Why Can't Guinta Tell the Truth?

by: William Tucker

Tue Sep 28, 2010 at 14:53:26 PM EDT

Frank Guinta is out with yet another blatant, black-is-white lie.

Guinta:

Just last week, Shea-Porter signed on to a letter with more than thirty of her far-left colleagues. The letter desperately begged Speaker Pelosi to not hold a vote on the tax cut extension.
Shea-Porter (in the letter to Speaker Pelosi):
As the Bush tax cuts are set to expire, we respectfully urge you to bring to the floor, before Congress adjourns in October, a vote on President Obama's recently proposed tax plan: permanent tax cuts for the middle-class.

If this were an isolated incident, I'd be willing to give him the benefit of the doubt. Candidates occasionally misspeak. But coming on the heels of his student loan "misstatement", and the "inadvertent oversight” of a mystery bank account, and "forgetting" he signed the U.S. Conference of Mayors Climate Protection Agreement, and denying his record as mayor accepting federal stimulus funds and earmarks, the pattern is clear.

Frank Guinta can't be trusted to tell the truth.

Possibly more student loans (0.00 / 0)
are needed?  He apparently can't read.
It is a pandemic (4.00 / 1)
In Delaware, O'Donnell fibbed about attending Oxford:

In Arizona, Brewer lied about headless corpses littering the desert.

Here in New Hampshire, John Stephen lied about why his internet reimbursement was cut off:

And Kelly Ayotte says she did not support the JUA proposal or federal stimulus funding, even though on the former her office issued a supportive opinion and on the latter she was actively seeking finds. Oh, and then there was the promise to fininsh her term, and saying she won the Planned Parenthood case.

But Guinta is very bad, the willingness to flat out make stuff up is getting out of control. I guess when yoiu have access to magical bank accounts, reality is an illusion.

Expect the support staff is not of the same caliber as Dubya (0.00 / 0)
could afford.

LIAR! (4.00 / 3)
That letter says the opposite of what Guinta claims.

The man has become a cariacature of dishonesty.

It would be nice if the delicate press of New Hampshire did something to inform voters of his many prevarications.

It's a good example of taking the intention for the act and (0.00 / 0)
imputing someone else's intention to boot.  The dualist's mind is full of false pairings riding on a see-saw.  So, when one item is advantaged, the other is disadvantaged.  There's a loss for every win.  A middle class win is a high class loss.  

That money is like eating with forks and spoons instead of fingers simply doesn't occur to them.
