...it’s getting to a point where whenever you hear a Republican talk, you should just assume they are lying.
You are soooo polite. I've been making that assumption since about 1985.
Posted by Meteor Blades at July 31, 2005 01:38 PMHey - you know what would be great? It would be great if the Dems, and preferably of course Howard Dean, came up with a phrase that we could all embrace which described just this kind of criminal behavior and contempt for the law and the truth. Something like...I don't know...maybe:
CULTURE OF CORRUPTION
Use it.

Short, sweet, biblical connotation, perfect.
Posted by iamcoyote at July 31, 2005 02:35 PMRepublicans lying? Do they know any other way?
What's that old joke about knowing when a Republican is lying? Everytime they open their mouths.
Look, it's getting to a point where whenever you hear a Republican talk, you should just assume they are lying.
LOL! STOP IT MY SIDES HURT! LOL!!
Try replacing Republican with Politician and you have something we agree on.
Ladies and Gentlemen of the jury I'm a Democrat therefore you must believe me because we never lie. HA HA HA HA HA HA !!!
White House = Den of Thieves.
Bushco = Moneychangers in the Temple
Try replacing Republican with Politician
Easy enough to do. I can do it with Conservative also. It's replacing neo-con, republi-con and Bushites with "politician" that's the joke. But with the latter you can replace Economic Theory with Pillaging.
Posted by phidipides at July 31, 2005 06:34 PMNo, we don't "Centrist."
It is most definately "Republican" that fits the description, not politician. Can you say, Randy Cunningham? Tom DeLay? Dick Cheney? Jean Schmidt? Newt Gingrich? Henry Hyde? Arnold Schwarzenegger? Rudolph Guiliani? James Sensenbrenner? Ralph Reed? Just getting started here. Colin Powell? Don Rumsfeld? Condilezza Rice? It's a long list. Blackwell? Harris? Santorum? Armey? Coleman? Romney? Lieberman (oops, how'd he get here, he doesn't lie or accept bribes or steal votes)
Posted by Duckman GR at July 31, 2005 08:08 PMWell, of course politicians lie, or more precisely, spread foma. Some, however, just lie. The listing above is an example.
You can't read about delay and grover and the "K" St project and tell me that this culture, this party, of corruption compares in any way to Bill Clinton trying to squirm out of telling the truth about his prickadilloes.
But that's what you're thinking, isn't it, "Centrist?"
Posted by Duckman GR at July 31, 2005 08:21 PMThe goppers just slime everything they touch, or anything that gets in the way. Why do you think that "news" about the Blade Reporter not writing all the news is being presented the way that it has? Coincidence?
I don't think so. The problem is that (for the thugs) the sliming only makes the goppers look bad. And in Ohio that's pretty much nom de plume, er, the creme de la creme, ummm, soup de jour, par for the course!
Posted by Duckman GR at July 31, 2005 10:43 PMGreat job pumping the echo chamber. The timing couldn't have been better. Let's hope that the story penetrates into the minds of those in the district who will actually go to the polls.
However, for the benefit of us who aren't political junkies (we check in to blogs such as LeftCoaster because we assume you all are experts in this stuff), you could have included a sentence explaining why it's important that Schmidt lied about Tom Noe (it's in dKospedia - I found it off of Google) and a link to more information. The links is half of the reason for reading blogs.
Posted by JLowe at August 1, 2005 12:50 AMtoday's republican party has taken lieing to bew a form of art..it's all blended with hints of the truth..bits and pieces formed into a mosaic of lies..masters of deception they are...and their followers are so gullible..no matter how obvious the lies...this plame affair is great fun for me ..because they are all lieing through their teeth so much..most of them can't keep track of which lie they told first...if a person were to ask themselves that if the fraud were running tomorrow for president..would you vote for him ?...and the answer is yes...you are truly one really stupid son of a bitch..thats a fact
Posted by dennis at August 1, 2005 05:55 AMTime to update this thread...Schmidt has shown her real self once again on the floor of the HR last night...a regular attack dog. Stupid, inexperienced and a liar. She was forced to retract her own words (calling Murtha a coward), because even the Reps were disgusted.
She gives all women a bad name, regardless of her affiliation. She is little in spirit, just like GWB.
It's a CULTURE OF CRASSNESS AND CORRUPTION, commonly known as hubris.
grizgirrl
yes, what a disgusting lady this jean schmidt is. how dare she question the bravery of representative murtha. how many times has she been wounded? how many battles has she fought? what does she know about rationla planning of war? another disgusting republican, using character assassination to realate with the low lifes that form their "base". fight these scumbalsss america. they DO NOT support the troops. these greedy incompetent liars only care about themselves. they are not moral, they do not represent jesus, and they DO NOT support he troops. fight back folks!

Posted by ernieervin at November 19, 2005 02:46 PMIt doesn't seem that the Chaney cabal cares an iota about the truth which Jesus, the basis of their base's faith, strongly supported. Everything about them reeks of deception.
