The missing link between Bush and McCain --------> It's the LYING
Edited on Thu Sep-11-08 03:31 AM by DeadElephant_ORG

"It's the LYING, stupid!"

When did we last hear a national figure utter such objectively false statements as McCain and Palin have spouted over the last week...?

"...we cannot wait for the final proof -- the smoking gun -- that could come in the form of a mushroom cloud."

...............................George W. Bush
...............................Monday, October 7, 2002

Most Americans understand in visceral way that we were lied into a war, and that the consequences were catastrophic. A national feeling of resentment is a BIG reason Bush is so extremely and so widely disliked. McCain and Palin have embarked on a path of reckless lying. And they're clearly not going to back off. But it's also becoming increasingly clear that the media is NOT going to stop pointing out that those two are liars. We are finally seeing the media begin to use that dreaded, dreaded word: "LIES".

If John McCain wants to make this a campaign about character, that is a discussion we are ready to have.

Keep making that link --------> It's the LYING...

1. I think it is a rule. Gop tells them and people wish to believe.
Dem. do the same and are called what they are when they do it. Wonder if this has a thing to do with the 'liberal' press.
