"Mitch McConnell may have won the award for the most lies told in a single sentence."

[ProSense]

The last acts of a desperate party - FREAK OUT TIME!!!

by Eclectablog

The Republicans and their brethren on the right are in the final stages of desperation. Yesterday, Mitch McConnell may have won the award for the most lies told in a single sentence:

"This is how they’ll try to keep their fingerprints off a bill that forces taxpayers to cover the cost of abortions, that cuts Medicare by half a trillion dollars, raises taxes by half a trillion dollars, raises insurance premiums, which creates a brand new government entitlement program at a time when the entitlement programs we have are on the verge of bankruptcy, and which vastly expands the cost and reach of the federal government in Washington at a time when most Americans think government is already too big.

Impressive.

1. I don't think there was one word of truth in that sentence.

Really, Mitch?

[Spazito]

2. ROFL! Impressive indeed!

I think the blogger is right! We need a trophy just for Mugsy McConnell, lol.

3. If he won, he sure also had a lot of competition! The Pubs

are ALL very proficient liars!!!!

4. I was hoping that was a quote from Grayson or Weiner or even Biden. True, nonetheless. nt

5. I have never heard a truth come out of McConnell's mouth. Turn on CSPAN

to watch the Senate any day of the week and you will see the lie machine in action.

6. Consider the source! n/t

7. I think it was Gary Larson who said, "When the going gets weird,

the weird go pro"

9. Actually that quote is from Hunter S. Thompson. n/t

14. Thanks! my colleague, a school psych and I keep having this

attribution conversation. Now we know.

8. I would bet this little gem of a statement is all over MSM

I have not gone and looked for it, to see just where this little statement is playing, in all is horsecrap glory, but I bet it is being broadcast from the highest peak to the lowest valley on FAUX, Conservative Snooze Network (formerly known as CNN) and anywhere else it can be broadcast.

10. The Congressional turtle never pokes his head out unless it is to spin crap.

Hard to decide who is more annoying, Boner or McTurtle.

[Bobbie Jo]

11. All this needs is a reference to the "Democrat" Party to be complete.

What a loser.

12. Say what Mitch? Speak up!

man, I need a tortoise/English interpreter...

[Raine1967]

13. OMG!

:rofl: that is perfect!

[Arkana]

15. It does not force taxpayers to cover the cost of abortions.

The Hyde Amendment took care of that almost 40 years ago.

It doesn't create ANY new government "entitlement" programs.

It doesn't raise taxes on anyone except those making half a fucking kabillion dollars.

Most Americans do NOT think government is too big.

16. Bend over Mitch - I got a special award for ya right here...

The desperation hangs on McConnell like bad cabbage fart the day after St. Patrick's day.
