You shouldn't have this much problem finding the lie of a liar. What you are calling a lie is an opinion. Shultz acknowledges that she understands the different interpretation but makes it clear that she has her own interpretation of the situation. In other words, she agrees that others may find her interpretation wrong and they have the right to do so. You use a rw blog site as a link to interpret the discussion. That shouldn't be necessary.You're correct only in that I thought I linked three clips, I had three bookmarkedThe section you are talking about it at 6:45, not 2:45 and Shultz is telling the truth while Cooper also makes a point. They are both correct. It is about Romney trying to take different sides of the abortion issue. She accuses him of writing the platform issue because he endorsed the platform. Anderson is arguing that he didn't actually write the platform issue, it was written by someone else. Shultz agrues that it does't matter because when he endorses it it's as if he wrote it. Shultz argues that he can't use the platform in front of one group of voters and than use another position in for a different group.
Is that really the best any of you can come up with?
The quote I gave for 2:45 mark is what was said, just not linkked. You twisting and trying to convince yourself my quote was just wrong says a great deal about how you, and DWS deal with facts. You then go on to defend her lying... just mindboggeling
The transcript to the clip you tried to whitewash HERE
COOPER: Do you just at least acknowledge the quote, that the quote you gave of the L.A. Times is incorrect?
DWS: No, no I don’t acknowledge that if that’s what you’re saying, is that…
COOPER: Well I can read it to you now. I mean, what you said is the L.A. Times…
DWS: What I’m saying, it doesn’t matter.
COOPER: What? What you’re saying does matter. You’re quoting the Times and again, you’re misquoting them, and to back up a position…
And lets put something in perspective. The alleged lie occurs in a fund raising letter that was sent to democrats on a fund raising list.
Nobody thought for a moment that what she said was anything more than a metaphor. I said in an earlier post she has her position because she knows how to push buttons that cause Republicans to act stupid. She doesn't care if you think she is a liar. She doesn't care if she frustrates news anchors. She is a spinner. Her job is the equivalent of the radio talk show host in some ways and to some degree. Compared to them she is above reproach and of superior honesty and integrity.Who did he assault? Who did he backslap? Who's hair did he pull? Where's the assault charge?You shouldn't have this much problem finding the lie of a liar. What you are calling a lie is an opinion.

Again, this helps GOP to gain control of Senate and helps Scott Walker. She is a typical liberal war monger. Every issues is a drama where GOP is evil and exploiting the innocent. A child's view of the world.
So, the consensus seems to be that Debbie lied about the cause of Romney's flip flopping between his position on abortions for rape and incest victims. She tried to blame Romney for writing the platform for the party when he didn't. So when she blamed him she misquoted a newspaper article and refused to acknowledge that she misquoted the story which clearly stated that Romney nor his staff actually wrote the part about not allowing for rape and incest victims to have abortions. Since neither he nor his staff wrote the rape and incest part of the platform it was appropriate for Romney to disagree with the platform on one hand, but on other occasions support the platform he disagreed with and it was OK for him to take the opposite position when the need arose.
Debbie should have explained the situation instead of telling what would be judged as a lie by some people and frustrate the heck out of others.
I understand. I also understand there are people on the conservative side that fit the same exact description as Shultz. The two sides have pissing contest about who provides the biggest liars all the time. It's a constant theme that runs through both parties spin machines. The idea that politicians are expected to have integrity nowadays is entertaining to me. They are few and far between and political party has absolutely nothing to do with it. Conservatives upset about a progressive that is spinning and being dishonest or misleading is just funny. There are people of integrity and honor on both sides of the aisle just as there are people who are dishonest on both sides of the aisle. When the majority of people in this country start voting for quality of character instead of a persons political party we might begin to get things done in Washington. Sadly, I think folks will just continue to argue and fight over things that don't make much difference in the big picture.So, the consensus seems to be that Debbie lied about the cause of Romney's flip flopping between his position on abortions for rape and incest victims.

It's not just the Romney lie, Camp...it's Wasserman-Shultz's pattern of telling lies that show her general lack of integrity. She's the Chair of the Democratic National Convention as well as a Congresswoman...she should conduct herself in a manner befitting those positions. Unfortunately "Little Debbie" is caught up in the prevailing attitude among many progressives that if they have to tell some lies to get their agenda implemented...then they're OK with that!

She didn't "try" to, she did....she lied.She tried to blame Romney for writing the platform for the party when he didn't.
Right, she liedSo when she blamed him she misquoted a newspaper article and refused to acknowledge that she misquoted the story ....
which clearly stated that Romney nor his staff actually wrote the part about not allowing for rape and incest victims to have abortions.
Again not the issue of her lies, just you trying to defend themSince neither he nor his staff wrote the rape and incest part of the platform it was appropriate for Romney to disagree with the platform on one hand, but on other occasions support the platform he disagreed with and it was OK for him to take the opposite position when the need arose.
Uh..she lied. Thats ok with you, we get itDebbie should have explained the situation instead of telling what would be judged as a lie by some people and frustrate the heck out of others.
Well there you go, you make the point of partisan blindness. Somehow the lies told by Debbie W Shultz and Harry Reid are more serious than the lies told by Bush and Cheney. And you bring out the bills Reid holds down in the Senate while you ignore the ones Bohner holds down in the House. Somehow the poison bills in the Senate are more serious and important than the poison bills in the House. And if you think Bohner isn't as big a liar as Shultz or Reid you are just fooling yourself. For awhile he claimed every poison bill he sent over to the Senate was a jobs bill when the bills had nothing to do with jobs. It's a circus that get promoted and propagated by the folks on both sides of the aisle, both parties, who follow the spin and propaganda put out by their respective sides.
There are at least four Presidents in my lifetime that have lied to the point of causing the unnecessary deaths of hundreds of thousands if not millions of human beings on this planet. Debbie Wasserman Shultz misquoting an article about a Presidential candidate and than lying about her misquote is not something I am overly concerned about. Nor am I concerned about her use of a metaphor to make a rival politician look bad. Ya, I think it is funny that people take it seriously as if it really makes a difference that Debbie the Representative insulted a Governor with a metaphor. It is what she does. That is her shtick. No one made the governor take the controversial positions he has taken over women's issues.

What lies is it that Bush and Cheney told? I keep hearing that refrain, Camp and I've never seen it backed up by anything. It's one of those progressive "urban myths" that's been repeated so many times that you liberals accept it as fact! Did they rely on intelligence that they shouldn't have? Probably. Did leading Democrats ALSO come to the same conclusions as Bush and Chaney? Yes they did but they seem to have selective memory on that point.
You seem a little confused about the legislative process, Camp. Any bills dealing with money HAVE to start in the House and then are sent to the Senate.
If you don't believe Bush and Cheney lied to get us into Iraq you are a partisan with his head in the sand. It isn't just the liberals that know they lied. You want to delude yourself into thinking it's a liberal thing and that in itself shows you to be hopelessly propagandized. The fact you still use that dumb ass lame line about leading Democrats came to the same conclusion is proof of your delusional thinking. The point of those assholes lying was to get the country and the Congress, including the Democrats, to believe their lies and give support to the war. What makes them so disgusting and foul is that they used the unity, trust and patriotism after 9/11 to trick the nation with their lies.
Believing Bush and Cheney lied to drag the country into a war in Iraq is not an urban myth. No one calls it that except for conservatives who don't care about truth or misleading their fellow citizens. There are numerous threads on this site that provide and endless stream of links that prove beyond any doubt that Bush and Cheney are malicious and blatant liars.

That is not why we spent our blood and treasure in Iraq. You sir are one of the misinformed Americans in America. You believe things that have been proven to be false. Sad, really sad.9/11 had little to do with the ouster of Saddam Hussein by the way. The man was a despot who was responsible for the torture and murder of tens of thousands of his own people as well as the deaths of hundreds of thousands of his neighbors. We invaded Iraq because Saddam Hussein refused to abide by UN sanctions imposed on him following his invasion of Kuwait. He was illegally selling oil on the black market and the UN was looking the other way. He was using chemical weapons on civilians as well as military opponents and he was actively seeking a nuclear weapon. We got rid of Saddam Hussein because it was the right thing to do.
