BUSH LIED

"The man in the White House is a liar."
Who said that?

Of course, the possibilities are endless.

(I'll stop there. I'm starting to feel nauseous.)


Although all of these Americans have made that statement in some form, the specific quote goes to SADDAM HUSSEIN.


Al Jazeera (the Eastern bureau -- not the NBC, CBS, ABC, CNN, NPR outlets) writes:

Saddam Hussein has accused the White House of lying about his alleged stockpiles of chemical weapons as well as the claim that he was tortured in US custody.

Speaking on Thursday at the start of the seventh session of his trial on charges of crimes against humanity, the former Iraqi president rekindled his battle of words with Washington.

"Zionists and Americans, I mean officials, hate Saddam Hussein," Saddam said. "The man in the White House is a liar. He said there are chemical weapons in Iraq.

"He later said that, 'We did not find anything in Iraq'."

Referring to a White House statement that his claims that he had been tortured were preposterous, Saddam said: "They lied again when they said that what Saddam said was wrong."

On Wednesday, Saddam accused the Americans of beating him in custody and said he had the bruises to prove it.

Saddam said: "I had my injuries documented by three American [medical] teams." He did not say where or when he was allegedly beaten.

This must be playing well in the enlightened liberal elite circles. Saddam is an ally.

We know Dan Rather is his personal buddy.

Saddam sounds just like someone on the radical Left.

Would distinguished ex-President Carter argue with Saddam's comment that Bush is a liar? Would any of the people I cited?

NO. They've all been saying the same thing.

The question: Has Saddam taken his cues from the American Left, or has the American Left taken cues from Saddam?

In the end, the answer is irrelevant. They're on the same page.

The things that Saddam is saying in order to garner support from his backers, insurgents, and assorted terrorists, the ones that kill innocent civilians and our troops, is what American libs are saying.

Isn't that nice?

If Saddam were to claim that the earth revolves around the sun would you castigate Copernicus for "reading from the same page?"

the republicans, a party infected by greed


The Tax Policy Center, run jointly by the Brookings Institution and the Urban Institute, has concluded that the bottom 80 percent of households would receive 15.8 percent of the House tax cuts' benefit. The top 20 percent would receive 84.2 percent of the benefit. Households earning more than $1 million a year would get 40 percent of the tax cuts, or an average reduction of nearly $51,000.

The tax measure's cost would more than offset the savings in a tough budget approved by the House last month, which would trim federal spending by $50 billion over five years by imposing new fees on Medicaid recipients, squeezing student lenders, cutting federal child-support enforcement and paring the food stamp rolls.

Here we have more examples of the illogical leaps made by those on the Left.

Stephanie Rose is right.

I agree, Lores. There is a problem when the Dems' rhetoric is exactly the same as a tyrannt, a user of WMD.

The Republicans aren't the party of greed, Kyle. You haven't been paying attention.

I suggest you take your anti-tax cut crusade elsewhere.
