Dear Right Wing Talking Pointers (or a smart liberal) .......
Can any of you point out where Joseph Wilson lied?

I keep hearing how he's a liar.

But I've never heard the truth about whether he did or not.

Any of yu have proof in those talking points you so ably spout?

(If you're a liberal, I aim none of this at you except a plea to show me any lie Joseph Wilson told. Or what it is the right wing thinks he lied about.)

2. Well, according to Bush's die hard supporters
Wilson never stated that Bush was the Second Coming and therefore lied by omission.

3. Here's something, though it's a stretch...
The report also said Wilson provided misleading information to The Washington Post last June. He said then that he concluded the Niger intelligence was based on documents that had clearly been forged because "the dates were wrong and the names were wrong."

"Committee staff asked how the former ambassador could have come to the conclusion that the 'dates were wrong and the names were wrong' when he had never seen the CIA reports and had no knowledge of what names and dates were in the reports," the Senate panel said. Wilson told the panel he may have been confused and may have "misspoken" to reporters. The documents -- purported sales agreements between Niger and Iraq -- were not in U.S. hands until eight months after Wilson made his trip to Niger.

Though Wilson did admit he may have "misspoken" I don't know that you can call it an outright lie, and it doesn't mean that his other claims were false.

4. "Joseph Wilson lied", "It's Bill Clinton's fault",
"Democrats are Godless heathens",

"The Democratic Party is the Party of Big Government and Tax Increases",

"Liberals hate the troops",

"Hillary Clinton is a far left Liberal",

"Christianity is under attack",

"This is a Christian Nation",

"Iraq was involved in 9/11",

"Iraq has WMD",

"They hate us for our freedom",

And more lies, and more lies, and more lies............

THEY ARE GOOD AT IT!

And, people believe them because they repeat them over, and over, and over............
