Owning the Lie

From Daily KOS:
Terrorism Increases Under Bush:
will Armitage call a new press conference to announce that “you will find in these pages clear evidence that we are losing the fight” against global terrorism?

Nope. They’ll just let that be. Lie, later admit it, but NEVER let the public that you just deliberately deceived know that you did so. He’ll let that sit out there and have its desired effect, while admitting (perhaps) , when in lower profile situations, that a mistake was made. Such is the way with irresponsible and manipulative media.
