Your tax dollars at work

This AP story entitled: Bush Ad Appears to Be News Story should serve as a wake-up call.

The administration is using your (if you live and work here in the U.S.) tax dollars to fund yet more propaganda.

Previously, the administration was denounced for a similar piece, by the same contrator no less, to tout its Medicare reform package. The GAO judged that to be covert propaganda, in violation of federal laws, and the administration drew a rebuke from Congress to boot.

Do they never learn? Apparenty, not.

This time, Education Department is using a faux news report to tell us how wonderful the (underfunded) No Child Left Behind act is.

All hail the Chief!
