I don’t know what the ruling here ought be, but I tend to think “Pants on Fire” should be relegated to things that are so utterly baseless, that they were essentially just conjured from thin air.<\/p>\n
So here’s what we have.<\/p>\n
Liberal group claims Mitt Romney, Dick Cheney, Donald Trump, others are draft dodger<\/a>s.<\/p>\n And this is ruled “Pants on Fire”.<\/p>\n I am well aware of the pit falls of this accusation, as well a bit of the double standard through the last four decades of our nation’s history, but whatever the defamatory “Draft Dodger” charge — a deferment and obvious exiting from Vietnam while supporting the war lands on a sort of “here’s the point being made”.<\/p>\n Throwing away the man Mitt Romney — Mormon missionary service counted for something, even as he charged around campus lobbing rhetorical spitballs at Vietnam Protesters as his dad slid into controversy around the word “Brainwashing” — and just kind of shrug at others… the figure that demands some attention here is about here…<\/p>\n Limbaugh\u00c2\u00a0and Nugent were ultimately disqualified from service for medical reasons, according to Snopes.com and TheSmokingGun.com<\/em>.<\/p>\n Ted Nugent<\/a>. \u00c2\u00a0And I have heard liberals tell of this fabled story…<\/p>\n Nugent claimed later about his “Draft Avoidance” technique of … being as revolting as possible… \u00c2\u00a0he was messing with a gullible High Times reporter.<\/p>\n Never mind that this dove-tails in with his Rock persona of the time, never mind that parts of the story he has verified even while denying… it is why Snopes calls the story “Undetermined”.<\/p>\n If Nugent wanted people to believe it then, I’d just go ahead and say… let everyone believe it now.<\/p>\n And for Politi-fact… so it goes for your Democratic partisan “sigh<\/a>“.<\/p>\n
