Prevarication of Presidents?

I am thoroughly confused, befuddled, and dismayed with George W. Bush. Well, actually, that is not really true. I knew he was a politician, and thus prone to lying. But My Goodness, what a prevaricator he seems to be!  And folks believe him!

Now politicians lie - all of them.  I just think that a cowboy should be treated the same as an overeducated hillbilly.  Of course, I think all politicos are crooked, lyin', thievin', good-for-nothings.  Can't help it.  My earliest memories about politicians revolve around Watergate.  You remember that little pickle?  (And then I made the mistake of studying History. Nothing makes you lose faith in your fellow man faster!)

Now, if I had told a whopper like the president seems to have, I would have gotten a whuppin' but good.  I think most of us would have.  I don't really cotton to taking us into a war while warbling whoppers.  Just me.

The question we all have to ask now:

Is this just the tip of a vast iceberg?  Just how much misinformation has been handed down to us?

My personal thoughts are that it is all bunk if it comes from D.C. - but that's me.
