Message Force Multipliers

is 'Bush-speak' for having retired military spokesmen appear on TV and radio, and support the administration's policies, in exchange for lucrative military contracts.
***The inspector general’s office at the Defense Department announced on Friday that it would investigate a Pentagon public affairs program that sought to transform retired military officers who work as television and radio analysts into “message force multipliers” who could be counted on to echo Bush administration talking points about Iraq, Afghanistan, Guantánamo and terrorism in general.***
Typical Bush policy. Support the unsupportable and make big bucks.
