As you will see from below the only difference between the politician
and the constituent is that he is more subtle in his imputations of
motives. So, if you were to question me who is violating the
Commandment more flagrantly, it is definitely the "base" or the
pundits than the politicians. My question to Janice is why is it so
difficult for you to see politicians of all stripes imputing motives
of their opponents and that it is extremely popular with their
respective bases?
Politician imputing motives of appeasement without evidence thus
violating the Ninth Commandment
(http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=10000087&sid=aCMOt3rC1JzY&refer=top_world_news):
Representative Walter Jones, a North Carolina Republican, said that
Bush, by proposing a National Guard deployment, is ``just trying to
get a bill passed and appease the conservatives somewhat.'' Bush's bid
for support won't work, Jones said.
Constituent imputing motives with a
vengeance(http://newsbyus.com/more.php?id=3593_0_1_0_M):
When 4437 left the house, Rep Tancredo suggested we all get
comfortable and watch the senatorial performances that were to follow.
He was right about that too wasn't he?
The performances in and of themselves have been nothing exceptional:
McCain contorting his reptilian countenance into what he thinks
sincerity and intelligence might look like, Kennedy sputtering and
posturing, the always nauseating Durbin and the sad, pathetic Arlen
Specter.
No surprises. Malevolent gas bags all.
Certainly Mr. Tancredo and the rest of us couldn't have foreseen the
freak show of millions of illegal aliens demanding their "rights" or
the President of the United States so obviously lying about
immigration and border security on national television.
Who could have foreseen the breathtaking arrogance of a petty tyrant
like Bush patting us on our unwashed, empty heads while mumbling, "…
border enforcement advocates are not 'racist'…"?
Well thanks anyway Comandante Boosh, but won't that kind of talk
alienate your constituency in Mexico?
