7. Yes, he is a "liar"....
but so is a "flip-flopper". At least, that is the impression they wish to leave with people when they say "flip-flopper". It's a clever way of saying "liar" without sounding too harsh, but those that hear it know it is a disqualifying character flaw. It is a deadly political label.

"Liar" is not politically correct enough to be accepted by the electorate, even though that is exactly what he is. We need another word that means the same but will not be instantly turned off by the voters. I think "misled" is the word. It means deceived or lied. Bush is a "misleader". He intentionally "misled" us into war. Everything he has done, he has "misled" this country. Although "liar" hits him right on the nose, "misled" will be a more effective word to defeat him.
