Rumor is that France was going to send in 15,000 troops into Iraq but Bush's arrogance stopped them cold.

This is Sioux's board. I think you were replying to him?

"The most effectual engines for [pacifying a nation] are the public papers... [A despotic] government always [keeps] a kind of standing army of newswriters who, without any regard to truth or to what should be like truth, [invent] and put into the papers whatever might serve the ministers.

This suffices with the mass of the people who have no means of distinguishing the false from the true paragraphs of a newspaper."

--Thomas Jefferson
