I'm sure Wolfie challenged that absurd comment and set the record straight. Didn't he?

I am curious as to what to do when someone tells a bold faced lie right during an interview. I am finding that some of these media people are absolutely stuned, like Wolf Blitzer was when Dean told a bold faced lie. It reminded me of when that New Orleans parish president cried and told a bold faced lie to Tim Russert.

If his lips move, you can rest assured that nothing but bullsh*t is being wafted into the air.

Democratic National Committee chairman Howard Dean denied on Sunday that any Democrats had taken money from lobbyist Jack Abramoff, even though several top Dems - including Sen. Hillary Clinton - have already announced they were giving their tainted Abramoff cash to charity.

That little detail didn't faze Dean, however - who insisted with a straight face to CNN's Wolf Blitzer:

"There are no Democrats who took money from Jack Abramoff, not one, not one single Democrat. Every person named in this scandal is a Republican. Every person under investigation is a Republican. Every person indicted is a Republican."

Howard Dean is giving the clinically insane a really bad reputation.

Does anyone have a transcript?

OK - point of order - the word "fib" in this title is somewhat misleading. "Fib" is defined as a small lie, usually an unimportant one.

I'm sorry, you can't expect FACTS to get in the way of Howard Dean making a point--which is, by the way, all Republicans are evil and all Democrats are good.

There are no Democrats who took money from Jack Abramoff, not one, not one single Democrat. Every person named in this scandal is a Republican. Every person under investigation is a Republican. Every person indicted is a Republican.

The 'Rat strategy has reached the point of the surreal. Their philosophy of twisting the facts to the vast underinformed public (thanks to the MSM)- has given way to baldfaced lying in front of clearly obvious facts.

He may be insane - but he's not that uninformed. It is an obviously supercynical strategy whereby he looks at the GOP straight in the eye and say "Yeah, I'm lying. You know it and I know it. Anybody with half a brain knows it. But we don't need any of that type anyway. Whatever you say isn't going to be listened to by our target voters- so knock yourself out trying."

'Rats will be rats. But the MSM has a decision to make. They can show that they are disgustingly partisan liars to even the most dimwitted of sentient beings - and lose any remaining credibility they have with their fast dwindling audiences - or they can make a stand and start surreptitiously inching their way back to a halfway sane position. It'll be interesting to watch.

"There are no Democrats who took money from Jack Abramoff, not one, not one single Democrat. Every person named in this scandal is a Republican. Every person under investigation is a Republican. Every person indicted is a Republican.

Most of the dem pundits and commentators have been saying the same thing, with little contradiction from the pubbie pundits and commentators. Whether it is a lie or the truth, the GOP needs to get out in front of this. Otherwise, the 'it was them (pubbies), not us (dems)' will stick in peoples' minds.

But, the pubbies are too busy eating their own again. The vultures have gathered and gone after their own Tom Delay.

Does Dr. Demento explain why all the dems are returning cash from Abramhoff if they didn't receive any money from him?

Even if Dean doesn't want to admit it .. we know that Democrats also took money. There is only a problem if you can show a *quid pro quo*.

Duke Cunningham wore a wire when he met with Republicans .. the wire may give evidence of a *quid pro quo*. Republicans who talked to Cunningham, are nervous.

Dems may have taken money too .. but campaign contributions are legal. I don't think anyone is claiming to be able to prove a *quid pro quo* in those cases.

We have plenty to be worried about here and it's all a bit more serious than Dean telling obvious lies.
