Speaking of heads rolling...so much for the strong-arm from Armstrong Williams

It pays to advertise. At least that's what the Education Department, and by extension, the Whitehouse figure, to the tune of about $750,000. Now Mr. Williams has apologized for his part, i.e., non-disclosure of $241,000 to produce what amounts to an infomercial for the No Child Left Behind Act. Tsk. But wait, I did say $750,000 didn't I? Where did the other half million go, and to whom, and for what.? We don't know...yet. What were they thinking? Don't know what they call it other places, but around here, when the government hires a mouthpiece without telling the public they'e a government mouthpiece, its called propaganda.
