Fresh off her phony claims about a Wisconsin man’s business dealings, Heidi Thiess is now feeding her readers some alleged “humor” about a piece of right-wing noise that was debunked days ago.
Allegations last week that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi "demanded" a military jet turned out to be another steaming pile of right-wing horseshit. Pelosi had made no such “demand”. In fact, House Sergeant at Arms Bill Livingwood released a statement days ago stating that he had “request[ed] an aircraft that is capable of making non-stop flights for security purposes”. Be very clear on this: House Sergeant at Arms Bill Livingwood requested the plane. Pelosi did not.
But Heidi never met a lie she wasn’t willing to repeat, if it means smearing someone with whom she disagrees politically. Today Yesterday she posted, without comment, a political cartoon describing a fantasized conversation between Pelosi and an aide, who exults that the Department of Defense “caved” and gave Pelosi the “bigger plane [she] demanded”. Heidi is lying to her readers — yet again.
Alas, Heidi still has not learned that lies always end up coming back to bite the person who invents them — or who helps spread them. If Heidi has any thread of honesty in her, she keeps it well hidden. It’s a pity, really… she could probably become a decent person, if she wasn’t so addicted to spreading naked race hatred and obvious lies.
UPDATE 02/14/07 07:15 AM EST: Heidi has pulled the post... No, she hasn’t. Looks like she merely changed the date on which the post was made, rendering my original link invalid. It’s been corrected above.
