This woman was just elected, <b>unanimously</b>, as Speaker of the House.<br /><br />It's inter-party politics, and the media is like a trained seal when it comes to covering the Democrats, honking the horns of "division" and "turmoil" whenever one Democrat disagrees with another. This is even as the Republican party is devouring itself!

In the most recent case, Bush not only lied but compounded the lie by lying about why he lied in the first place."<br /><br />Cohen revisits how, less than a week before the election, Bush told three wire service reporters that Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld wasn't going anywhere. Then, the day after the election, he announced Rumsfeld's replacement.<br /><br />"The president had his excuses ready," Cohen writes. "He lied for the sake of the troops. . . .<br /><br />"In fact -- and this is a fact -- the lie about Rumsfeld was consistent with the White House's political line that everything is just hunky-dory in Iraq and that only Democrats and advocates of same-sex marriage could think otherwise. It would have been inconsistent with the political line for Bush to have admitted doubts about Rumsfeld. It had nothing to do with the troops. . . .<br /><br />"In this way, Bush lied about the lie and then, as has become customary, draped an American flag over it. . . .<br /><br />"It has now been a week, and the president's lie has been forgotten . . . or excused . . . or minimized. . . .<br /><br />"How dare these people lie to you and me and send Americans to die in Iraq for reasons that turned out to be wholly nonexistent? One way to return to the truth is to find the liars. I ask this not for myself but -- and I mean it -- for the troops."O'Reillyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02298161341394034059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8529911467686742944.post-57262285883093425202006-11-16T12:37:00.000-07:002006-11-16T12:37:00.000-07:00.
