Hayworth&#8217;s mouth is incapable of forming words that are not  completely false.<\/p>\n<p>For example: Hayworth told Maddow that she was wrong in saying he had  been one of congresses top recipients of money from crook-lobbyist Jack Abramoff.  He was actually just ninth, he said! Turns out, that was a lie; he was  ninth only if you counted &#8220;groups&#8221; in addition to individual  legislators.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>What a clown.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tagList\">Tags: <a  rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/firedoglake.com\/tag\/early-morning-swim\/\" rel=\"tag\">Early Morning Swim<\/a>, <a  rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/firedoglake.com\/tag\/j-d-hayworth\/\" rel=\"tag\">J.
