That's right! Those "some of the people" that ya can fool ALL the time ARE the core of any successful insane policy, and ya gotta nurture them constantly and tell 'em exactly what they want to hear. For example:

"Saddam DID have WMDs. He had 'em comin' out the yingyang. The reason we couldn't find any there was...he moved 'em to...ummm...Syria? Yeah, that's it! He moved 'em to Syria! And that's why we gotta take out Bashar al-Assad now!"

"And...Israel IS our greatest friend. And they love peace and brotherhood just like we do. And they never attacked no one that didn't deserve to be "taken out" or just plain exterminated, no siree. And we gotta back 'em all the way in whatever they do to protect OUR freedom!"

"And...all these American and Allied soldiers who die in the foreign wars...what do they die FOR? For our freedom, that's what! Yessir, you would NOT be able to freely go to Walmart and buy Chinese crap no more nor eat at McDonalds and get fat and unhealthy no more if not for all them soldiers heroically dyin' for YOUR freedom in poverty-stricken places halfway acrost the world."

Will everyone believe stuff like that? No! But some people will believe it...cos some people will believe absolutely anything their leaders tell them. It is those some people who are the lynchpin of any successful government policy that insults the average intelligence and violates common moral precepts...and those some people have gotta be catered to constantly, faithfully, and without shame!

Ya got that figgered out and yer on yer way to home base, politically speakin'.
