And do check your mirror before you persist in calling people direct personal insults like "dishonest"--it's "uncivil," doncha know, particularly when it isn't true.

Since you have trouble with word definitions, let me give you a hand:

dis·hon·est
adjective /disˈänist/

Behaving or prone to behave in an untrustworthy or fraudulent way
- he was a dishonest hypocrite prepared to exploit his family

Intended to mislead or cheat
- he gave the editor a dishonest account of events

You have one of those nice days, now.
