...statements on Iraq's weapons of mass destruction, which turned out to be far from truthful. In the case of Haiti, I accept the U.S. version of events but wish I were able to do so without thinking of the boy who cried wolf. No one believes a liar, even when he is telling the truth.

...cross-examination, the defense zeroed in on Faneuil, tarring him as a liar who smoked pot and had tried the drug ecstasy. That might have been a tactical error. Jurors said after the trial that the most damaging testimony came from Stewart's assistant, Ann Armstrong, who sobbed on the stand before describing how Stewart at one point altered part of a phone log showing she had heard from Bacanovic on the day in question. Armstrong convinced the jurors that Faneuil was believable. "That was one of the strongest things that showed there was some kind of cover-up," said...

...Massachusetts liberal, a "card-carrying member of the A.C.L.U." He was soft on crime; he opposed the Pledge of Allegiance. The anti-Gore campaign was pure character. The Vice President was a phony who couldn't even figure out what to wear--remember earth tones? He was a liar, an exaggerator--remember how he invented the Internet? He was "uncomfortable in his skin." The anti-Kerry campaign will be a little bit of both, but the real emotional traction will involve character more than ideology.
