Lets go all the way back to 1999. If I remember, this guy made a huge deal about how it was time to bring, integrity, honor and dignity back to the white house.
Did anybody else hear them drone on and on about this? It was actually the cornerstone of his campaign.
After all, he couldn't talk about the economy. It was raging and the strongest it's ever been.
He couldn't talk about finances. Hell, not only had we balanced the damn budget, we had a fucking surplus. (Excuse my language but I just don't FRICKING CARE anymore).
He couldn't talk about peace. Shit the guy had never even traveled outside of the United States. Even while doing a stint (ahem) in the military, he managed to never fucking travel outside of the country.
No. No. The only thing this guy campaigned on, the only fricking issue he had was, bringing integrity, back to the white house. Lying was a national disgrace and he was going to fix all that.
How can you stand in front of a national audience and declare that all wiretaps you've been doing have been supported by warrants, when you knew at the time you made this statement, YOU KNEW AT THE TIME YOU MADE THIS STATEMENT, that you were ordering and conducting warrantless wiretaps?
Intregrity that's how.
How can you tell a national audience, "no one could have imagined planes being used as weapons and flown into buildings", when YOU KNEW AT THE TIME YOU MADE THIS STATEMENT, that your appearance at the G-8 summit in July of 2001 was changed around due to threats that a plane would be hijacked and crashed into the building? (Not to mention direct briefings in writing about threats to run planes into buildings in the US). How do you do that?
Integrity, that's how.
How can you say to the american people, "no one could have imagined that the levees would break", when you knew full well, at the time you made the statement, that people had raised concerns about the levees. The more important point though is, WHY would you make such statements. After all, they weren't necessary. It's a lie that you didn't need to tell.
How Do You Get Up In Front Of A National Audience and say to america, that he was determined to find out who leaked the Plame information, and when he did, he was going to fire them, when at the time he made this statement, HE KNEW FULL WELL IT WAS HE HIMSELF THAT DID IT!!?
Integrity, that's how. The sheer audacity to then say after being caught, that it wasn't a crime because HE did it, has got to be the straw that breaks the camel's back. If this is the case, then what was the purpose for lying about it in the first place? The point being that it was obviously an act of vengeance against Wilson, and thus, no matter how you cut it, because of that, a crime anyway.
How Do You Stand Up In Front of the World and over and over say that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction, and that Saddam was a part of 9-11, when you knew damn well that these things weren't true, AT THE TIME YOU STATED THEM.
This is not a question of "I didn't know until later that..." No. No. No my friends. He made these statements, and many more, when he knew full well that he was LYING.
But since he was not under oath, and they refuse to be put under oath (ever notice that?) he is still full of Integrity.
After all of this I have one question, and this question should be the first one asked in response to anything this guy or his supporters have to say. And the question is, and I really want to know, I'm not being sarcastic here is:
"WHY SHOULD ANYONE BELIEVE HIM?"
If you or I had told so many lies, no one would believe anything else we had to say. We would be dismissed just like the boy who cried wolf.
I tell ya what. At this point I'm all for kicking "integrity" out of the white house. I don't think the world can stand much more integrity from this guy.
