I wouldn't go as far as to say I love her, but I don't dislike or hate her either. She's a human; prone to following orders and making mistakes the same as we are ..... your jealousy of her, and your attitude toward fellow humans however, is adorable®.
Mohammed Saeed al-Sahhaf (Arabic: محمد سعيد الصحاف Muḥammad Saʿīd Al-Ṣaḥḥāf; born 30 July 1940) is a former Iraqi diplomat and politician. He came to wide prominence around the world during the 2003 invasion of Iraq, during which he was the Iraqi Information Minister under Iraqi President Saddam Hussein, acting as the spokesperson for the Arab Socialist Ba'ath Party and Saddam's regime.
He is best known for his grandiose and grossly unrealistic propaganda broadcasts before and during the war, extolling the invincibility of the Iraqi Army and the permanence of Saddam's rule. His announcements were met with widespread derision and amusement by Western nationals and others with access to up-to-date information from international media organizations. In the US he was popularly known as Baghdad Bob and in Britain as Comical Ali (a joke derived from Saddam's cousin Ali Hassan al-Majid, who was also known as "Chemical Ali").

She'da fit right in as a Democrat.
Obama and Clinton weren't saints, but haven't told as many blatant lies in the last eight years as Trump or Conway tell in a given week.
They compare favorably to Cruz or any other serious Republican alternatives in recent election cycles with the possible exception of Romney. And at worst they'd be equal to Romney.
"Obama and Clinton weren't saints, but haven't told as many blatant lies in the last eight years as Trump or Conway tell in a given week."
Obama and Clinton were experienced politicians who were experienced in fluff.
Inexperienced Conway and Trump are shooting from the hip; speak first, think later.

Translation:
Obama and Clinton were vague at worst rather than telling lies.
Conway and Trump are a firehose of lies, but it doesn't count because that's their style.
Vrede too wrote:"President* Trump has decades of experience in lying, as has been thoroughly documented." As does every politician alive. Except that those other politicians quickly learn not to tell blatant lies, because the fact checkers will nail them. Trump is DIFFERENT. He's a firehose of lies, a Distributed Denial of Service attack on fact checkers.

"Not that I'm a fan of the Dems but good look finding any with scores that poor." A good look produces good luck ... ?
The only difference is Trump is too dumb to at least leave himself some plausible deniability. He just blatantly lies and contradicts himself and his red hats just go ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
You aren't doing it wrong if no one knows what you are doing.

Even if one were to accept Mr.B's bullshit claim that they're all lying equally, a politician who is at least competent at lying would be a better choice than someone as comically incompetent at it as Trump.

I've never denied that fact. **Ya think maybe he could put a copyright on that ...?

"It's no surprise that serial liars like Mr.B defend other serial liars by desperately trying to create false equivalencies." Me...? A serial liar? It appears that you are "desperately®" trying to deflect from yourself.
It's not working; you're only making yourself look more foolish ... if that's even possible; surely there's a limit somewhere.

What I said about "experienced politicians" and his inexperience (as a politician).
He may well be an experienced liar, but the experienced politician liar is a whole different breed.
He's not grasped the entire meaning of "I misspoke" --- Kelley's getting there.

Yeah true that. But still, even as a "successful businessman", you'd think he'd be a bit more eloquent. Hell, many of those in management at my company are way more sly than Red Don.
