The Difference Between a (D) and an (R)

Sean Hannity was interviewing Maurice Hinchey (D-NY) on Hannity and Colmes last night. The following exchange ensued:

HANNITY: I'm listening to what you're saying. So you're saying when the President told the nation that Saddam's nuclear threats are a real grave danger to America and Saddam's WMDs are a threat to America, you're saying that George W. Bush purposely lied to America? Is that what you're saying? HINCHEY: I'm saying whoever wrote that speech gave false information to the Congress. Whether or not the President knew it when he gave the speech, I'm not sure. Whoever wrote that speech certainly did. HANNITY: The only problem is Congressman, the words I just said to you were John Kerry's words. John Kerry said that to America. You voted for John Kerry. Now I'll ask you, did John Kerry give false information to America? HINCHEY: John Kerry, I think, made a mistake and voted for the resolution — HANNITY: Oh, he made a mistake and Bush is a liar.(Via MediaBlog at NRO)

Just before Hannity's last line above I said to my husband. So, if President Bush had said it, it was a lie, but because Kerry (we still haven't seen your military records) said it, it was just a mistake. That's the difference between having a (D) after your name or having an (R) after your name. Remember though, that this is Maurice Hinchey. Back in February he was the one who said that Karl Rove was behind the documents that played such an important role in Ra^thergate.
