While I agree with Carly Fiorina gave an accurate but grizzly description of an abortion, she did not have to lie about the Planned Parenthood video having such a description.



This is just two recent examples.

Both of these incidents are examples of what has been going on for a long time. Perhaps the biggest turnoff about conservative politics, at least for me, is that they've picked up on the dishonesty and media bias that has always been a part of the political process, and incorporated it into their own agenda. At least part of it is related to the association of many that came from the televangelist/television/media church group, and they already knew how easy it was to pluck money out of unsuspecting people by motivating them with some kind of cause. Now you've got the radio deejay turned news commentator crowd, like the Lamebrain and Beck, Rupert Murdock and others who have learned to use insecurity and lack of trust to turn a buck, and make some political hay on the side while doing it. Most people don't really do their own thinking, they let someone tell them what to think, and so are easily manipulated. The more sensational, outrageously false and unbelievable it is, the more many conservatives seem bent to want to believe it.

"In their zeal, Conservatives often lie" ... and liberals don't? (Insert belly laugh here)...

The title "in their zeal, conservatives often lie" is not mine. That's Keith.

No one said liberals don't lie, too. The difference is that they don't claim to be morally superior, and that their political involvement is at God's request.

I didn't mention the denialist liars when it comes to global warming either, or the fact that most of their data and charts are manufactured out of their greed and imagination, but those discussions should be kept in another thread where I can ignore them.

So Sandy, why didn't you just do that? I personally think the GW advocates demonstrate more greed and imagination than do the denialist .
