>>>Washington Post: "The Gore people are trying to fan the flames and that's futile, because there is no moral equivalence between tripping on your tongue occasionally and having this long-standing pattern of exaggeration"
Sunshadow: From the WashPost article... Sounds about right to me...<<<
In the last debate, Bush made four or five significant misstatements. Given his short career in public service, were he before the public eye as long as Gore has been, Bush, too, would have a longstanding record of many, many misstatements.
As I've written over and over on this thread, the tainting of Gore on embellishment is nothing but a public relations ploy relative to truthfulness, crafted to induce the echoing of a negative pat line over and over at the breakfast and lunch counters all throughout America. Given that Bush does exactly what he's criticizing Gore for doing, this can't possibly be a question of integrity, as the GOPwingers have attempted to smear onto Gore.
When it comes to what the Republicans are criticizing Gore for, Bush is equally as guilty.
And one could argue if Bush, who has only six years of public service, had Gore's 30 years of public speaking experience that Bush, too, would also have a long record of mixing things up when communicating with the public.
