Conservative dickweed and journalist spinman John Fund was on Bill Maher’s Real Time show this past Friday and blatantly lied to the host when he tried to defend Sarah Palin for not knowing what the Bush Doctrine was in her interview with ABC’s Charlie Gibson. Fund actually said, “I write on foreign policy. You couldn’t have gotten me to remember what the Bush doctrine is.” Even when challenged a few minutes later by Bill, he stayed the course:
Bill Maher: Who did not know about the Bush doctrine? Please tell me, specifically. Who didn’t?
John Fund: I certainly wouldn’t have known exactly what…
However, Fund had no problem citing one the most controversial and important foreign policies ever devised by a US president in this 2006 exchange on Fox News:
Look, let’s be clear. The Bush doctrine isn’t dead, but it’s in the freezer, and it’s not coming out anytime soon. Look at the message that the elections and Bush’s sudden and dramatic departure of Rumsfeld sends to the world.
Apparently John McCain’s new campaign slogan “Country First” has come to mean “Party First,” and if that means lying your fucking ass off, so be it. Video evidence of the blatant, dishonest smugness at (1:07) and (5:30).
