Proof is in the Memo: Soldiers Died for a Lie
by Beth Quinn

We've reached the point where it's easy to spot us liberals.
We're the ones whose heads are popping off, leaving bloody little neck stumps behind. We're pumping out the word, "But … but … but …" over and over in sheer frustration at the absurdity of it all.

What else is there to say when some fool in Washington says the equivalent of, "No, you're wrong. Humans don't breathe oxygen. No truth in that!"

And then – just to compound the absurdity – the press reports that humans don't breathe oxygen. And then Americans are suddenly waving flags about the fact that we can now breathe underwater.

<snip,more>

And then, if it turns out he lied, as the Downing Street Memo most surely suggests, let's impeach him.

That's what we do to presidents who lie, remember?
