11:30: "Dana Perino defended [propoganda techniques] not by arguing that it was legal, but that it should be. He said, 'Look...'"

Awesome. I bet he forgot Dana was a woman cuz his wife's so frikkin' hot that he never even noticed.

Dana Perino: "All of us are moderately talented people."

I couldn't agree more.

What was that bit about Dana Perino and Cuban missile crisis?

Searching for a sift/tube...

Here it is:

^ It's almost comic relief -- check out what happens when a reporter asks the official propaganda representative about their program of covert propaganda!

Hilarity, hostility, dismissiveness, and lying ("We just give people information" ... that's intentionally misleading or false).

If you agree about the Pentagon propaganda thing is an issue, wtf are you doing defending Dana Perino's right to dismiss it as not being an issue?

There's https://www.videosift.com/video/Dana-Perino-gets-to-scoop-up-Cheneys-shit which contains the content of this video. I could've sworn I saw this exact same thing on the sift before as well. I'm pretty sure it's a dupe.

What makes you think we elected him... Elections have been found to be rigged... Electronic systems have been decertified in parts of the country where a few legitimate officials have been able to take control.... unfortunately most of the rest of the country will be using those same systems for 2008. Do we really have a say anymore?

"The american people get a say every four years." - Wow scary to know we dont have a say other than one day every four years!

Exactly. I thought we elected a President for 4 years, not a fucking Fuhrer for 4 years.

(Waiting for the Godwin police to arrive. It shouldn't be long.)

It's called "Public Relations".

Personal Favorite Quote: "That is good news, according to a military analysis of the results. At the very least, analysts optimistically concluded, the findings indicate that Iraqis hold some "shared beliefs" that may eventually allow them to surmount the divisions that have led to a civil war."

So see, its really all okay, we've done them a favor by invading their country, now all these diverse and often diametrically opposed parties have a commonality that will bring them together for a bright and better tomorrow!

Goddamn, I could be Dana Perino.

that was awesome. glad to know our tax dollars are going towards something useful.

From the White House press briefing:

Dana Perino: Barney Cam, you may have noticed, is now available at WhiteHouse.gov. The theme of this year's video is "Holiday in the National Parks," and it features the president, Mrs. Bush, the twins and some other very special guests, including Prime Minister Tony Blair -- former Prime Minister Tony Blair -- and country singer Alan Jackson. The entire production team did a fantastic job, and I'm sure everyone will have a lot of fun with it.

Reporter: Who produces that? Is that government expense?

Perino: We do it here at the White House. Remember, the whole reason we started Barney Cam was because there was a lot of interest in 2001 for people to be able to see the decorations of the White House, and that year, if you'll recall, after the September 11th attacks, the tours were closed. And so this was an idea that we came up with. And actually now we've decided to keep going because there's so many Americans who would love to see the White House at Christmas time and can't make it.

1. The US uses waterboarding.
2. Waterboarding is torture.
3. Therefore, the US uses torture.

Dana Perino is a lying bitch who should go to jail with Bush & Cheney for obstruction of justice & conspiracy to obstruct justice in TortureGate.

"I can't imagine how Perino, or Snow, or McClellan, or Fleischer could lie like that, every single day. I would be a bad White House Press Secretary."

In the past 5+ years the White House Secretary has been a bad White House Secretary. They also don't seem to last very long. I don't think most of them can lie that much without psychological consequences either.

White House Climate Science Censorship - Why Perino Takes It Personally
Posted by kert_davies on 12/11/2007 4:33 pm

Hmmm...wonder why Dana Perino reacted with such passion to a question yesterday about Rep. Waxman's (proposed) report on climate science censorship by the Bush White House?

Aside from her laughable and classic Bush-like response - dismissing the report then admitting that she hadn't even read it but had "seen reports about the report".... a flub up reported nicely here on DeSmogBlog.

Add this to Perino's mishandling of White House censorship of Center for Disease Control Director's Senate testimony in late October, covered well by ThinkProgress and RollingStone.

Here at ExxonSecrets, we know a little more about Ms. Perino from our 10+ years of research on global warming backlash. Her anti-environmental roots run deep.

Kyoto Bashing in 1997
First off, in our archives we have a press release she penned during her days on Capitol Hill in the late 1990s, when she was press officer for Representative Schaefer (R-CO). Her boss was admonishing the Clinton Administration in June 1997 to slow down the push toward Kyoto agreement in December 1997, saying there still were too many unanswered questions about the impact on the US economy and other common refrains of the day pushed by the Global Climate Coalition.

On the CEQ Denial Team
Perino came back to DC to work as Director of Public Affairs for the White House Council on Environmental Quality, where she was, in fact, running cover for climate criminals Jim Connaughton and Phil Cooney, the two main culprits in the Waxman report.

At CEQ, Perino was part of the global warming policy gatekeeper team, doing damage control and coordinating with other agencies on climate policy and communications. There are many memos to and from Perino to Cooney including this one in the midst of Cooney's EPA report editing meltdown. Here she forwards Phil a comforting article by Brent Bozell of the Media Research Center, another Exxon funded front group. Cooney responds hopefully, "do you know where this ran?"

Perino Hangs Out with Exxon's Main Front Group

Like Cooney, Perino also cozied up to Exxon's Denial Machine. Here is an email from Perino to the Competitive Enterprise Institute's Angela Logomasini asking for a lunch meeting and saying she had been reading the CEI's report The Environmental Source. The global warming chapter of this anti-enviro tome, penned by Myron Ebell, looks like it became a key page in the CEQ playbook. CEI at the time was the leading recipient of Exxon denial cash, but was dumped by the Exxon Foundation in 2006.

Here's another note from Perino to Cooney and Connaughton referencing a Myron Ebell piece in the Washington Times about a prank invitation to a CEQ reception for Lee Raymond.

Redacted Information
Most of these documents were delivered to Greenpeace after multiple Freedom of Information Act requests (see previous blog) and can now be found on the White House web page and our web site.

However, many of the documents we got back from our FOIA request looked like this one, from Cooney to the entire staff including Perino - mostly redacted text, leading Waxman's team to look for what was under the black marker lines... Read their report for all the details of the investigation

What Else Has Perino Seen Behind White House Doors?
One can only guess what else Dana Perino knows about the global warming Denial Machine within the White House. She has certainly had a front row seat. Maybe the press will ask her more questions about her experiences. Eventually they will all be held accountable...stay tuned.

I can't imagine how Perino, or Snow, or McClellan, or Fleischer could lie like that, every single day. I would be a bad White House Press Secretary.

Too bad...Dana Perino would be hot if she wasn't such a moron.
