Kerry lying about botox shouldn't be shocking, he's lied before

[ringmastery]

Remember when a reporter asked him about his health and he lied about his prostate cancer. Later said, he did it to protect his privacy.

I can see him using the same argument to lie about his botox.

3. Nice attack!

Read this from the Howler and after you're done go to confession and tell the Priest that you've sinned for being an insensitve human being!
BTW: Shame on you!

QUESTION 1: Senator Kerry, why didn’t you answer truthfully ten days ago when you were asked directly if you were sick, given that you were diagnosed with prostate cancer on December 23 and it’s now mid-February?

KERRY: Very simple, Glen. Very simple reason. Because my doctor was away and I thought it was very important for him to be able to be here and be able to explain what was happening, because I hadn’t finally resolved completely what the course of action would be. And finally, because members of my family, most importantly, had not yet been told. This had developed very rapidly in the course of February. I believed that members of my family deserve to learn not reading the newspapers but deserve to learn from me. And that’s why I made that decision. I could parse the word “sick,” I’m not going to. But I thought my family came first…

QUESTION 2: You’re running for an office where trustworthiness and truthfulness is perhaps one of the key ingredients or one of the qualities for the people seeking that job. Do you think people should draw any broader conclusion about your truthfulness based on the answer—

KERRY: No, I think every American would understand, Glen, that if a reporter sticks his head into your car door as you’re leaving to drive away and asks you if you’re sick, that you don’t owe them necessarily an answer at that moment about what’s happening…

4. excuse me?

7. At first Kerry supporters had me intimidated if his cancer or Botox was

mentioned. Then I thought about it - and decided it was better to FORCE the subject to be talked about here at DU - because if Kerry supporters can't handle it now - just wait - Bush will eat him alive on these subjects.

Better get used to it. The subject is NOT going to go away.

If my signature line is not acceptable - mods let me know.

8. Your sigs a bunch of bunk

because it hasn't been proven that kerry's had Botox treatment! He denied it so I guess you got to prove it... Do your sig lines alway contain stuff you make up?

Allegedly "innocent" questions which are actually an underhanded effort to spread rumors are not allowed. If you really need to know the answer to your question, try Google.
