Propaganda instead of the truth

Guess what? Former White House Press Secretary Scott McClellan has revealed in a new book that US President George W Bush used an aggressive “political propaganda campaign” instead of the truth to sell the Iraq war.

Well.....d'oh.

In another blindingly obvious revelation, McClellan says:
"What I do know is that war should only be waged when necessary, and the Iraq war was not necessary."

You'd think grown adults would have these sorts of things figured out BEFORE they act in high office, but apparently not.
