LIE OF THE WEEK: 07-21-2006
Senator Hillary Clinton on the moral issues of today:
Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton chastised Democrats Saturday for taking on issues that arouse conservatives and turn out Republican voters rather than finding consensus on mainstream subjects. Without mentioning specific subjects like gay marriage, Mrs. Clinton said: "We do things that are controversial. We do things that try to inflame their base." "We are wasting time."
THE TRUTH: I agree that telling people your position on these issues is a waste of time when the majority of Americans consider your positions to be immoral. However, the important fact being missed in this is that hiding the truth is the same thing as lying about your position, but I guess immoral people will do anything to get elected.
