select band of conservative commentators last come to a briefing with the president in the Oval Office..............“It’s understood that you are allowed to lie about elections,” said one of those present.

I'd like to know who that quote is attributed to.

I don't believe you can lie about your opponent. You point out their weakness and their political positions that are wrong and let the voters decide.

Lying like a democrat to win elections makes us just as low as they are.

We need to fight hard but as honestly as possible.

Micahel Barone was allowed to record the whole thing. There is a link to the recording in his column. Besides Barone, I know that Mark Steyn and Larry Kudlow were there. Also I think Kate O'Beirne.

If I remember correctly, this comment was a joke, and wasn't phrased exactly the way this writer infers.

Obviously someone from the liberal media. That is the attitude that the Dems have, you know.

I was watching that show yesterday on FoxNews about the media, the one with Neil Gabler. He was frothing at the mouth, as usual. He went into a rant about what a mess the GOP has made of the economy. He claims that people have lost their jobs, and personal income has gone down dramatically on Bush's watch.

There is not even a small kernel of truth in that claim.

Ref. Post #5:

I didn't take it that whoever it was that said that was saying it about the ISSUES!!! I understood them to say that they didn't think he was that certain of VICTORY on November 7.

Anyhow, I didn't care for that statement either.
