You know how Bush is always saying he doesn't govern with focus groups? Well that may be, but he does spend a lot on advertising.
According to the GAO from the beginning of 2003 to the middle of 2005, the Bush administration spent $1.6 billion on "contracts with public relations firms, advertising agencies, media organizations, and individual members of the media". $1.1 billion of that was spent by the Department of Defense. The details are in this fact sheet.
This guy's fiscal management is disgusting.

Maybe some of that is spent to sway the slant of bloggers. If he contacts you, let me know the pricing structure.
