democrat or republicon?

how can you tell someone's lying?
Wholesale prices for popular brand-name prescription drugs rose an average 7.1% in 2004, more than twice the general inflation rate, a new study commissioned by the nation's largest seniors lobby says.
...
Ken Johnson of Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America, the trade group of brand-name drugmakers, called the study "exaggerated and misleading." He said the use of wholesale prices excludes factors such as rebates that could cut retail costs.

"Price data clearly shows prescription-drug prices have increased about 4% a year," Johnson said. He called that in line with growth in other health costs.

when they use words like 'exaggerated and misleading' and especially when those words come out of the mouth of a republicon.  i'd bet my life on the fact that mr johnson is a bush enabler.  so how could anybody believe him?
