There's no dishonesty like liberal dishonesty, just like there's no intolerance like liberal intolerance. There's nothing they won't excuse and no excuse they won't deploy. Their piety is a big aspect of that.”

Intellectual dishonesty is lying about one's own beliefs. Liberals, and those on the left generally, are more inclined to this form of deceit than conservatives.
Charles Murray wrote:
In their heart of hearts, intellectual elites, especially liberal ones, have two nasty secrets regarding IQ. First, they really believe that IQ is the be-all and end-all of human excellence and that someone with a low IQ is inferior. Second, they are already sure that the black - white IQ difference is predominantly genetic and that this is a calamity -- such a calamity indeed that it must not be spoken about, even to oneself. To raise these issues holds a mirror up to the elites' most desperately denied inner thoughts.

At the end of July, a story broke big across the blogosphere. Those on the starboard side of the ‘Sphere questioned it and roundly condemned it. Those on the Left embraced it; proclaimed it Gospel truth, and accused anyone who questioned it was, well, a “chickenhawk.” As August opened up, two men from the Left-leaning Brookings Institute took an eight-day trip to Baghdad to witness how the “surge” was going. Their report took the form of an op-ed in the New York Times. It was based on fact and their experiences in country, but was rejected by the Left as some form of propaganda. The Right applauded the op-ed as a sign that even though the virulent Left disliked the war, they had at least begun to accept the fact the “surge” was working. Two different stories, and two very different reactions are the reason why there is some serious intellectual dishonesty on the Left.

Examples of this liberal double standard are plentiful, but hypocrisy and intellectual dishonesty are character traits so deeply embedded in leftist DNA that we no longer even take notice. And of course the mainstream media, which is charged with pointing out such hypocrisy, happens to be cut from the same ideological cloth, so don’t expect any help from them.

The pathos-filled picture features claims of Gore’s victory in 2000, and leans towards Michael Moore-style visual tricks with misleading assertions. At its worst, the documentary is a classic example of liberal science, rife with manipulated data, intellectual dishonesty, and outright lies.

The last thing that’s funny about this email is that Moore wants you to believe that the mainstream media is somehow oppressing him and his movie. It’s the same tactic he used when he decided not to go through with the paperwork to go to Cuba legally. He’s playing the martyr, even though (as painful as it is for me to admit) the mainstream media seems to LOVE him! If this doesn’t convince you of Moore’s dishonesty and propagandist ways, then you truly have become one of Moore’s minions.

Manufacturing Dissent interviews some of Moore's long-time associates. Some are straightforward admirers. Some know a man completely different from the one they see on television. Some have been burned by him. They mention how he lies, hogs credit, avoids responsibility for his bombast and still affects his little-guy pose while living in a lakefront mansion.

"I don't own a single share of stock!" filmmaker Michael Moore proudly proclaimed.
He's right. He doesn't own a single share. He owns tens of thousands of shares - including nearly 2000 shares of Boeing, nearly 1000 of Sunoco, more than 4000 of Best Foods, more than 3000 of Eli Lilly, more than 8000 of Bank One, and more than 2000 of Halliburton - the company most vilified by Moore in "Fahrenheit 9/11."

They are continuing to show themselves for who they are. A despicable, far-left, socialist, anti-American, pro-globalization, who’s elitist, wannabe intellectualism and dishonest attitude helps them continue to pander to whatever crowd they are speaking to. The fact that people are smearing Patreaus and Cocker shows their intellectual dishonesty across the board.

Bill Moyers, the Far Left and Blatant Dishonesty ... Once and for all, I'm going to show you how dishonest radical left propagandist Bill Moyers really is. -- Hopefully we won't have to deal with him ever again. We exposed him on Monday when we spot lighted his financial ties to the far left. And last night his unfair and unbalanced documentary about the media and the war in Iraq ran on PBS. Few watched as Moyers' reputation is shot.

The real dishonesty by Olbermann comes when he ascribes actions to the Bush Administration that he not only offers no proof for but that are also belied by the facts.

Ralph Peters on Schumer — “He’s a liar." Either Schumer delivered the line as prepared and is now trying to rewrite the speech after the fact to hide the evidence or else the transcript reflects the version that was prepared for delivery and Schumer reworked the line on the floor to make it more damning of the military.

The one thing that I hate more than anything in a person is someone who is, "A Bold-Faced Liar." And that is what Chuck Shumer is, pure and simple!

Chuck Schumer and Co. aren't really sticklers for honest testimony, but they are partisans seeking to win more Senate seats and the White House by any means necessary.

Kerry flatly lied to Brinkley and continued to lie to the press until the story got so strong he finally had a sudden attack of minimal memory recovery. Brinkley had to print a correction, but not before Kerry showed another unattractive side to his approach to historical revisionism.

Mr Clinton lied under oath in the Paula Jones sexual harassment. President Clinton obstructed justice during the Jones v. Clinton sexual harassment lawsuit by lying under oath and concealing evidence of his relationship with a young White House intern and federal employee, Monica Lewinsky. After a federal criminal investigation of the President's actions began in January 1998, the President lied under oath to the grand jury and obstructed justice during the grand jury investigation.

Former First Lady Hillary Clinton enabled President Bill Clinton’s lies time and time again, and there’s more where that came from. Clinton lied under oath to a Federal Grand Jury. (Of course, that’s perjury. Perjury remains a felony.) Clinton illegally obtained FBI files on his political opponents, and lied about that, too.

Hillary Clinton lied. Hillary Rodham Clinton, unfortunately, embodies the very worst elements of a politician. Hillary lied about Dubai. Clinton aides had a hand in Dubai deal.

Hillary lied at the debate. She and her husband never even considered sending Chelsea to public school — not once. It was the prestige of Sidwell and Friends that interested the Clintons.

The issue is being honest and taking responsibility. Senator Clinton, in what should be of concern to us all, seems to have a problem with both. little free campaign advice to Senator Clinton. Americans prefer presidents who tell the truth and take responsibility.

Joe Wilson's lies grow bigger. New documents suggest that Mrs. Wilson suggested her husband for the trip before the vice president made his request. In other words, Joseph Wilson’s visit to Niger, which everyone believes was undertaken at the behest of the vice president, was actually in the works before Dick Cheney asked his now-famous question.
