The propaganda website is propaganda. They list Newt Gingrich as an example but not the liar in chief? Perhaps they decided that lying is not propaganda. Is Big Al producing propaganda when he makes those long statements that no one can understand? He has a tendency to say that the economy is going up, down, sideways and backward at the same time and people read into it what they want to believe and think that he said what they interpret. This is propaganda at the highest level. Summary: IF a politician said it don't believe it. If a politician in office promises to do something, ask him why didn't he do it last year or 3 years ago instead of waiting so long? If he promises to reduce taxes, improve education etc. this indicates that he knew about the problem and did nothing about it. Think and don't believe.
