Stranger than fiction.
If I really, really tried to come up with some of the stories that emanate from the White House nowadays, I swear I wouldn't be able to make shit up that's as wild as what happens in the course of a day down there.
Concerned about the appearance of disarray and feuding within his administration as well as growing resistance to his policies in Iraq, President Bush - living up to his recent declaration that he is in charge - told his top officials to "stop the leaks" to the media, or else.News of Bush's order leaked almost immediately.
See what I mean?

For anyone to actually do what the boss asks would require a level of repect that I believe that Bush has never held. Prior to this, it was all smoke and mirrors, and they have become coated with film and cracked, exposing the incompetence of this Administration.

what he meant was "stop all unauthorized leaks" if they stopped all leaks how would the white house communicate bad ideas to the public? if they leak the information, and it causes outrage, they can always claim its not true, its called floating a trial balloon. every leak that comes out is planned, if it causes trouble they retract it. it sure beats honestly telling us whats going on, if we dont like it then, what can they do? deny it? hell i wouldnt put it past them to deny something they said directly, but then only 53% of americans would believe them (or whatever the current percentage of fucking dullard idiots is according to the recent polls)
