The dictionary definition has already been posted yet you keep ignoring it. Could it be you just don't have any point other then denying the obvious?

I'll put up three options

#1. Lying by omission
Lying by omission is when an important fact is omitted, deliberately leaving another person with a misconception. This includes failures to correct pre-existing misconceptions. One may by careful speaking contrive to give correct but only partial answers to questions, thus never actually lying.

#2. Misleading
Misleading is when a person tells a statement that isn't an outright lie, but still has the purpose of making someone believe in an untruth.

or

#3. Exaggeration
Exaggeration is when the most fundamental aspect(s) of a statement is true, but the degree to which it is true is not correct.

and the definition

lie 2 (l)
n.
1. A false statement deliberately presented as being true; a falsehood.
2. Something meant to deceive or give a wrong impression.

quoted so that Ming can ban you if you decide to edit.

Let me highlight a very special word, for a very special little boy

A false statement deliberately presented as being true; a falsehood

If they believe it is truth (as many in this thread have stated they believe to be the case), then they could not have deliberatley presented an untruth as a truth now could they.

To forstall your inevitable temper tantrum I will repeat, as I do in all your "look at me" threads, that I believe the Admin was wrong. That, however, does not equal lie.

Unless you maintain every time someone is wrong about some thing they are a lair?

Aren't you people banned from responding to each other?

Anyway:

How do you rube someone's face?

[Dinner]

rub rather, as you well know. Oh, and nice to see Patty only looks at one definition out of a possible five. The other four just don't count for him, I guess.

[Dinner]

Of course even that one cherry picked definition shows that Bush lied. He deliberately said the proof was "bullet proof", "undeniable", and absolutely solid" when it was none of those things. Did he not deliberately use false and misleading words?

2. Something meant to deceive or give a wrong impression.

Oh, BURN!

[DinoDoc]

You wrote rube, not rub.

The first one is the most common and the most used. This is kind of like debating ther number of angels dancing on the head of a pin though, imo.

Rather freudian in a self descriptive way when one considers it.

[Berzerker]

for those of you who think Bush et al was honest, how many times a day do you need watering?

Uhhhh... you are just as bad Oerdin...

Seriously, Ming? This is the stance you're going to take?

[Barnabas]

Even Mobius and the Dixie Chick always knew it was all a lie, it was not that difficult to see.

Bush alienated all the people around the world who supported the USA in Afghanistan with his Iraq invasion

[Wiglaf]

Who cares what they think? In case you haven't noticed, the rest of the world's opinions on our Iraq policy are completely irrelevant. If Canada wants to invade us they will learn quickly that hockey sticks are no match for our tanks and M16s.

Most of the world is backwards anyway, especially the Mexican judicial system. We don't want them on our side.

[RGBVideo]

really sad

"We know for a fact"

"We have built proof evidience"

"There is no difference between"

These are all absolute statements and claims that Saddam was in bed with Al Qaeda when they knew no such thing. That's what you call a lie.

No, thats what you call a lie, which like so much of your lexicon is dictated by what you want things to be vice what things are. Example #2, "bigot."

Its called a dictionary Oerdin. I suggest you try using it instead of rhetoric to understand what words mean.

Is this what you call a copout?

You were repeatedly and forcefully lied to and you're now trying to spin this into a trivial mistake just because you're identifying yourself into the same team with the guy who lied to you. Congrats, you were ****ed in the *** and are now loudly yelling that you enjoyed it.

[Patroklos]

Please provide one instance of me calling the mistake "trivial." Exactly.

But you have undone yourself, as you yourself just called it a mistake. Again, as I have said a thousand times when confronted with Oerdin's hysterics, the admin was WRONG. No matter how trivial or colossal you might think that wrong is, that is still what it is and not a lie.

Despite all Oeridns temper tantrums he has yet to overcome the very simple definition of the word. He even resorted to "That 70's Show" quotes to you his ever lasting shame, and he still fails.
