It’s been clearly proven that they are both stupid and liars…….it’s as if they won’t allow one without the other. I’ll take an honest stupid person any day though.

Is anyone surprised by this? Anyone? Really? What was happening in the Iraq Army was covered by Michael Totten last August, and was widely reported across the blogosphere and msm including by Justin in this post.

So they are stupid or lying. You tell me which is worse.
