Our regular readers know that here at pure bs we have no issue with partisanship when it is backed up by verifiable evidence.

However, when partisans lie, we take serious issue with this.

Sadly, no takes the WSJ editorial page to task over just an issue.(hat tip to Atrios)

I have a huge problem with dishonesty. I am as honest with you as I can be. If I'm speculating about something, you'll know it. I don't much care if a guy like Bush is an incompetent ass. I can deal with that. It's the lying that rankles this observer. Even if I agreed with every policy position of the Bush Administration, I could not support them for their incessant lying.
