Case in point: On the trail just now in Pennsylvania, McCain again repeated a lie about Joe Biden, even though it was debunked as false days ago. He said:
But this claim was exposed as false by CNN days ago. Biden simply never said that people making less than $150,000 are the "only" people who should get tax relief."But this week, Senator Joe the Biden said tax relief should only go to middle class people making under $150,000 a year. And remember when he equated patriotism to paying taxes?"
Apologies for being so earnest about this. But the fact that McCain lied to the American people nonstop for months on end, in the firm belief that he could get away with it because the American people would be too stupid to know the difference, is, perversely, one for the history books. Let's not let the amnesia kick in when the inevitable effort to rehabilitate McCain's reputation and honor gets underway after this campaign is over.
