Question

Two days after the "Christmas Bomber" was Mirandized, White House spokesman Robert Gibbs told Chris Wallace that from just 50 minutes of interrogation, "We got everything out of him that he knew."

Let us assume that statement was true.

But a month later, the same White House spokesperson tells the Press Corps that, "He's talking again, and we are getting actionable intelligence."

Now if we still assume the White House spokesperson was telling the truth the first time, then he must be lying now. Or, if he is telling the truth now, he must have been lying last month. Because both statements cannot be true.

In either case, the White House has lied to us. Plain and simple. No, it was not a "mistake". They stated both as facts.

So here's my question:

If the White House lies to us, and it is a fact that liars cannot be trusted, then why in Hell do we allow these people to run our country????

If you do not trust someone, you do not let them run your business, drive your car or watch your kids. But you let them run the country!

In 10 months you have an opportunity to start on the road to correcting what is wrong with this country. Stop voting for cowards, crooks, liars and politicians who work for special interests instead of YOUR interests.
