“When do lunatic libs stop lying?”

I’ll assume that’s a rhetorical question.

From Hugh Hewitt's Blog:

The Army Speaks; Foer Dissembles

***********************EXCERPTS****************************

New Republic editor Foer falls deeper into Mapes-Foer Syndrome:

In an e-mail message, Mr. Foer said, “Thus far, we’ve been provided no evidence that contradicts our original statement, despite directly asking the military for any such evidence it might have,” adding, “We hope the military will share what it has learned so that we can resolve this discrepancy.”


Foer is demanding evidence from the Army, but won't offer the public his "evidence" for believing Beauchamp. His statement challenges the Army's truthfulness, but given his willingness to stand by Beauchamp even after Beauchamp admitted that the badly burned woman he imagined hadn't been in Iraq, this isn't a surprise. There isn't any way to describe this except Foer has decided to take the magazine with him on the long ride down.

Nothing from any of journalism's bravehearts at The Plank. Status as a TNR writer/Foer protege --that must really be worth a lot, given what these writers are sacrificing for it.

Would any MSMer who believes Beauchamp's original story, or anything like it, and is willing to stand side-by-side with Foer please make themselves known?

Libs can vote after they are dead, and they often vote.

At our local farmer’s market, we have what appears to be a sweet gramma with a table pushing people to sign up to vote via absentee ballot. Last week I got her to admit that she was a life long democrat.

This week we supposedly have potential hacking problems with our electronic voting machines, so she is now pushing absentee ballots as a sure way to vote in 2008. I asked her how we can prevent the dead from voting absentee ballots, she refused to answer. She wanted to know why I was so distrustful, and I told her, “You know why!”

Yes you are correct. However, it is a valid question, when we read about the lies spread by libs 24/7/365.

Has the NY Slimes ever had a true story that we know of?

One that was written by their paid liars, not a guest writer.
