John O'Neill keeps changing his story.

Today's lie is ...


To summarize: According to the malicious Swift Boat holdover from the corrupt Nixon administration, John E. O'Neill, he was:

• In Cambodia (his own words to President Richard Nixon in the Oval Office, 1971).

• 100 yards away (an interview with a reporter on Wednesday).

• 50 miles away (another interview with a reporter on a Sunday news program).

O'Neill can't even keep his lies from this week straight.

1. Somebody needs a good grueling audit by the IRS

That should be a Kerry Administration's first order of business.

2. Um, do you REALLY want to promote politically-motivated IRS audits?

That just seems like a really bad, VERY BAD road to go down. Double-edged sword and all that. Hope you'll rethink...

3. It would however seem appropriate for a Nixon toady -

because Nixon himself tried to use the IRS to "screw our political enemies." (his own words)

4. I was kidding

5. Please accept my apologies.

I'm really sorry. I must admit that my humor perception capabilities are pretty sub-operational lately. :spank:
