why do Democrats lie and try to fool Americans ?

Question

have you ever known a honest leftist?

for a perfect example of left wing dishonesty just look at Jim Ws profile

David Duke is a Democrat

Answer 1

Nope. My own grandmother is a big Dem/Lib and I love her with all my heart but she goes stupid when it comes to this issue. She gets so ashamed of the lies she tells when she debates the subject she has to look away but u know she just can't turn away from the party. IT is very sad to watch someone you love say such stupid stupid things.

Answer 2

There are plenty of honest liberals and plenty of dishonest
conservatives.

Indeed, the dishonest conservatives seem to be in the
press quite a bit these days.

Do you really want to be throwing stones when people's
memories are notoriously short (that is, they won't remember
when the Democrats controlled the Congress)?

If we start counting off indicted Republicans vs. indicted
Democrats ... well, you see where this is going.

I do not say that all Republicans are dishonest ... I would
hope you would be clever enough to re-think what you
are saying about Democrats.

Tom Delay?
The Swift Boat Veterans (friends of Karl Rove)
Jack Abramoff
Duke?

Are you claiming that they are all honest and have been
given a bad name by the people NOT IN POWER?

I'm not saying that all Democrats are honest, but there is
no way that you're going to get any credibility saying that
there is a tyrany of Democrats punishing the Republicans.
The Republicans are still in power.

Fortunately, they won't be for long.

Answer 3

Why do Republicans insist on bribing their constituency by unconstitutionally utilizing a specific religion's pseudo morality in their rhetoric? Why do they think it's better to relieve the rich of their tax burdens, while further burdening the less advantafed and the poor? Why did they LIE us into a war? Why did they (unpatriotically) change our Constitution with the Patriot Act (another misleading name that Republicans are SO famous for in their propaganda), diminish our civil rights and liberties, and bring us one finger-snap away from totalitarianism and a POLICE STATE? Why the politics of hate, judgement, and elitism? Why are they changing the 3-branch counter-balancing structure of our government and creating a powerful RULER (instead of leader) that our very forefathers had attempted to prevent (for damned good reasons)?

Republicans serve no other purpose than to destroy everything America has always historically stood for, lie about it, deny any wrongdoing...and convince us just how easily the anti-christ will win folks over...folks to deep in denial and brainwashing to see the evil that's right in front of them.

Brainwashing? YES. Only YOU folks are so self-righteous that you never EVER do anything wrong. Perfect beings. Yet you're only way too happy to point that accusing finger. You are NOT dealing with realty...sir.

Democrats might be a mixed up bunch that can't even decide on a specific platform, but their hearts are definitely in the right place...and they care about ALL OF US...not just those who think they're our superiors, and who care less who rots or dies for their advantage. There is NOTHING civilized, responsible, OR Christian about that kind of dog-eat-dog mentality.

I LOVE AMERICA !!! I hate what the current regime is doing to our world credibility, our Constitution, and our soldiers. I might have supported the war IF the Republicans had been honest about it...but they LIED...and continue to lie....and swear by their lies. Is that sociopathical or pathologigical? Either way, they are destroying the American ideal while claiming (lying) that it's patriotic.

Answer 4

Democrats are only trying to catchup to that which has worked to the advantage of Republicans. Americans loved to be fooled, despite the dishonesty of the 2000 election swindle George Bush wasn't forced to resign and stole the 2006 election too!

Answer 5

I know ones that honestly believe they are telling the truth which is almost scarier than just being lied to. At least if your being lied to that person had to make a conscience effort to tell you what they know is not true so you may be able to point out the inaccuracy and change their mind and those they have influenced with said lie. The latter is completely different because they really think they are telling the truth and these are the kind of people that are in control of the poor Democratic party today.

Answer 6

I know many honest individuals who are left-wing, many more than I know who are right-wing. Well, you asked.

By the way, did you have any specific issues you wanted to address or do you just like to say the Left lies because that's what Bill O'Reiley told you on TV?

Answer 7

You mean like how a Democrat took us into war over "Weapons of Mass Destruction"? Or how, without telling us first, he approved selling one of our ports over to an Arab country, then defended his action by saying they pose no terrorist threat to Americans?

Yeah, I can't believe the nerve of those damned Democrats.

*All* politicians lie and deceive to suit their own agenda. Crying about it on the internet doesn't fix squat. You don't like what they're doing? Make sure you don't sleep in on Election Day.

Answer 8

Answer 9

Um, more often it's the other way around I believe, but I don't trust politicians in general anyway. They've all let us down at one time or the other.

Answer 10

Because they are involved in politics. Your average kindergartner could count the number of honest people in politics.

Answer 11

republicans 'ruling' the country? Anyhow, yes, politicians lie. And since there are more republicans in office, I guess right now they are leading in the lies dept.
