It's called marketing. Or do you realy believe that drinking Coca-Cola will make you have fun? Or that Pepsi is the choice of the "new" generation? I know, there's quite a difference between that, and marketing a war; but in essence, it's the same. You focus on the things that agree with your goal, and ignore or marginalize the things that do not.

It's a pretty big damn difference. At most, product marketing makes the companies a few extra bucks, it doesn't send hundreds of thousands of soldiers half-way across the world and suck billions of dollars of our tax money out of the treasury.
I think you've summed it up quite nicely, Boatin.
He was lying about an affair, which any married man is bound to do and one thrust into the political spotlight is sure to do.
It's hardly a comparison for twisting truth and 'marketing' a war.
