Ironically, it was not until the White House came forward, in effort at full disclosure, that the left started screaming "Bush LIED".


admitting that you lied before someone accuses you of lying does not negate the lie in the first place.






I guess that makes The New York Times and The Washington Post, Time magazine, and other sources liars as well.
Who routinely make errors, and print retractions to correct those errors.


Your argument is absurd.


There's a difference between lying, and simply admitting a factual error.
Of a statement that was the best available facts at the time the statement was made, and a correction later made when the facts were proven uncorroborated.
Not proven false, just uncorroborated.

Or in the case of U.S. invasion of Iraq over WMD's, that the White House believed and acted based on considerable circumstancial evidence that Saddam was pursuing WMD's (as every other nation's intelligence on Iraq also believed) and simply do not have the hard evidence to prove it beyond all doubt.

So they admitted to a lack of corroborating sources to put it in the State of the Union Address.
But they can't be proven wrong.

And the evidence doesn't exist to say they "lied".
And it is thus a lie for liberals to say that Bush "lied".




  • from Do Racists have lower IQ's...

    Liberals who bemoan discrimination, intolerance, restraint of Constitutional freedoms, and promotion of hatred toward various abberant minorities, have absolutely no problem with discriminating against, being intolerant of, restricting Constitutional freedoms of, and directing hate-filled scapegoat rhetoric against conservatives.

    EXACTLY what they accuse Republicans/conservatives of doing, is EXACTLY what liberals/Democrats do themselves, to those who oppose their beliefs.
