Pinocchios of the Left

Will the Dems' health care Christmas Present to America be an improvement or detriment to our health care system?


The major difference between Burger King and liberals is that liberals don’t offer fries with their whoppers.

The thing about those on the left that I, personally, find so infuriating isn’t just that they lie, but that they’re such hypocrites that they never call one another out. For instance, Al Gore and his Hollywood disciples are constantly exchanging the environmental equivalent of high-fives, and no liberal ever mentions the inconvenient truth that all of these people reside in mansions the size of hotels and fly all over the planet in private jets. Talk about carbon footprints! Dinosaurs didn’t have feet this big or this dirty.

Speaking of movie stars, they all pretend to be populists, just worried sick about the plight of blue collar Americans. Of course they’ll open their homes to raise campaign funds for any huckster with a (D) after his or her name, but have you ever heard about their offering, let us say, a million dollars of their $25 million-a-movie salary to be divided among the crew? The more generous ones pass out wristwatches or autographed photos of themselves at the wrap party, imagining that the various gaffers, gofers and stuntmen, will forever after mention them in their evening prayers.

For that matter, have you ever heard of a Commie college professor, many of whom pull down well over $100,000-a-year, sharing any of his salary with the custodial staff or their own over-worked, under-paid, teaching assistants? No, neither have I.

Talk is cheap, but not nearly as cheap as those lying lefties.

I know I'm two days late on this thread but I had to post hoping someone would read it. nmi, have you ever bothered to read the PDB itself? I already no the answer is no. If you had you would know there was no way for anyone to know bin Laden was going to have planes hijacked and flown into buildings. You guys with the BDS are out of this world! Miss Cleo couldn't have predicted 9/11. And to paraphrase Ann Coulter "You libs squawk about GWB not doing things before 9/11 you wouldn't even allow after 9/11. I've got a clue for libdolts - the Prez can't do anything he wants anytime he wants. It's President ush not King George. You all prove Burt's point. You guys simply do not deal in the truth. You either are dealing in half truths or non-truths all day every day. Morons.

The Truth is Good
I think people are humanists because there is something lacking in them.
The ability to tell right from wrong and truth from lies eludes them.
Argue logically and factually all day long and they will still say something like, "It isn't fair that some people have more money than other people."
Why does how much junk a person owns consume them? It reminds me of a two year olds jealousy.
Lie to get what you want. Where is the honor? Where is the integrity? Obama lies several times a week and no one seems to notice.
Bush gets called a liar simply because they don't like him and he won.
Without Truth there is no civilization. Everything is based on Truth. The Truth is Good.
