they do some really cute dancing also.  That way they can't be called liars. 
For example, one of them is "PM of Canada Comes To U.S. For Cancer 
Treatment."  Yep, he sure did.  AFTER he waited too long to get initial 
treatment (his choice) and then when his too late treatment didn't work, he 
headed to the U.S. for experimental treatment that Canada wouldn't pay for 
NOR would any type of U.S. coverage!  Or there's the gal that came here 
(actually, here here in CA <g>) for a mastectomy.  The implied was "couldn't 
get it in Canada).  Ah, not true.  She could have had a mastectomy but she 
wanted a special type of plastic surgery with her mastecomy.  Canadian 
health plan wouldn't cover it NOR would any U.S. insurances!

It is all a liars game.  Just enough truth to scare the sheople and keep 
them marching along and not questioning anything.

The press corp is fact-adverse but very fable friendly.
