A special comment about lying
Keith Olbermann on the difference between terrorists and critics

<<snip>>

The president of the United States — unbowed, undeterred and unconnected to reality — has continued his extraordinary trek through our country rooting out the enemies of freedom: the Democrats.

Yesterday at a fundraiser for an Arizona congressman, Mr. Bush claimed, quote, “177 of the opposition party said, ‘You know, we don’t think we ought to be listening to the conversations of terrorists.’”

The hell they did.

One hundred seventy-seven Democrats opposed the president’s seizure of another part of the Constitution.

Not even the White House press office could actually name a single Democrat who had ever said the government shouldn’t be listening to the conversations of terrorists.

President Bush hears what he wants.

Tuesday, at another fundraiser in California, he had said, “Democrats take a law enforcement approach to terrorism. That means America will wait until we’re attacked again before we respond.”

Mr. Bush fabricated that, too.

<<snip>>

The president doesn’t just hear what he wants.

He hears things that only he can hear.

It defies belief that this president and his administration could continue to find new unexplored political gutters into which they could wallow.

Yet they do....http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/15147009/

1. Here's a shining example of Keith's excellent point...
Lauer: And you said "within the law", & yet, you admitted that there were these CIA secret facilities.

Preznit: So what? Why's that not within the law?

Lauer: The head of Amnesty International says these secret sites are against international law.

Preznit: Well, we disagree with them.
