Imagine if Republicans, or a conservative group, aired an ad against some liberal candidate or law that was judged to be a complete lie...you would never see the MSM mention it, much less run it. Perhaps Fox News might, but they would be burned by everyone else for doing so, again without mentioning the ad.
But when liberals lie in their ads, they are allowed - and CNN, the Communist News Network, airs it without any reservations whatsoever.
Liberals lying? Can someone tell us something new?
NARAL Falsely Accuses Supreme Court Nominee Roberts
An abortion-rights group is running an attack ad accusing Supreme Court nominee John Roberts of filing legal papers “supporting . . . a convicted clinic bomber” and of having an ideology that “leads him to excuse violence against other Americans” It shows images of a bombed clinic in Birmingham , Alabama .
The ad is false.
And the ad misleads when it says Roberts supported a clinic bomber. It is true that Roberts sided with the bomber and many other defendants in a civil case, but the case didn't deal with bombing at all. Roberts argued that abortion clinics who brought the suit had no right use an 1871 federal anti-discrimination statute against anti-abortion protesters who tried to blockade clinics. Eventually a 6-3 majority of the Supreme Court agreed, too. Roberts argued that blockades were already illegal under state law.
The images used in the ad are especially misleading. The pictures are of a clinic bombing that happened nearly seven years after Roberts signed the legal brief in question.
Any word from CNN, or an interview with NARAL on this bullshit? Of course not.
Liberals lie, and other liberals cover up for them. And liberals get angry at Fox News for providing a refuge from these scumbags who wish to control our news and thus our lives.
