While it is true that many politicians lie often, the problem with Bush's lies is that people lost their lives for it. People who remember when Bush's father was in office will remember the "Read my lips: No new taxes" line and know that yes, there were indeed new taxes. People lost money. Losing money is bad, especially when times are lean as they are for most typical Americans. Losing your life, your home, and your country is worse, though, by no comparable means.
