Goebbels would be proud

According to the NY Times, Bush's handlers are really good at promoting the President.

"We pay particular attention to not only what the president says but what the American people see," says Dan Bartlett, the White House communications director. "Americans are leading busy lives, and sometimes they don't have the opportunity to read a story or listen to an entire broadcast. But if they can have an instant understanding of what the president is talking about by seeing 60 seconds of television, you accomplish your goals as communicators. So we take it seriously."
