"US Troop Deaths In Iraq At Seven Month High"…

…sez the headline from HuffingtonPost, which, I guess means it's time to modify the old, "Greatest Lies of All Time List." So, in no particular order and without getting too risque, here's MY list:

Aw, c'mon, honey, I won't c*m in your mouth again like last time, I promise.

Of course I believe you're a 'good girl' and I'll still respect you in the morning.

Don't foreclose yet! The check's in the mail!

Give us another six months and we will win in Iraq!

The surge is working! We're really making progress now!

The rising death toll for American troops shows we're winning!

The rising numbers of Iraqi fatalities proves the surge is working!

The lack of political progress in Iraq is a sign that the surge is working!

We are not in a recession!

The fundamentals of our economy are sound!

The Iraqi Oil War has nothing to do with oil.

The coming Iranian Oil War has nothing to do with oil.

The coming Venezuela Oil War has nothing to do with oil.

Inflation is low!

Unemployment is down and jobs are up!

Children like going to bed hungry!

Seniors just hate taking medicine all the time.

Israel is in full compliance with U.N. Resolution 242!

And you can get all the truthful important news that counts from Fox News Channel.

ADDITION: "I'm resigning my post in the administration to spend more time with my family."

And remember, we Southerners may not always be right, but by golly we're never wrong. Besides which, I NEVER lie unless I am alone or with someone or under the influence of alcohol, sex, drugs, and rock & roll.

P.S.-UN Resolution 242: The Security Council,
Expressing its continuing concern with the grave situation in the Middle East,
Emphasizing the inadmissibility of the acquisition of territory by war and the need to work for a just and lasting peace in which every State in the area can live in security,

1. Affirms that the fulfillment of Charter principles requires the establishment of a just and lasting peace in the Middle East which should include the application of both the following principles:
(i) Withdrawal of Israel armed forces from territories occupied in the recent conflict;

2. Affirms further the necessity
(a) For guaranteeing freedom of navigation through international waterways in the area;
(b) For achieving a just settlement of the refugee problem;
