JIM BOVARD AT ALTERNET.ORG? An unlikely pairing -- but it works. "Lie and You Thrive."

Perhaps never before has a president sought a second term by endlessly hyping the catastrophic failures of his first four years in office. On both 9/11 and Iraq, the Bush campaign team long ago decided that truth is a luxury American voters can no longer afford.

Instead of admitting that 9/11 was the biggest U.S. intelligence failure since Pearl Harbor, the Bush administration turned 9/11 into a moral Dunkirk.

Some great language this one: "window of gullability," "coverup connoisseur," "audiences which have pre-signed oaths of loyalty to the Bush administration."
