Since when did lying become a Christian value?

[funeralcrasher]

President Bush and other top officials in his administration used the National Security Agency to secretly wiretap the home and office telephones and monitor private email accounts of members of the United Nations Security Council in early 2003 to determine how foreign delegates would vote on a U.N. resolution that paved the way for the U.S.-led war in Iraq, NSA documents show.

It's astounding. Every day, there's more and more news about how this administration has really bent us over and taken us for a bumpy ride up the Hershey Highway...

So many mainstream americans continue sticking their shrunken heads in the sand.

They impeached Bill "I did not have sex with that woman" Clinton for lying about a god damned affair.

Bush lies about WMD's, wiretapping (Malloy played a clip from 2003 where he said he always goes through the appropriate courts to obtain warrants for wiretaps), ect and leads our contry into a bloody insurgency with no clearly defined enemy (many Innocent iraqis perished as a result).. and Joe Public is too preoccupied with MLB steroid hearings and wrasslin' to notice what's happening.

It's modern day bread and circus!

It's like Patton Oswalt said, "I think Bush wants to be THE LAST PRESIDENT!"

Feed me!

I have to admit, the Conspiracy Theorist that lives in a dark, secluded corner of my mind has been well fed on the activities of the Bush administration. I'm just glad to see that the media is starting to slip out of the stranglehold the White House has had on it.

It's funny that you mention Clinton. I've always contended that Clinton only did what any married man would do when caught cheating on his wife, he lied like a dog. What Bill Clinton did with Monica Lewinsky was between himself and Hillary. It was none of our damned business. Kenneth Starr and Company hold the blame for subjecting the country to that mess. The real twist is that any thinking person know that Clinton's accusers were ridden with even darker appetites. The hypocrisy is amazing. Now those people are running things. Every day I'm scared.

In a more honest day, that bunch in power now would be decked out in tar and feathers and riding a flatbed rail car out of the nation's capitol. That's how they once dealt with thieves and traitors.

Now that you mention it, I seem to remember Starr saying something like that in the book that he wrote a few years ago. The trouble I have with him is that somewhere, in his investigation, he decided that Linda Tripp's tainted whispers were more worthy of investigating than the whole Whitewater thing. Of course, Congress jumped on it like starving dogs on a dropped hamburger. Let's call it, at its most benign, a bad judgment call on his part.

My biggest beef, however, is with the Moral Minority who raised such sanctimonious rancor at the finding that an American President would cheat on his spouse, as thought none of them would ever think of doing that. Despite their dragging the man through the mud, Clinton still remains a beloved President to many. I wonder how history will remember Junior Bush.
