1. #1: blinking
With McClellan and Rice BPM's (blinks per minute) is a great lie detector

3. I remember when......
repugs were counting the # of times Clinton blinked. "See, he blinked 14 times in that sentence! That PROVES he's LYING." Then they trotted out 'ol' Blinky' himself-Jerry Falwell, and well, we haven't heard much from the GOP about blinking since then.

6. me too
I saw a segment yesterday (probably on CNN) with two budget wonks. The Republican could barely speak as he strove to defend Bush's actions on budgetary matters.

My sister was an elementary teacher for many years. She says she can spot a liar in a second. One trait, she says, is widening the eyes when trying to be believed -- trying to get an innocent look.

Some expert in body language should write a piece for submission to WaPo.

7. Blinking Before The Knockout
Don't boxers blink before being knocked out.

For an illustration of what I mean...Check out my new flash animation

Love,
Rocky aka Leslie Gabriel :headbang:

8. I Know One Repuke Who NEVER Blinks
Steve Forbes. He's practically robotic in his unblinking gaze.

9. What about Dan Bartlett?
anybody see him with John Roberts on the initial CBS News story?

that whole big muscle that goes from the side of your nose down to the corner of your mouth was twitching like a frog's leg in Freshman Biology class

that was by FAR the best one I've ever seen. Better than Nixon. Better than Condi at her eye-fluttering, voice-quavering, head-shaking-yes best.

I so wish they play that again so I can tape it. He looked as if he were about two seconds away from bursting into tears, and that jackass Roberts didn't follow up at all. He should have asked him if he'd just come out of ECT, or what.

11. For sure
They have that, "look what i'm getting away with" expression on their face. Let's hope America wakes up before stormtroopers come slamming in their front doors!
