[Leslie <cayadopi AT yahoo.com>]

I've noticed a number of articles lately, using the phrase "non-truths" (the 
politically correct replacement phrase to the word liar)............... LOL
 
 
Actually I think we and the press and the public have a responsibility to 
point out "disrepancies" and "non-answers".  
 
Personally, I think there is a huge sector of the public is tired of the 
political spin.  Personally, I'd like to see more of this.
 
I'm really tired of the politicians disrespecting the intelligence of the 
public with their spin (a/k/a lies), and their non-answers to direct 
questions.  I'm sick and tired of the political correctness.  Just tell the 
truth, just answer the question.
 
Ask any politician a question that requires a yes or no answer, nothing more 
nothing less.  You will not get a yes or a no out of most of them.   Many 
times they will play dodge ball and not answer the question at all and start 
talking about something completely different.  By the time they get done 
pontificating, the person that asked the question doesn't even remember what 
their question was, or is left wondering if their question was answered if 
they do.  Sometimes I think they are afraid to point out the obvious, "but 
you didn't answer my question" for fear of appearing stupid or something.
 
This isn't just at the Congress/Presidential level.  I come across this all 
over, only I keep asking the simple question again and again and pointing out 
that they are either avoiding answering the question or lack some mental 
capacity to understand a simple question.

Assuming it is true, pulling out the dictionary on the President of the 
United States in an interview is almost as 'rude' as calling him a liar, 
IMO.

investigating fraud against the government and fraud by elected 
officials...... LOL

Subject: [Homestead] Defund ACORN act

"Overly-broad language used by lawmakers intending to pull government 
funding for community organizing group ACORN may have the unintended effect 
of forcing the government to also pull funds from much of the 
military-industrial complex, a Tuesday report revealed."

http://rawstory.com/blog/2009/09/could-acorn-defunding-bill-strike-military-industrial-complex/

Companies that could be affected include Lockheed Martin, Northrop Gumman, 
and Blackwater. It will be interesting to see how they amend the bill to 
punish some lawbreakers but not others.

The text of the bill is here:

Yes, that's what he said; if current plants are required to meet clean air
standards, it would cost a lot of money to bring coal plants (and there are
a lot) up to snuff. and that cost would be passed on to the consumer. The
comment about coal...he said that government should set regulatory standards
for emissions and 'let the market determine" what's the best approach to
take (i.e. which fuel best meets the standards at the lowest cost).

Both videos were from a January 2008 San Francisco Chronicle interview. I
remember seeing them at the time and was confused because Biden was saying
something entirely different about 'their' attitude toward coal.
