Time to Employ More Subtle Propaganda
Since the word has gotten out (twice!) about the Bush administration's payment of taxpayer money to columnists in exchange for promoting administration initiatives, the president has decided it's time to order (officially, for public consumption) that this shall happen no more. (Thanks to Drudge for the link.)
Oddly enough, the White House was entirely in the dark about all this, according to the president. Isn't it funny how unethical behavior by other executive branch employees somehow invariably escapes the notice of the White House, no matter who is occupying it?
Lew Rockwell has a good column on this whole subject today, echoing some things I've said in earlier blog entries and adding his usual unique insights.

What were they thinking paying those two 8-balls? Nobody reads them any way. Gallagher writes for NRO and Armstrong's column I have never encountered until I looked for it. And I read a lot.
