^^^ Funny you should say that - I've seen a few on this very site make those arguments. Edit - however - when you read the comic carefully the "liberal" logic is just as circular as the "conservative" For example I don't see how everybody knowing that the war was a forgone conclusion (which is a true statement - I lived in the US at the time and I saw it coming) translates into everybody knows the president was lying. I wonder if Tom Tomorrow realized he made both sides look silly in this one. |

I would have to ask who on this message board and does not agree that the DS memo is a “smoking gun” proving administrative lies has answered “Yes, but that’s old knew” to this accusation?: “The memo flatly states that the intelligence was being “fixed around the policy” - - and that Bush had “Made up his mind” to go to war”? |

Yes, but the memo is hearsay as opposed to actual fact. The "memo" is one man's opinion that has no backup. |

That argument I have heard, but not the one in this cartoon. |

Hearsay does not automatically equate to false information. |

Neither does it automatically equate to true information either. Given the news over the weekend from the original reporter, the issue is moot anyway. (Although, I do agree with Minuet on the "two-sided circular logic" point in the cartoon.) |

No one has argued that hearsay = truth (that I am aware of). |

I never said I was responding to anyone. Sometimes even I put forth an original thought.
