I’d love to see her evaluate McCain, both Bush’s, Rice, Cheney, Gore, Feinstein, Pelosi, Boxer, and all the rest of them on particulars like the SPP or why gas companies are making record profits, and who owns gas stock.

As to Lacy’s comment “Their lies and their damaging effects top any lies related to sexual shenanigans from Bill Clinton or John Edwards…which really aren’t the nation’s business anyway.” I strongly disagree.

How a person deports themselves in private definitely affects and reflects their personal beliefs in public. If you think screwing around on your spouse is ok, then lying about it must be too, because they lie to cover their guilt.

If your own wife can’t believe what you say, how much less can the people who vote you into office trust that you? It illustrates that cheating politicians have no loyalty to anyone but themselves. Their moral character is corrupt, and this is an indicator of poor decision making, at home and at work. It indicates someone with extremely poor leadership qualities. In the position of national leadership, this is particularly dangerous.

Espcially in the workplace, an affair would be distracting. This isn’t a grocery stand, these people are national leaders with all the responsibilities of national security, weapons secrets and their finger on nuclear weapon buttons.

Everyone knows the neighborhood dirtbag who couldn’t tell the truth to save his life. They get into politics too, it comes naturally to them. I’m by no means saying they are all dirtbags, but I believe there is an unusually high number of them in politics, unfortunately. Check sometime on how many lawyers are in politics.

Yes, by all means, let’s not censure them on how they conduct their private lives, let’s let them slide on the truth.

However, I agree that evaluating McCain would be relevant…and just to round out our education… Bush and Cheney. With the latter two, we now know how many lies were told…but it would be interesting to go back and see how those lies hoodwinked a nation. Their lies and their damaging effects top any lies related to sexual shenanigans from Bill Clinton or John Edwards…which really aren’t the nation’s business anyway.

First, in noting these “classic ‘leakage’ signs” you speak as though these are clear-cut and unequivocal signs, which they are not. I’ve trained people on speaking in public since the 80’s, and many times people will shake their head ‘no’ when they are not lying. They are saying ‘no’ subconsciously to something, in their minds, which could be a lie, or it could be a corresponding negative thought. Watch people and you’ll see it happen. A good example is when people mention regrets, like “I always wanted to go there,” they often shake their ‘no.’ Does this mean they are lying? Or that they are thinking “no, I’ll never get that chance again.” If this means lying, what does that say about your videos, like the one on the right here? You shake you head ‘no’ at a few critical times, blink on some key words, mumble another.

Second, why only analyze Democrats? Regardless of what you feel about Republicans, it’s only fair to analyze them as well.

You teach love and acceptance in so many of your sessions, but this one preaches distrust and hatred. If this is ‘body language that reveals an internal conflict” what does that say about a man who is saying, ‘I love you’ for the first time? That he is lying? Or just conflicted about saying it out loud?
You are a trusted resource for so many, be mindful which path you’re leading them down!

Maybe one day?

At least I know who Martin Bashir is.

At 09:56 – Interviewer: “Did you ever think this would end this way?”
John Edwards: “I don’t think these things ended. Nothing is (something).”
Interviewer: “Your political career.”
John Edwards: “I don’t think … I see no end. I don’t think anything has ended.”

As he says “I see no end”, he lifts all but the heel of his left foot (the part of his body closest to the interviewer) from the floor. On “I don’t think anything has ended”, he puts it down again.

Does that have any significance, do you think?

Why is it when liberals get caught with their pants down they immediately change the subject to others they hate. Most liberals are just like Edwards, they can’t accept the truth about their candidate without equivicating with accusations of the other political side they despise of doing the same.

Your analysis was right on about Edwards! Thank you!!!

I do believe liberalism is a mental disorder. Get some help!

Wendi, the world would be sad place if everything would be as black and white. Thanks heaven there’s so much more to it.

Disappointed,

Remember when they [Ann Coulter, et al.] were saying Edwards was gay?

I guess he showed them.
