Here is Mitt Romney 2008 calling out McCain in 2008 for his obnoxious lying:
Transcript below the fold.
I think Senator McCain was called for what everyone has said is a false accusation. The New York Times, Washington Post, Time Magazine, Bill Bennett everbody is saying what he said is simply wrong, reprehensible. I think it was a huge mistake on his part. He wants to stick with it uh, so he is going to take the shots for it, as long as he is doing that. I think people are going to say, "What is the heart and soul of the Republican Party going forward?"
Hmm....interesting, doncha think?
He sure seems to think it is reprehensible when the NYT and other mainstream media call out a candidate for lying...or at least he did. But Romeny 2012 has all new firmware apparently becuase the truth, eh, not so important.
“Fact checkers come to this with their own sets of thoughts and beliefs, and we’re not going to let our campaign be dictated by fact checkers,” he [Romney Advisor] said.
Looks like Mitt got his answer to his question about the Heart and Soul of the Republican Party. Lies ho!! Full steam ahead!
