not always, but lying ='s lying and the bush administration lied big time with regards to invading iraq. tyrants have been strung up for far less than what these criminals running our government have done.
what if someone asked you what you had for lunch but you disclosed some of the stuff you ate and deliberately didn't disclose other stuff you ate isn't that lying?
Nope. If I told you I had a burger, but left out the fact that I also had fries and a soda, I would not be lying. If you followed up you original question with, "Is that all you had?" and I said it was, that would be lying. If the administration is asked why they are going to war with Iraq and they say Saddam and WMDs, that doesn't mean there are no other considerations, and the other considerations do not make liars of the administration.
Okay it's only 3 or 4, not 14. This provision was in the last Iraq spending bill. It is now against the law to spend one dollar on building bases in Iraq. Will Jr quietly sign another signing statement and break another law? According to the NYTs he will.
