What's new about that? Propoganda is always used to drive public opinion towards an end goal. aka crusades, ww1 and 2, vietnam, iraq, every other war that's taken place in history.
Once the public is conditioned that the other side,person,thing is the enemy the government can begin whatever it has in mind with the support of the majority of the people. Studies like this have been published for the last century. Only difference between bush and the other presidents before him is that he's probably the least intelligent of the lot to be elected.
