David Limbaugh admits lie, Coulter still has it posted on her web page!
Edited on Thu Oct-16-03 08:44 PM by trumad
Here's the thread where Dave mistakenly accuses Tupelo, Miss., school administrators methodically purging all Christmas carols of any religious content... He was dead wrong and now admits it....

And here's a snip from Ann's web page...
<snip>
Not all mentions of religion constitute "hate speech." In Tupelo, Miss., school administrators methodically purged all Christmas carols of any religious content – and then led the children in a chant of: "Celebrate Kwanzaa!"

Time to update your web page Annie... Looks like the Liars can't keep up with each other....

1. To be utterly cynical
If:

The Utility of telling the lie - (the probability of getting caught x the Censure for telling the lie) > 0

or put more briefly:
U - (PxC) > 0

then it is worthwhile telling the lie.

An example:
If the value for the Utility is 1, and the value for the Censure is 2 (to wipe out the Utility and earn Censure for telling the lie), but the chance of getting caught is only 25% then:

1 - (25/100 x 2) = + 0.5
i.e. the lie is worth telling

(Full legin made it up alert with sirens going too) :evilgrin:
