the best way for liberals to expose the current conservative influence in the media is to show how conservatives are "simply willing to lie."
I had to think about this. "Simply willing to lie." Well, let's see.. the left has coined the liberal mantra "Bush Lied". Ergo, by extension he's asserting here that Bush voters also lie? Hmmm... It is a known fact that former President Clinton had oral sex in the office, so does this mean that all Dem voters do to?
I don't get the gist of his article except, my gut take upon first perusal. It's a warning. "They lie, so we should too!"
I'd never encourage interns, children, adults to lie. Lying makes your nose grow warts.
That logic makes perfect sense to me.. It's just a continuing mantra to discredit conservative voices and hope keep the same ol' rats following their snarky pied-piper.
Excerpt
My publication, Frontpagemagazine.com, is the first conservative Web site that features a regular (daily) column by a gay journalist, Andrew Sullivan. In my estimation, Andrew Sullivan is one of the most intelligent and insightful conservative writers, regardless of sexual preference. At the same time, in "Virtually Normal: An Argument About Homosexuality" and "Love Undetectable: Notes on Friendship, Sex, and Survival," Andrew has written two of the most elegant, poignant and wise accounts of homosexuality and AIDS available.

Therefore, it was something of a shock to me to see the following passage at the conclusion of a chapter titled "Out of the Closet" in "Blinded by the Right." In this chapter, with all the deceitfulness characteristic of Brock's work, the author attempts to justify his personal betrayal of former friends (via insinuation and gossip) by their alleged betrayal of him as a gay man.
