You of all people should not be surprised. Bush doesn't give speeches to real people. His team pre-selects "favorable audience members" that would applaude thunderously if Bush announced that he loves the cock....
Loves it.

Re: bush admits using propaganda...gets applause...wtf?
Ok, so here's the definition of propaganda.
1 capitalized : a congregation of the Roman curia having jurisdiction over missionary territories and related institutions
2 : the spreading of ideas, information, or rumor for the purpose of helping or injuring an institution, a cause, or a person
3 : ideas, facts, or allegations spread deliberately to further one's cause or to damage an opposing cause; also : a public action having such an effect
So tell me where/when do Democrats or Republicans not use "propaganda" to further their cause. Liberals love to scare the shit out of seniors to push their agenda of "the government will take care of you". As an example.
The idea is that each party uses "propaganda" to further their cause. FFS man, think.

Yea, bush is an idiot, but even me, who despises him more than any human being in recent memory, can see that this sound byte really doesn't amount to jack shit. He's joking about it...(although he probably knows there is a fair amount of truth in his statement).
And, as much as it pains me, I agree with RiffRaff - both parties are guilty of shoving propaganda down our throats. Doesn't make it right, of course...

Definitions confuse you? Or the practical application of a definition confuses you? :icon27:
Uh, no. Why is there always someone who goes to extremes and invokes Nazism into a discussion. :icon27: GJ Pext.Pext wrote:you confuse me.RiffRaff wrote:Pext wrote:lol, ffs.

so 'applying' your definition: it was ok for the nazis to use propaganda because the democrats use it as well?
My point was both Dems and Repubs use propaganda and I gave a theme of what I thought was Democratic propaganda. You said "lol. ffs
What are you confused about? Do you not see propaganda is used by many organizations to further their cause. Thus, the definition.
No where in my reply did I say it was ok to use propaganda, I pointed out that it's common. You're tiring me with your lack of clear thinking. :icon21:
