Quote from Ricter:
I just wanted to make him a liar, technically speaking. Thought it would help.
You seem to think that im implying that Romney is somehow less of a liar, all i was ever implying is that politifact is partisan in the rating of both of their lies.
The fact of the matter is that they are both politicians, thus they are both lying scumbags, basically as a politician the way you make it to the top is by never answering a question truthfully, and putting as much varnish on everything you say, as possible, thus never directly answering a tough question.
Look at the video above(this is just one example i could provide many with romey) Obama is asked about all these various attack ads, and his response is "no one accused Romney of being a felon, then he shifts into talking about jobs, as if that had anything to do with the question. This is the way Politicians operate, and it pisses me off they will never answer a direct question. The people who are the most polished liars make it to the top, and we wonder why the country is so fucked.
It really is a sad state of affairs that our journalists are so goddamn weak that they let them get away with this, if i was the journalist in the front row who asked the question, i would hammer it home 5-6 more times, and keep asking just to prove beyond a reasonable doubt to the average person, that he is dancing around the question.
This is the reason why i hate almost every politician besides a select few and most specifically Christie, and Ron Paul, there are very few politicians who have the courage to come foreword and give you an actual answer on an issue, without shifting the focus to something else.
I admit that as a right winger, i am biased in the sense that I dont call out Republican lies as much, and i dont notice them as much, cause they dont bug me as much, but im also not naive enough to believe that one set of politicians is any more truthful than the other. They are all liars who eat from the same trough.
