White House Seeks Lying Czar -

Would Coordinate Distortions about Iraq, Afghanistan

The White House in recent weeks has been quietly searching for candidates for the position of “lying czar,” a high-level administrator who would oversee all distortions and misrepresentations about the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, a White House source confirmed today.

News of the administration’s search for a “lying czar” raised eyebrows in official Washington, where many insiders believe that the White House already has enough personnel to handle the creation and dissemination of war-related lies.

Specifically, many insiders wonder why an administration that already has advisor Karl Rove and Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice would also need a “lying czar.”

“The Bush administration has a lot of world-class manpower, lying-wise,” one insider said. “This whole ‘lying czar’ thing seems like an unnecessary layer of bureaucracy.”

But White House insiders disagree, saying that those who believe a “lying czar” is unnecessary are oblivious to the overwhelming volume of distortions that are sorely in need of coordination at a high administrative level.

“On any given day, the Defense Department and the State Department will produce lies that are directly in conflict with each other, and that’s counterproductive,” one insider said. “A ‘lying czar’ would change all that.”

Professor Davis Logsdon, who holds the Clifford Irving chair at the University of Minnesota’s School of Communication, says that the need for a “lying czar” reveals certain weaknesses in the current Bush cabinet.

“When I hear that the White House is looking for a lying czar, one thing becomes clear,” Dr. Logsdon said. “They really miss Rumsfeld.”

Elsewhere, responding to criticism, the National Gardening Association said it would no longer use the term “hoe.”

My application.

"Another glorious sunset here in Iraq as the peacefull natives sing songs of hope and thanks in the streets as fireworks light up the night sky and occasional street corner. I love the local Iraqi's who ceaselessly chant US CLOUT US CLOUT US CLOUT .......day in and say out. Just the other day when our vehicle simultaneously blew out all four tyres and the subframe.....hundreds of Iraqi's swarmed from the surrounding hills to assist only to be distracted by a news hellicopter which threw copious amounts of red sweets into the crowd.

It will be a sad day when we leave theis eden on earth"

I know it will be a short term job but I need the money ;-)

Nice start!

I wonder if bonus money will be tied to the size of the lies?

And here I thought that a "nappy-headed hoe" was a padded version for the most delicate plants...
