A Liar By Any Other Name…

image005There’s a crisis in what passes for journalism these days, because last week Obama Supporters in the Press at CBS, NBC and ABC actually began running stories about White House lies and how Obama and Dishonest DemocRATS in Congress got themselves reelected in 2012 by selling a so-called healthcare reform law based on “a big lie.”

Maybe that’s why our Quote for Today Committee chose Hitler’s Nazi Propaganda Minister Dr. Joseph Goebbels’ “If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it, especially all those Dumbed-Down, Self-Absorbed, Media-Influenced, Celebrity-Obsessed, Politically-Correct, Uninformed, Short-Attention-Span, Free-Stuff Grabbing Voters Who Bothered Going to the Polls last year.

Hurley the Historian says according to the History Channel, on this date in 1978, People’s Temple leader Jim Jones led hundreds of his followers in a mass murder-suicide at their agricultural commune in remote northwestern Guyana. More recently, we all remember when DemocRAT Speaker of the House said “We have to pass the bill so you can find out what is in it…” [WATCH IT HERE]

But the biggest problem for our so-called journalists these days is coming up with a way to report Obama and all those Disgraced DemocRATS lied without having to call them “Liars.” It sounds so judgmental.   

image007Disingenuous DemocRAT House Minority Whip Steny Hoyer claims Obama telling Americans they could keep their plans was not a lie, because people interpreted what he said “expansively,” whatever the hell that’s supposed to mean.

The “Father of ObamaCare” (MIT Professor Jon Gruber) admits Obama “Misled” Americans when he told them they could keep their Health Plans, and Whistleblower Pollster Ron Rasmussen says 46% believe Obama “Purposely Misled” Americans about the impact of the new law on their lives.

And how about when the New York Times called Obama’s “Keep Your Plan Lie” an “Incorrect Promise?” That’s the first time we’ve seen that expression used—EVER! And all of this is because it wouldn’t be Politically Correct for any of our Kneepad Liberals in the Press to call our Political Prevaricator in the White House a “Liar.”

So wait a minute, maybe if they just used words that meant the same thing as “Lies” and “Liars,” it might not sound so bad.
