False Witness
Just heard Bush on the radio, claiming that he knew Ahmed Chalabi only barely, mostly as someone "on the ropeline" at fundraisers. So far no story on Google.
I'm surprised he didn't try to make Chalabi into John Kerry's best friend. Or at least Ann Richards'.
I guess it depends on what your definition of "rope line" is:
I'm not a professing Christian, but I could swear there is something in the Bible about not bearing false witness. But since no professing evangelical Christians seem bothered about Bush's loyalty towards his friends, I guess I must be mistaken.
Must just be my moral relativism flaring up again.
