Quote Of The Day: A Transparent Lie

Posted by: Laer at 02:50 pm

“[The stimulus bill is] the most transparent piece of legislation in American history.” - Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz

T

he frizzy-haired Ms. Wasserman Schultz is subscribing to the time-tested spin formula of boldly stating a lie, apparently without knowing that the time-tested formula has tested time and again as a failed communications theory. But she was on Chris Matthews’ Hardball when she said it, so she probably got away with it.

Also from this source (The New Editor), more confirmation that the lobbyists had Porkasaurus in hand before the House GOP leadership did, and this spark of bipartisanship:

… we have Sen. Frank Lautenberg (D-NJ) saying that not one senator has read the bill in its entirety, along with Minority leader John Boehner (R-OH) saying the same thing today on the House floor.

Why the rush?  Stimulus One has had months to work and accomplished nothing.  Could it be that Dems, like cockroaches, are happier when we’re scurrying around in the dark?

Hat-tip: Michelle Malkin

With Obama winning the presidency by seven percent, we can't blame the media. Their laudatory coverage and refusal to extensively probe into Obama's background and [lack of] experience was at best responsible for five percent of his vote, the pundits tell us. Here is a compilation of over 100 significant instances of pro-Obama/anti-McCain bias during the 2008 campaign.
