Tissue of Lies
Administration toadies just never stop their lying. If I had just $1 for every time they’ve told the same untruth, I’d be as rich as Croesus; or at least retire with riches equal to King George.
Get this straight folks. The governor of Louisiana did declare a state of emergency. On Friday, August 26, a full three days before the storm hit; so quit saying she did nothing.
A Sunday front-page Washington Post story, based on an anonymous administration official, repeated this canard without fact-checking; the next day, on page 2, in tiny print, the Post recanted.
Don’t just take my word for it. Look it up for yourselves.
