Lies, damned lies, and claims of lies

When Democrats claim that Republicans lie, they say what the lies are. When Sarah Palin claims the Democrats lie about her, she doesn't think we need any petty details about what they actually said that wasn't true.

This is known in discerning circles as rank composting bullshit.

But McCNN pretends that Obama's putting Bristol Palin's inconvenient troth off limits is relevant to the story, when in fact it's a non sequitur.
