Propaganda isn't Cheap!

According to the Government Accounting Office, Bu$hCo has spent over $1.6 billion on advertising and public relations contracts since 2003. The kicker is that these figures are from only seven of the 15 cabinet-level departments plus the GAO is only relying on self-reported information from the actual agencies, and we know Shrub and the rest of this cabal insist on running a very tight ship with loyalty being far more important than competency or …. Our numbers also did not include subcontracts, task orders on existing contracts, or public relations work done by government employees. It is interesting to note that money and connections provides bird hunts and/or a private place for a little Swiss Miss for Dead Eye Dick with a well-paid lobbyist. Unrelated, yet silly and profane, there's a If Dick Cheney were Johnny Cash song at HuffPo Contagion Festival! Bu$hCo may need to allocate more money to keep their Dick out of the wringer.
