YEGPARIAN: LIARS' CLUB DISSENSION

What do Presidents Barack Obama and Nicolas Sarkozy, Prime Minister
Benjamin Netanyahu, and Armenian Genocide denier Abraham Foxman
have in common? They're all liars, it's seems. But they're also
involved in the latest "open mic" scandal, when reporters heard the
two presidents speaking over a system meant for interpretation that
they didn't realize was still live.
It seems Sarkozy, while speaking to Obama, called Netanyahu a liar
(LA Times, Nov. 9, p. A3, "Sarkozy calls Israel's leader a liar"). Now,
I can't vouch for the veracity of that pronouncement, but let's assume
it's true, just to keep our quartet together.
You certainly know Obama's a liar. He promised to properly characterize
the Armenian Genocide as such, and has reneged thrice, on each of
the April 24's he has been in office.
Sarkozy ran on the promise of supporting passage of a law forbidding
denial of the Armenian Genocide, then changed his tune once in office.
And of course, good old dishonest Abe of the Anti-Defamation League
(ADL) and his "tantamount to genocide" comment-which is genocide
denial, which is lying-is a past master at the art of deceit.
Here's what's funny. Liar Obama complains to Liar Sarkozy that he
was disappointed at not being alerted to France's intent to vote
for Palestinian membership in UNESCO. This was after Liar Sarkozy
complained about Liar Netanyahu being, well, a liar. We don't know
if there was any contact between Liar Netanyahu and Liar Foxman about
this matter, though it's entirely possible. But, Liar Foxman took it
upon himself to express deep sadness and disappointment about Liars
Obama and Sarkozy's exchange about Liar Netanyahu. And, we have a
liars' loop!
Can't these liars all just lie (or would that be lay?) in their bed
of deceit together and get along? After all, they are, all four,
playing on the same cheating team of duplicitous shame.
Contact whichever one (or more) of these liars you want, and tell
them what you think of their ways.
Note: Please excuse the error that crept into my previous piece whereby
I identified al-Bashir as Somalia's, rather than Sudan's, president.
