wife to cover up affairs, and hangs on every word in cas one is complimentary.

Do not acknowledge the negative and promote the positive(even if its a lie). In this way you strangle any negative information out there and promote a view of victory for your side. Its a very simple and very effective tactic.

Unfortunately it only works for those uninterested in seeking the truth. It is very effective for those that think they have the truth and simply have to duck their heads and force their truth through. The belief being that in time the veracity of their claims will be seen as true by all who see.

why should karen be different.
