<![CDATA[Grist - Comment Feed for Bush didn’t mean he’d <em>literally</em> reduce Middle East imports]]> Grist Comment Feed en Comment #1 by MikeCapone http://www.grist.org/article/sotu-truthiness/ Wed, 01 Feb 2006 14:29:46 -0800 http://www.grist.org/article/sotu-truthiness/1 Libel

It's like with writing something false in a newspaper; the lie is always bigger than the retractation, and it is what sticks in people's mind.

I don't see what the big deal is. In the SOTU Bush promised to reduce our oil imports by X barrels of Middle Eastern oil. Now he's promising to reduce oil imports by X barrels of any oil. He still means the 75% and the 2025, it's just the "Middle East" he changed.
