6. When the veracity of one's statement is suspect, all of one's statements

from day-one could stand scrutiny.

10. We don't torture....but don't ban torture...?

*******************************************************
PANAMA CITY, Panama -
President Bush vigorously defended U.S. interrogation practices in the war on terror Monday and lobbied against a congressional drive to outlaw torture.
*******************************************************

Textbook Orwellian double speak. Oh, and those pics only tell HALF the story. We've been blocked from seeing the worst pics.

12. Doesn't the idiot know these pictures have been seen all over ...

the globe? Is he so insulated from reality that he doesn't realize how ridiculous he sounds? How can anyone stand in front of the world and declare something so patently false? It's one thing to feed this line of BS to a hand picked crowd of GOP supporters. They love his lies. But to try and palm off an outright lie like this is insulting to everyone that hears it and embarrassing for the people he represents.

16. I think he's so out of touch with the actual running of the country

that he really doesn't know what's going on. Which is worse than mere deceit. He's hiding his incompetence behind deceit.
