Reply #8: Mehlman is a freaking liar [View All]

[Patchuli]

and in heavy denial with this: "MR. MEHLMAN: David, there’s no question we’re in a tough political environment. We’re in the sixth year of a president’s term, we know that. We’re in the middle of a tough war. But the focus now is going to be who’s on the ballot? What are the choices? And I don’t believe Americans, in the middle of a tough war, as they see these plots, want to weaken the tools and surrender the tools that are critical to keeping Americans safe. I don’t think they want to weaken how we interrogate potential terrorists. I don’t think they want to weaken the surveillance. I don’t think they want to kill the Patriot Act, and I certainly don’t want to think that they give the enemy the kind of victory that the 9/11 Commission had said they would have if we cut and run from Iraq"

Mehlman totally ignores the polls saying what Americans want! I'm also sure that if a Dem gets in the WH in '08, these people will not be so happy about all the executive power the Dem would have after *'s power grabs the past 5 1/2 years. I also note that he lied at the end of that interview. I don't recall the 9/11 Commission saying anything about Iraq except that it was not responsible for 9/11. Where did Mehlman pull that statement out of that the 9/11 Commission uses repub talking points?! Do these asshats really know the meaning of "cut and run?" Man, talk about living in denial!!

Howard was great though!!!!
