Chicago Tribune Columnist: Wendy Davis Getting 'Swift-Boated' for Lying
Breitbart ^ | 25 Jan 2014, 9:32 | Frances Martel

Posted on 01/25/2014 9:50:22 AM PST by gooblah

Democrats have given up arguing that Wendy Davis is being honest about her history and are now simply demanding we all accept her narrative and her lies simultaneously. In a column suggesting Davis is being "swift-boated" for fabricating parts of her biography, Margaret Carlson in the Chicago Tribune implores readers to be generous with Davis's biography.

Is there a leftist politician who HASN'T lied? The problem isn't with them, they are low life punks. The problem is with the Repubs. who constantly hide under their desk every time these punks lie through their teeth which is why they get away with it.

"Wendy Davis lied! As did Obama as did Hillary a million times over! We gotta do something about this...Oooh but I hope they don't hurt meeee.."

Anything to promote and advance their SOCIALIST AGENDA. These bastards really do rally under the motto: “The Ends Justify The Means”.

Libtards/Socialists really do illustrate daily that they are vile, evil reprobates that are completely lacking in any honor, standards, ethics or morals. They are cowards and completely unworthy of any respect, consideration or tolerance.

I believe that Libtards/Socialists deserve to be shunned, reviled and slapped down at each and every turn.

If a person will lie to get elected, what will they do once they have the power? If dishonesty doesn’t matter when running for office what does?

Demoncrats are genetically predisposed to lie. It is a symptom of their mental illness. By extension, mental illness must be a dis-qualifier for public office. It should earn the loon a trip to eternal lockup in a looney bin.

Having gotten away with the Elizabeth Warren "Native American" scenario, the Demos are now emboldened to try anything.

Not that the Demorats aren't traditionally more aggressive. Why rumour has it that in 2008 they ran a guy for President who wasn't constitutionally eligible and probably was not even born in the US!

I know. I know. Hard to believe.

Margaret Carlson - surprised she hasn’t joined the Obama administration. They must not want her.

What liberals continually forget was that the “Swift-Boaters” were telling the truth.They just repeated the truth about Kerry a lot and, for that, these patriots were hated by the Left.

True. I was going to say the swift boat veterans told the truth about John Kerry. Somehow the term swift boating has been twisted around by the liberals to mean that lies are being told about liberal candidates for office.

“Swift Boating” is the term used by leftists to describe the unacceptable hindering of their narrative when the truth is told about one of its proponents. At the core of every Leftist there is decadence and deceit.

Its why they hate Christianity. It’s harder to get away with blatant lying to ethical people.

If "swift-boating" means telling the truth/relaying the facts, then so be it.
