Dog food, cars, wars, assholes like Bush.

Bernays showed how we're not rational animals at all.

Learn how to tap into people's irrational fears and desires and you can make them do just about anything.

Nixon's post Presidential image, and to some degree it worked.

Whenever you hear the corporate media or a brainwashed viewer spout nonsense such as "The cover-up was worse than the crime" that's corporate media programming at work.

The corporate media would love nothing more than to have Jeb Bush as President and rehabbing Bush the Least's image is an important mass-psychological, brainwashing step in that direction.
