Chicago Tribune Columnist: Wendy Davis Getting 'Swift-Boated' for Lying
Breitbart ^ | 25 Jan 2014, 9:32 | Frances Martel

Democrats have given up arguing that Wendy Davis is being honest about her history and are now simply demanding we all accept her narrative and her lies simultaneously. In a column suggesting Davis is being "swift-boated" for fabricating parts of her biography, Margaret Carlson in the Chicago Tribune implores readers to be generous with Davis's biography.

100 million democrats in this country and the democrats can’t find one gubernatorial candidate who isn’t a serial liar?

Actually no, they can’t.

How about D’Souza, McDonald and Christie?

Aren’t they being swift-boated?

I guess not. Just as non-white can’t POSSIBLY be racists, only liberals can be “swift-boated”.

Don’t know how much more of this PC crap I can stomach without going into vomitory spasms.

“Margaret Carlson - surprised she hasn’t joined the Obama administration. They must not want her.”

Margaret Carlson is a real dogface. Literally.

Exactly. The left know they’re being lied to and even repeat the lies knowing they’re false but not really caring because the only thing that matters is winning.

I remember Margeret Carlson. She has always been extremely stupid.

What kind of world is it when your average-to-below-average sleazeball can’t lie her way into a State House to sit on the State treasury for her own personal enrichment?

On the other hand, why is it we have an FDA, ICC and FTC to enforce truth-in-advertising laws, and DA’s all have consumer fraud divisions, but politicians like the contemptible Sugar Baby of Texas can falsely advertise themselves for public consumption?

n a column suggesting Davis is being "swift-boated" for fabricating parts of her biography...

Shouldn't she be? And wasn't it appropriate for Kerry (assuming the allegations against him were true)?

That’s odd, because John Kerry *also* got “Swift-boated” for lying.

Thanks gooblah.

I have a copy of Carlson’s bio stating she was a stripper in Tijuana.

Then-Senator Kerry was a easy target for the Swift Boat vets because Kerry was ridiculously metrosexual and his wife often said things that made you do this:

Its not her lies that should concern decent Texans, it’s the stuff she is open and truthful about. Anyone who would wear a diaper or catheter so they could openly support the destruction of late term babies for hours on end, is psychotic!
