Look at that face. Does it look like a face that would lie to you? Well Time magazine thinks so and they’ve published an online article calling the face out:
Politics has always been lousy with blather and chicanery. But there are rules and traditions too. In the early weeks of the general-election campaign, a consensus has grown in the political community — a consensus that ranges from practitioners like Karl Rove to commentators like, well, me — that John McCain has allowed his campaign to slip the normal bounds of political propriety. The situation has gotten so intense that we in the media have slipped our normal rules as well. Usually when a candidate tells something less than the truth, we mince words. We use euphemisms like mendacity and inaccuracy … or, as the Associated Press put it, “McCain’s claims skirt facts.” But increasing numbers of otherwise sober observers, even such august institutions as the New York Times editorial board, are calling John McCain a liar. You might well ask, What has McCain done to deserve this? What unwritten rules did he break? Are his transgressions of degree or of kind?
Yea, I do want to know what McCain has done to deserve this. Oh wait, I’m a Christian so that means I don’t judge. Why? Because I’m pretty sure somewhere in the Bible Jesus says to take the plank out of your eye before you take the piece of sawdust out of your neighbor’s eye. Translation-you aren’t me so don’t judge people…unless they are gay. Gay = pass judgment. Clear? Good.
So Time how about you shut the hell up. You lied to me almost two years ago. I am the person on the year. Bullshit. If that was the case, why haven’t I recieved my award? Simple, because you lied to me.
So before you go and point out all of John McCain’s many lies, how about you explain why you told me I was the Person of the Year. I was made the laughing stock of the school when I told my professor they were teaching the Time Magazine’s Person Of The Year. I had to drop out of school and work as a prostitute. Do you know how hard it is living on 10 dollars a handjob?
