25. It's not too difficult to twist the literal truth into a shape
resembling a blatant lie.

A good example of this is Cheney's often-repeated reference to terrorist training camps inside Iraq. The terrorist training camp was located in the North under the auspices of the Kurds. This area was not under Saddam's control. These last two facts are never mentioned when Cheney utters his literal truth. One might consider that lying by omission.

Either way, this cabal is deceptive to the point they simply cannot believed regardless of the subject matter.

And please remember, Cheney (as well as Bush*) is from Texas. Lying for politicians in Texas is not a sin, it's an art. Politicians who do not lie well are not good politicians, Christian or not. Perhaps by November more and more Americans will realize both Bush* and Cheney are not only lousy politicians but pathetic liars as well.
