Who's a liar, liar pants-on-fire? Neither candidate apparently, according to answers given to Katie Couric as part of her "Presidential Questions" series. Couric asked last night, "Describe a situation when you think it's appropriate to lie to the American people." Here's what the candidates had to say:
Obama said of his truthiness policy, "You can put together a hypothetical where there is a national security emergency that is imminent, and you don't want to provide, for example, the location of our troops. You don't have to lie in those situations, you simply say, 'we're not answering questions.' I don't think it's appropriate to lie." He goes on to say he wants to change the "fudging" and the soft lies culture in Washington. Do you think the above description counts in this category?
McCain says he can't think of any real or logical scenario where he would feel compelled to lie to the American people, and when probed on the national security hypothetical, he says, "But if you deceive the American people and you want their support and you want them to beat back this national security challenge and you don't tell them the truth about it, then I think they become disillusioned. That's happened in the past." Hmm. I wonder how far "past?" It sounds so familiar. . .
The segment did reveal one critical detail — to see what it is, read more
I love these old television shows. They always had at least one PSA-style cautionary tale episode about the evils of sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll. Take Quincy (1976 - 1983) starring Jack Klugman — the medical examiner who cared. In this episode, a girl gets messed up through her association with "violence-oriented punk rock music." So of course ol' Quincy has to investigate. Let's see what we find out about those evil punk rockers zombie killers . . .
I just read an article that talked about teen abortion rates decreasing, though the rates haven't changed much for older women. I'm sure you all have opinions about abortion in general, but does your view point change in cases where the woman is older and married? Do you think a responsible, married couple should go through with having a baby even if it was unplanned, maybe even unwanted, just because they're in a committed relationship? Or are you pro-life or pro-choice in all circumstances? Tell me where you stand when it comes to abortions when you're married, and remember, even though this is a pretty heated subject, you still need to respect your fellow Sugar users' opinions.
You know poor Mike here was teased mercilessly as a teen. So, Mike, I apologize in advance for prolonging your pain, but I just cannot help myself. Bwahahahaha!
