					<description>You say liar like it's a bad thing.

I only visit this site because it says "lying" right in the title. 

Lying is the American Way. This Great Nation was founded on lies.

Freedom &#38; Liberty are for the White Con-querers. Not slaves, women or the original inhabitants.

Here, have a peace treaty (hee hee hee). Here, have a blanket (never mind the measles, hee hee hee). Here, have 20 acres and a mule (haw, haw, knee-slapper). Here, take this wafer: "body of Christ" "Amen". Now bend over, son. 

All lies. All liars. Our biggest export? 

fantasy: Movies. TV. Video games. Pretend, all pretend. All made up. 
Fake. Lies. It's kind of, I dunno, in our blood? Lights, camera, commence lying! Or as John Connor puts so succinctly in Terminator when Sarah asks why the Terminator won't stop trying to kill them: &lt;i&gt;"It's what they do!"&lt;/i&gt;&lt;i&gt;

It's what America does. 

Surely, you've heard by now that in any business negotiation, the first one to name a dollar amount loses. Why is that? Because information is being withheld. All business transactions are predicated on lies of omission. "Here. Have $24 in trinkets to use your island for a little while.." Haw haw haw. 

"We're here, we lie. Get used to it."

Scott McClellan is the exemplary American. He deserves a Medal of Freedom, because he can lie like nobody's business, on either side. I freaking love Scott McClellan. He is the face of the lying fascists in power - out front, lying regularly, right to your face. Awesome. Beautiful in its majesty and boldness. More fortitude in his left nut than Bush and all his cronies combined. Bush is a terrible liar. He smirks when he lies, half the time trying to suppress a giggle. Colin Powell had to resign, because he couldn't man up enough to face his lies. He sure is no Condi.  Scottie boy, on the other hand, beautiful. Just beautiful. Unflappable, unmoved, implacable. Fuckin' awesome, dude! The consummate American.

Do Americans have a monopoly on lying? Hardly. We just do it so much better than every other country, just like so many things we do better than every other country: Like health care, education, counting votes, disaster response, infant mortality, taking care of the elderly and poor, gender and race equality, quality of life, use of force only when necessary...

Oh, sorry. Those weren't lies, were they (hee hee hee).

					<description>On the flip side, if McClellan is a liar and "out of the loop" as Rove says, doesn't that make Perino and the others also liars and out of the loop?  Therefore their denials and defense of the administration... you get the picture. Besides, McClellan being a liar in general does not mean much of what he says now isn't true.  Like the proverbial broken clock being right twice a day.&lt;!-- X-spaminator-strike: whitelist, -3 --&gt;&lt;!-- X-spaminator-passed: IP check --&gt;&lt;!-- X-spaminator-passed: email check --&gt;&lt;!-- X-spaminator-strike: empty field - author url, 1 --&gt;&lt;!-- X-spaminator-passed: author url --&gt;&lt;!-- X-spaminator-passed: comment body --&gt;</description>
