Well,let's put it this way... Clinton lied about a blow job. How many
people died as a result. Bush lied about the reasons for war. How many
people died.

I admitted he may have lied about Rumsfeld's resignation, but so far I've
seen no evidence--only left-wing diatribe--that he lied about anything
w/r/t Iraq. You showed me the evidence I asked for about Rumsfeld--now
show me the evidence about his lies w/r/t the Iraq situation. If you
can, I'll accept it for what it is.

In 2006 State of the Union he cited Iraq and Afganistan as examples of
"the great story of our time" - the adance of freedom. He proclaimed that
the number of democracies in the world had increased from about two dozen
at the end of 1945 to 122 today, but he didn't mention that neither
country was counted as such by the organization whose stats he was
touting. - A lie of omission and obfuscation.

He accurately asserted that the economy gained 4.6 mill new jobs in the
previous 2.5 years, but failed to note that it had lost 2.6 mill in his
first 2.5 years in office. - A lie of omission and obfuscation.

In March 2003 he insisted that it was "a matter of fact" that the
coalition included more nations than the alliance assempled by his father.
Most were a reluctant bunch, which included the Poles who didn't want to
be there, the Italians who wouldn't get out of their vehicles, the
Japanese who wouldn't patrol and wouldn't even guard there own
perimeter. - A lie of obfuscation and wishful thinking.

In June 2004 when asked about Ahmad Chalabi, Bush acted as if he barely
new the man's name. "Chalabi? My meetings with him were very brief." "I
think I met with him a tthe State of the Union and just kind of working
through the rope line, and he might have come with a group of leaders, but
I haven't had any extensive conversations with him. Chalabi was listed by
the White House as a "special guest" of Laura's and sat directly behind
her at the SofU. - A lie of ommision at least.

After the Dems won back the houses of Congress, Bush said that "Democrats
are going to support our troops just like Republicans will." Those
statements where at odds with his campaign rhetoric from just days before
when he said regarding Iraq, that if the Democrats vision were to prevail,
"the terrorists win and America loses." - A lie either first or second.

Bush: "Gosh, I just don't think I ever said I'm not worried about Osama
bin Laden. It's kind of those exaggerations." - Seems like a lie to me.

Bush: "We have found the weapons of mass destruction." The Army has found
no evidence of such weapons. - No lie there.

And, I could go on and on of course. :-)

You could, but don't bother. So far I'm unconvinced of any deliberate lies.
W is a political hack, and political hacks tend to paint the picture in
their favor. If that is lying, one can conclude that all politicians are
liars.
