    Jesus. That's got to be impeachable.

    There was a certain truthiness to a lot of the statements.
     
  4. Well, it is pretty much the same lie 900 times.

    Repeating it over and over doesn't make it any less of a lie.
     
  6. I'm glad I'm feeling well and can appreciate this thread before it becomes the bloody nightmare of political slanging and bullshit-hurling that is its inevitable destiny.

    I'm pretty sure I won't even bother opening it tomorrow, but I wanted the super late night tennis crew to get to see it.
     
  8. The phrase "lied us into a war" is not an exaggeration any more.
    Will anyone even mention these studies at any debate soon?

    Bush didn't waste any time getting the lies going when he swore he would "support, uphold and defend" the Constitution on Day 1. More like lawyer holes in the thing you could drive a truck through.

    Tomorrow, this group will release the study that the sun will rise in the east....
     
  11. First of all, it's two groups.
    Second, it's never wrong to state clearly the historical record.

    I'd like to know where this study was four fucking years ago.

    Wexler has introduced impeachment of Prince Regent Cheney.
