Jim Talent, the latest Rmoney Camp LIAR

Just on msnbc with Andrea Mitchell, this Rmoney adviser lied through his teeth about possible military cuts (sequester deal) being entirely the fault of the President - and not at all the fault of Congress.

He'd be ashamed of himself if today's Republicons had any shame.

Let it be known that Jim Talent is the latest Rmoney Camp LIAR!

They don't bother answering the questions, they just say what they want to say.

Doesn't have to be true.

The reporter just goes on to the next question 99% of the time. 1% of the time, they press, the Republican continues lying, and then they move on to the next question.

Great news media we have.

They can't win on policies, can't win based on truth or reality - why not lie and steal their way into office.

I don't know how they can sleep at night - their parents and grandparents must be turning over in their graves.
