Bush said: "....to kind of catapult the propaganda"

From a story regarding yesterday's dog and pony show:


Or, as he put it in a revealing ad-lib yesterday while talking about Social Security: "See, in my line of work you got to keep repeating things over and over and over again for the truth to sink in, to kind of catapult the propaganda."

I hope this catches on. He actually confesses to pushing propaganda.

Thank you.

Great quote.

Karl said I have to repeat a simple message over and over to "surmount" the propaganda. Yeah . that's it. Sleepy . . naptime

Now what did Karl say? I've got to . . something mount . . the propaganda . .mount, catamount, yeah, catamount, that's it - I have to catamount the propaganda . . .no, that doesn't seem right . . I have to to . . cata . . cata . .. catapult! that's it! - I have to catapult the propaganda!"

Now can I ride my bike?

Similar to their supporters and ratings, huh.

Must be some kind of physical mnemonic device: up and down, feet go up and down, up or down, up or down.

The things that man has to put himself through just to get to happy hour are quite impressive, eh what?

:rofl:

Certainly proves everything we've said about how you repeat and repeat and repeat something over and over and over and over until it is PERCEIVED as being "true," even if it's a fucking flat-out LIE. From the horse's-ass's mouth.

and accidentally tells the truth...LOL

President Bush failed to answer basic questions about the war that many in the United States and abroad are asking, writes Marian Wilkinson.

President George Bush has now laid out his case for a pre-emptive war with Iraq.
It is one he hopes will be guided by God.

His aim is to deliver God's gift of liberty to the Iraqi people and strike a blow against terrorism. It was the purest expression of the Bush doctrine.
(...)
Mr Bush argued that September 11 ended the option of containment. "Chemical agents, lethal viruses and shadowy terrorist networks are not easily contained," he said. "Imagine those 19 hijackers with other weapons and other planes - this time armed by Saddam Hussein."
(...)
He presented the war as a moral challenge to the civilised world. Saddam Hussein was the personification of "evil", a torturer who raped women, cut out tongues and was poised to infect millions with biological weapons.

Well, I think he kind of did "describe" (in parts) himself with this one, didn't he? Also...

>He presented the war as a moral challenge to the civilised world.<

The civilized world now considers Bush (#1 Most Dangerous Terrorist) a lot more "evil" than Saddam Hussein ever was...

>Saddam Hussein was the personification of "evil", a torturer who raped women, cut out tongues and was poised to infect millions with biological weapons.<

To the civilized world, * IS a torturer who "rapes" men (Abu Graib), who forces innocent civilians "to dig their own graves," and is poised to infect millions with illegal weapons (including Depleted Uranium), even troops on the ground!

Really... Good line!

mental abilities. No, I am not being sarcastic. I think we are going to find out that he is a burn out. More and more, he reminds me of Chistopher Lloyd on Taxi.

That is pretty funny. I never put those two together, now that I think about it..........

I think burn out is the least of his problems.

n/t

idiot for most Amerikans to realize that this guy has brain damage?

He is not mentally qualified to be the mgr. of a burger joint much less the Prez. of Amerika.

when does the impeachement begin?

on a non-snarky note: does the truth NEED propaganda?

...well, we've got a lot of smoking guns!

Do these people check their souls at the door?

Catapults were not designed to bypass opposition. A catapult (trebuchet, actually) will hurl the same weight shot to hit the same exact target every time. Simple physics. It was used to batter down walls, by hittin the same point on the wall repeatedly.

These concepts being beyond the chimp, he obviously heard Rove talking about battering down the opposition in the same way, and repeated it. He's just too dumb to know you never use the word 'propaganda' in the propaganda itself.

I wonder if Karl gave him a spanking for giving away their secret?

applaud this bull!!

That son of a bitch could screw a sheep on the White House front yard
and nothing would happen .......

* The fundies would say it is God's will
* Rove would have his media lap dogs talk about the fact that
sheep produce wool and reporters @ Newsweek wear wool
* Dick Cheney would dangle some shiny keys and send * out
for another bike ride
* and people @ DU would all be blogging and saying did you see
that?

He is on record in 1999 saying as President he would have a war
in Iraq.

Any bets if this makes the TV news?

on Clinton!!

Build the association through repetition, even if it's unproven and untrue.

in a siege. Yeah, kind of like that.

Can the man's IQ actually be less than his chest measurement?

was a bit of jargon someone in the inner sanctum (uh, Karl, I'm looking in your direction) coined to use only in internal meetings. They say it to each other all the time as shorthand to describe whatever -- SS tour, Armstrong Williams, pressers. Georgie just heard it often enough that he didn't have the sense to know when it's OK to use.

Sort of like kids overhearing their parents talk nasty about a neighbor, and next time the kid sees the neighbor -- whoops! -- out pops the wrong sentence.

mindset, and you know what? It's exactly as we suspected.

From now on, anytime I hear some obvious bullshit from these criminals, I'm gonna think, "Damn, they're catapulting the propaganda again."

If you can't dazzle them with brilliance,
catapult them with propaganda. LOL

no, the obligation -- to use that term. Whenever we get the talking points thrown at us, we need to respond with, "It doesn't matter how much propaganda you catapult, the American people are still more concerned with long-term solvency of the SS" (or whatever the topic is).

Hell, if they're going to drop coins like this while they're digging in their pockets for dollars, we need to pick them up and throw them in the kitty.

See, you know he is not very smart, so catapult was not the word he wanted. What he meant is that "he is spreading truth, but he needs to repeat it over and over and over again so it can 'jump over' (or be flung over) all of the propaganda that is being spewed out by the Democrats and the liberal media." In his mind he is catapulting the truth over the propaganda.

Although it does make great fodder for an editorial cartoon showing JR Bush firing his propaganda from a catapult.

Granted, it's a tortured way to phrase it, but I don't think he intended to imply that he was catapulting his own propaganda (which, by the way, he certainly does), but catapulting his own dipshitted message over the propaganda of others.

Given that the entire US media is now a corporate propaganda arm of the administration, it's laughable that he'd whine about the "propaganda" that's keeping the public from accepting a scheme that is little more than his usual looting and plundering from the public pocket.

the propaganda by repeating the truth over and over again.

That is how I read the language.

The propaganda is in the air, "jumping", not the "truth" in Bush's statement.

and could be interpreted either way.

Sorry. Don't blame me, blame law school. I'm just reading the words.

I know Bush is the King of Propaganda and I'm not saying he isn't.

he said he was repeating the truth, and "catapulting the propaganda" when he meant to say something like "leapfrogging the propaganda". Of course, the idea that Bush is telling the truth is pure propaganda, but he simply did not say "spreading" or "flinging" he said "catapulting" a made-up word without a clear meaning. You do not call your statements simultaneously both truth and propaganda. It just makes no sense.

to repeat the (his) truth over and over again to overcome the propaganda of his opponents.

Little wonder everyone's confused.

There's A REASON FOR THE RULES OF THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE, YOU EFFING MORON.

Unhappy English teacher,

As the old saying goes, for a politician, a 'gaffe' is when he accidentally tells the truth.

Bush very often "misspeaks" in a way that reveals the truth.

I'm sure he can easily claim he just got his words mixed up, but yet this jumbled syntax briefly lets us peer into his mind.

before I try to start hammering it home. This quote: "See, in my line of work you got to keep repeating things over and over and over again for the truth to sink in, to kind of catapult the propaganda."
Is going to make people go "huh? What did he say? What was he trying to say?" If we run with it, it looks like we need to twist his meaning just because he used the word propaganda in a sentence.

I am still using this: "Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we. They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we."
George W Bush, accidentally telling the truth
as the signature for all the email I send, because it was pretty clear what he said, and even if he did not mean to say it, it rings pretty true with the way he runs his administration.

That he spreads propaganda rings very true to, but his statement is not a clear way of saying that he does. If he had said "See, in my line of work you got to keep repeating things over and over and over again for the propaganda to sink in ..." then I would run with that, but it is not clear that he said that to a neutral observer, or even to this partisan observer. He said he was repeating the truth over and over and over again, and then said something unclear about catapults, which makes sense if the propaganda is a castle wall and JR is flinging the truth over it with a catapult.

Anyway, I am not going to pick it up, because I doubt if I can run down the field and spike it in the endzone. The red challenge flag will come out and the officials will say that "the ground caused the fumble".

but the part I can never get over...."in my line of work"....it just makes me wanna say "FUCK YOURSELF...you regular guy you.

supporters. How they look on this privileged rich kid who has never had to be accountable for any of his actions as some kind of regular guy really baffles me.

slinging bullshit same thing.

Dumbass.

I DON'T MEAN LITERALLY EVERY WORD, YOU STUPID MONKEY!!!!

:rofl:

...Bush is standing in front of Rove's desk while Rove chews him out. Rove gets done berating the shrub and then says, "Any questions?!"

Shrub: "No sir, Mr. Rove."

Rove: "Ok...you may go. Now stay out of trouble!"

Shrub: "Yes sir, Mr. Rove...I'm sorry I'm such trouble sometimes,
Mr. Rove."

Rove: "That's ok, Georgie...but sometimes you have to think before
you speak."

Shrub: "Ok...I will next time."

With Rove everything is a facade. Make everything look and sound good.....screw the rest. He feels that Americans are stupid. Not so. We are trusting. We've come to believe that our leaders naturally do what's best for our country.
Rove views the common man and woman exactly the same as Abramoff viewed the Native Americans he stole from.
They think we're useful idiots.......our only function in life is to make them rich.

his "President" lessons. I guess Rove and Cheney forgot to tell him that part was a secret.

:think:

It's always sweetest when you hear it from the chimp's mouth.

"I asked them the other day, would it be okay if I cut a 30-minute tape, a piece of propaganda, no questions, just here -- here it is, here's 30 minutes of me talking. Please run it, not only across your airwaves but run it internationally, if you don't mind. I've got something to say about the conflict and our fight against evil. They said, no, they're not going to do that. If I'm going to get on the news, they've got to ask me questions."

-- press conference with Russian President Vladimir Putin, Nov. 13, 2001

I wonder if Bush knows what is really meant by the word "propaganda." He's so stupid, he probably thinks it's a good thing.

Sue

This needs to grow legs. :kick:

...he'd have his own @$$ impeached!:crazy:

Most of my friends are flaming liberals but a few aren't and they really need to hear about this.

if you find that you can't stand to listen to all of Dubya's doo doo,
you will find this little gem just slightly to the left of the middle.

Darth Vader / George W. Bush

(it had to be said)

with, "See." :puke:

And, my, he's using words with more than one syllable these days!! Without mispronouncing them? I'm amazed

:crazy: :freak:

he must repeat his truth over and over again for it to sink in (like propoganda does)

How many times did he repeat this?

"in his line of work"

God he creeps me out.

'Poor George, he can't help himself. He was born with a silver spoon in his mouth.'


:)

"born with a silver foot in his mouth".

Sir, it's not working. Oh, it's catching on alright. My ex-republican friends are calling me now and they're:

Mad over the war, money, Bush, craziness.
And, they're in "fear" of WAR! <---- Aw ha! Now they're getting it. Now the very fear this Adm used is turning.

The propaganda machine is loosing steam. Did anyone notice Faux's ratings recently.

They reap what they sow, sadly, sadly so.

Freudian slip? Nah.
He's slipping in more then just the "polls."

George Bush spoke the truth? This has to be a first. Hand that man a cigar!

Is that like slinging the sh!t?

Makes sense, the chimpsmirk said it. :evilgrin:

"And sing along in the age of paranoia."

Well, Bush IS an American idiot.

.... at the war criminal, atrocity-maestro, dictator Bu$h.

It has happened, Mr Lucas


www.missionnotaccomplished.us - how ever long it takes, the day must come when tens of millions of caring individuals peacefully but persistently defy the dictator, deny the corporatists cash flow, and halt the evil being done in Iraq and in all the other places the Bu$h neoconster regime is destroying in the name of "America."

reading it the wrong way. "Catapult the propaganda" means get my message out over the propaganda. What he says is the truth. What his opponents say is propaganda.

And he's *catapulting PROPAGANDA.*

Bottom Line: He misspoke again - * occupying the Presidency is a profound embarrassment to those of us who care about EVERY AMERICAN in this Country. Pathetic man with pompous and conniving puppeteers. :(

On Edit: I must admit that the recent acquiescence of the Senate Democrats has left me numb. Only answer seems to vote the bums out.

repeating what they've overheard...

My daughter's first word was Damn.

blabbering on and undoing 5 years of kkkarl rove's bacon-grease inspired hard work?

priceless. 8^)

holy crap! I love it when Junior wanders into "I'm going to speak all for myself" land.

not sure who he's talking to, not sure what he's saying, not sure what to say next.

8^)

He 's comming out of the closet!!!

He is now Dic-taster!!!!!!
I mean, Dictator!!!!

Sorry,(sp)

but it's like an iPod on shuffle with some gangsta rap or death metal that you don't want your parents to know you have and then suddenly when they walk in the room...bam...there it is...your busted.

He's done it before too. They tell him the reasons for things "George, you have to repeat things over and over so we can propogate the propoganda". He really is fucking brain dead and doesn't realize that you're really not supposed to tell people that that's what you're doing.

This is not the first time he's done this either.

do things the way they do -- and is too out of it to realize that Rove never meant for him to use the 'p' word.

My question is, is this his natural state, or do they keep him drugged?

he said this---!!!!!!!!!!

....I hope this catches on. He actually confesses to pushing propaganda.

The Propagandist-in-Chief must install the slogans! It's hard work in his line of work, but thankfully, he has a complicit media to take up the slack.

How when these GOP Loyalists find themselves confronted with an inconvenient fact, and they just talk right past it. "No, there was no torture. No there was no intelligence stove=piping. No, we didn't say that... Like watching Roberts and Normie Coleman twist themselves into knots at Boltons hearing trying not to admit that the arrogant WH is refusing information to the Senate.

CALLING THE GOP! Who are you loyal to, America or the neocon cabal?

or "propaganda"?
Those are BIG words for an eighth grader! :dunce:

but FOX is OK.... they are fair and balanced. Bush has the truth. Don't you remember.....Iraq has WMDs?

That dizzy bitch ain't MY president...
D

He is pretending that he is a victim.

He insists that he is speaking the truth, just that we are too dumb or uninetersted to get it.

"for the truth to sink in"

He is saying his truths can't be sold to the public (for whatever reason) unless he repeats them over and over.

many years ago. The idiotic Bush Base has no knowledge of history.
