I personally like the word lies better than dissembles, but let’s not quibble the little things. The non-partisan site Spinsanity has compiled a pretty good account of the Bush administration’s attempt to rewrite their own comments of months and years past regarding the Iraq/Al Qaeda connections (or lack thereof). Cheney himself lies about stuff he said a few months back. This is just getting ridiculous.

Newsweek’s Daniel Gross explains the Consumer Price Index (here’s the official BLS site) in a very simple video. I could do without the goofy sound effects, but it’s a good, 2 minute explanation of how the government tracks inflation.
Per David Simon’s Berkeley talk, though, the video doesn’t go into why this matters. Perhaps they’ll cover that in the next installment of the Economics 101 series.
