And, indeed, to the whole of the United States Congress – from the Orlando Sentinel:
In an attack ad labeling his opponent ” Taliban Dan” Webster, U.S. Rep. Alan Grayson uses Webster’s own words to prove the Republican thinks wives should be subservient to their husbands.
One problem: The Grayson campaign edited the original video, chopping it up and taking Webster’s words out of context. Webster actually was advising husbands to bypass those particular Bible passages, according a longer video clip released Monday by Webster’s campaign…
…(Webster’s) wife, Sandy, said his words were taken out of context…”Alan Grayson is a disgrace to this district.”
I won’t link to the Grayson ad because it is nauseating in its falsehood – quite honestly, he deserves to be expelled from the House, or at least censured. That won’t happen, of course, because the Democrat leadership doesn’t care how disgusting the lie is; their only concern is whether or not it will work. If Grayson manages to get re-elected, then Democrats will be fine with whatever he does.
But there is a matter of honor – and this isn’t just an over-eager mistake; this is the deliberate falsification of what a person said in order to slander him in public. It is a lie, more over, designed to provoke hatred and division.
The Democrat party will stand in disgrace just as long as Grayson is a member – and especially an elected member.
