Liar-in-chief and the seven parrots

Bush and his liarsBy VictorM:

This article by Dan Froomkin details the results of an extensive research project to document the lies told by the Bush administration on the lead up to the Iraq invasion and occupation. They don't call them "lies"; they call them "falsehoods." Come on, the list of 935 statements reflect blatant lies because the people involved all new better:

"President Bush, for example, made 232 false statements about weapons of mass destruction in Iraq and another 28 false statements about Iraq's links to Al Qaeda. Secretary of State Powell had the second-highest total in the two-year period, with 244 false statements about weapons of mass destruction in Iraq and 10 about Iraq's links to Al Qaeda. Rumsfeld and Fleischer each made 109 false statements, followed by Wolfowitz (with 85), Rice (with 56), Cheney (with 48), and McClellan (with 14).
