Hilarious right wing "review" of David Corn's book!
Edited on Tue Mar-30-04 12:24 AM by professor_pot
Found this amongst Amazon's reader reviews for "The Lies of George W. Bush: Mastering the Politics of Deception" by David Corn:

Mr. Corn, let us not forget Bill Clinton's sex scandal and his failure to protect this country from terrorists such as: Usama bin Laden. He (Bill Clinton) had two chances to catch bin Laden, but refused. Your so called "Commander in Chief" was more worried about, who am I going to sleep with, rather than this country's security and the citizens who live within. Lets not forget his lying to the American people, cheating on his wife, and lying under oath. If the president of the United States is not held accountable for his actions then why in the world are criminals? Why do we still have people saying," Do you sware to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help you GOD?" Bill Clinton got away with his crimes why aren't everyone else?

The wealthy pay the MOST absurd amount in taxes every year and have not been given tax cuts since Ronald Reagan. The weathly are working long and tiresome hours to be were they are. They need a break. They're not Celebrites, they're just average people trying to make it in this world. The world terrorists are trying to take from us.

If you want to talk about lies and misleadings Mr. Corn; you should first look at your party, remove the speak from their eyes, and then beat up on the Republican party.

GOD Bless America and our Troops
Please don't forget that day! (September 11, 2001)
It did happen, and we can't change or run from it!

Purchase this book, Losing bin Laden, by Richard Miniter.It is the untold story about How Bill Clinton's failures unleashed Global Terror.


can anyone tell me what the hell is "remove the speak from their eyes?" some kind of american slang for....what?!?

On Edit: Thankfully, only one out of 95 folks found this review helpful, Amazon says.

3. Haha, quite the "review".
He really dissected Corn's main points. I am now thoroughly convinced that George W Bush is NOT a liar!

4. Its a horrendously butchered biblical saying
something like "remove the plank (or log) in your own eye before pointing out the speck in another's"

Not only did he get the saying wrong, he got it in the wrong order.
