SPINNING LIARS!

ANOTHER SHAMELESS SPIN!

What an irony!
Just hours after Tun Dr.Mahathir Mohamad deliberated here http://www.chedet.com/ about ‘A Study In Spinning’ the shameless LIARS have done it again.

My fellow Malaysians, we must STAND UP and STOP this!

Compare the following ‘Bernama’ news articles and THINK for yourself.

ABDULLAH: Early leadership transition possible

BERNAMA
PUTRAJAYA, WED: Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi said the leadership transition which had been agreed upon by him and his deputy Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak in 2010 can take place much earlier.

“The timing is flexible. If I want to go earlier, it is possible,” the prime minister told a news conference at his office here. Najib was also present at the news conference.

Abdullah said the transition plan would depend, among others, on Najib’s performance. Pressed further on the timing, Abdullah said, “It could be between now and June 2010.”

Saying that both leaders were committed to the succession plan, Abdullah said he would defend the Umno presidency at party polls in December while Najib had also confirmed that he would not challenge Abdullah for the post.

When asked further on the timeframe, Abdullah said, “It is not for you to ask and for me to say.”
Abdullah said the matter would be decided accordingly as the succession process takes place. Meanwhile, Najib concurred with Abdullah, saying they both had reached an agreement on the matter.

He hoped that the transition plan would be accepted by the party for the sake of the country’s stability and party solidarity.

Najib also said that he would not accept any nomination for the president’s post as he was commited to the succession plan. (The SPINNING part)

(The above article is OBVIOUSLY a NST-kitchen-cooked Bernama piece)

And this is the actual Bernama piece on the National News Agency’s website.

Apa kata ahli Umno dan pembaca NST start buat laporan POLIS terhadap NST kerana 'MENYEBARKAN BERITA PALSU dan MENIMBULKAN KERESAHAN DIKALANGAN RAKYAT". Tak salah kan?

At least kita mungkin dapat tahu siapa sebenarnya 'pelacur' dlm NST yg melacurkan suratkhabar itu.

Ok ker? Ada orang Umno yg berani bertindak ker? Kita ber-arak ramai-ramai buat laporan polis, lepas tu kita buat protes secara aman di-Jalan Riong.

Lepas tu kita pi berbuka puasa kat Mahbob. ok ?

Kita jumpa di Balai Polis Brieckfields pukul 4 petang ini.
