calling the kettle black


At the bottom, Dubya has signed his name and then added:

(“Liberty” being subject to definition and infringement by the commander in chief for purposes of national security as he defines them.)

Tom Toles is right about der f�hrer, of course.

But for a leftist to complain when someone changes the definition of the word “liberty” whenever it fits his political agenda is the height of hypocrisy!

Indiana Taxpayers on Hook for New Honda Plant
6/29/2006
“Indiana became the winner yesterday in a short five-way race to land the Honda Motor Company’s newest assembly plant in North America. . . . The project will cost the State of Indiana about $140 million. Of that, $40 million will go directly to Honda; about $45 million will be spent on roads and other infrastructure to serve the plant, and another $50 to $55 million will go to improvements in the region in anticipation of growth caused by the plant.” (New York Times, Thursday)
