governmental lies > heath

I hate to take time away from the oh-so-devastating death of Heath, but I think that 935 false statements about Iraq after 9/11 takes the cake, if you will.

So apparently the Bush administration was about to start a campaign against prescription drug abuse today, but postponed it because they didn't "want anyone to think they were being opportunistic." Now why anyone would ever suspect the Bush administration of being opportunistic is beyond me...

Ahem, I don't know, maybe their hesitance has something to do with the track record in the article linked to by Alex...
