I'm surprised that anyone is still believing anything what Bush says after it is crystal clear that he has used blatant lies from the very beginning to start his Iraq war.

But this attitude - I am xxx party supporter therefore I will blindly believe anything that xxx says - is what leads to the typical behaviour of the candidates not to say anything about what they will do or change when they are elected. Like in this case, any clear statement surely will be blurred, distorted and taken out of context by the other side, presented as something utterly negative, and will be believed and repeated by the followers regardless of its total falseness.

Because such lies are tolerated so much, this lack of any significant statements will continue. Lies are the worst in political business, and as long as honesty is not a deceicive value for the voters, you get what you have.
