Do you have to be a liar to be a Republican?

Caught giving false information, Horowitz attacked Media Matters with (yet another) falsehood
"Responding to a Media Matters item exposing his false claim that the Senate Intelligence Committee "exonerated" President Bush for stating that "[t]he British government has learned that Saddam Hussein recently sought significant quantities of uranium from Africa" -- when in fact the language he quoted was from the British Butler report -- David Horowitz wrongly asserted that the Senate Intelligence Committee "cited the Butler report." In fact, the Senate Intelligence Committee did not cite the Butler report, which was released almost a week after the Intelligence Committee released its report".
You definitely need to be a liar to continue to defend Bush's use of the '16 words' he used in his State of the Union address in January 2003. Even Bush's little lying poodle, Condi Rice admitted using those words was a 'mistake', as did another infamous liar from the administration, Ari Fleischer. George Tenet also admitted that the 'words should never have been included' in Bush's speech. If you continue to defend Bush's claim in his 2003 SOTU that, "The British government has learned that Saddam Hussein recently sought significant quantities of uranium from Africa", like David Horowitz continues to do, then you are a proven liar.
Rice: What we've said subsequently is, knowing what we now know, that some of the Niger documents were apparently forged, we wouldn't have put this in the President's speech -- but that's knowing what we know now. (She was lying-they KNEW it was false THEN and that's been proven) Fleischer: Now, we've long acknowledged -- and this is old news, we've said this repeatedly -- that the information on yellow cake did, indeed, turn out to be incorrect. Tenet: These 16 words should never have been included in the text written for the President.
