How to tell when a Republican is lying 2.0
How to tell when a Republican is lying 1.0 Stipulates that a Republican is lying anytime he or she opens his or her mouth.

Right after the lies are told, if the interviewer is worth their paycheck, that Republican is confronted on his or her lies.

Without exception and even in the face of overwhelming proof that the Republican just told a whopper, the Republican will refuse to recant.

Under further scrutiny, the Republican will always make the following statement or something like it; "We'll just have to agree to disagree on this point."

This is a cop out promoted by people like that Republican lie factory his damn self, Frank Luntz, and other right wingers as a tactic to gloss over their lies.

Whenever you hear that phrase, you should consider that winger thoroughly OWNED.

Because, as they say: Everyone is entitled to his own opinions, but not his own facts

4. "We'll just have to agree to disagree on this point." came out of talk radio.
The way to tell if they are lying is to check if their lips are moving. if so, they are lying.

5. Vary rarely these days does a interviewer confront the liars
Too often the interviewer is part of the lie aiding and abetting the republican moving his lips.
