...pick and choose their words, parse their vocabulary - so carefully, so nuanced...
Bill Clinton: "I did not have sex with that woman!" vs. "That woman never gave me a B. job!"
Larry Craig: "I am not gay. I never have been gay" vs. "I have never had sex with a man."
Is that why politicians make such good liars? As George Constanza said when he was teaching Jerry how to beat the Lie Detector, "Remember, Jerry. It's not a lie if you believe it."

gays cannot have their marriages legally recognized. they are often discriminated against on the job and elsewhere in society. for example, vitter was not asked to resign.
everyone lies, especially on the job. politicians have to lie to get elected and stay elected. that is because their boss is stupid. their boss is We the People.

Neither Republican or Democrat will and I am disillusioned with both.
I wrote them letters regarding the FBI abuse of power and neither party no responded.
Someone wrote bad things about me and I can't locate them and this information came from co-workers.
My website is RIP

As the old saying goes -- 'A man is only as good as his word.'
And I gues that would apply in as much as one be a "truther' and the other a "liar." in a sense.
