There are lots of reason for the left's recent problems, and at the top of that list I'll put Lexis-Nexis.  The grandpappy of document search devices, Lexis-Nexis allows people like Ann Coulter to go way back and find out what it was they actually said. If you built a career on mendacity and fraud, you're in trouble. Of course now we have Google, which I'll let represent the millions of other free internet search engines out there. But wait. There's more!

When the Right Honorable George Galloway, left-wing MP, and it goes without saying filthy liar, did his thing before a Congressional committee investigating bribes taken from Saddam Hussein, Galloway got involved in this discussion. Asked if he was aware that Fawaz Zureikat, who was a major donor to Mr. Galloway's Mariam Appeal charity, was taking bribes, Galloway pompously exclaimed:

"Not only did I know that, but I told everyone about it. I emblazoned it in our literature, on our Web site, precisely so that people like you could not later credibly question my bona fides in that regard. So I did better than that. I never asked him if he was trading in oil. I knew he was a big trader with Iraq, and I told everybody about it."

Sigh, his web site (www.Mariamappeal.com) is gone, so we'll have to take his word for it, right (pay attention here, John Kerry) ? NO! I give you (drum roll) ......

Did you know about this? Me neither, until I read "Curious, George!" by Clinton W. Taylor. The WAY BACK MACHINE boasts that it has "40 billion web pages archived from 1996 to a few months ago.." I input one of my blogs, and got this back --instantly.

See what I mean? Sadly, there are still pockets of cancer where the truth takes a back seat to ideology, but for the bulk of Americans who actually like being represented by honorable people, this is a political career death sentence for Democrats, Liberals, and anyone living in Vermont. Oh, I nearly forgot. Galloway was lying.
