When I was a teenager, I had a friend who's grandfather lived with him. He sat quietly in a corner most days and never seemed to hear what people said. Unless you said something about "the old fart in the corner" then he would come alive and curse you.

John McCain and Sarah Palin are getting caught lying over and over and over again. It's not a misstatement-thing, it's not a one-and-done thing kind of thing, there haven't been any apologies or retractions. They just keep lying. I'm at a loss, really, to explain why that doesn't enrage any of their supporters. Is it cool with y'all that your candidate is caught lying again and again, publicly? Is that an acceptable trait for a president to have, the ability to lie to the people with a straight face? Or is this just flat about doing whatever it takes to win?

Tulsa alone took $50 million in earmarks for one river. quote: I don't get what this actually means or where it says anything to lead one to think it's wrong. Who knows maybe it was to help fund going "GREEN" [;)] Title: Lipstick on a Pork Queen Post by: Chicken Little on September 13, 2008, 07:26:26 pm quote:Friendly Bear thinks that there are good earmarks and bad ones. But most of us can agree that this business of "bringing home the bacon" in order to keep one's self in office is plain wrong. Their should be a better way. But the issue here is not earmark requests...that's well documented. On a per capita basis, Alaska under Palin, this freakin' year, leads the nation. The issue here is that McCain flat denies that she took earmarks as a governor when, irrefutably, she did. He keeps repeating these things and even Barbara Wa-wa knows he's lying. He's not "spinning" or stretching...he's lying. |
