I have someone on my FB feed who was cheering Cruz on just last week, saying that we need more patriots like him in Washington. No more wimps like Boehner and McCain. She was applauding his Green Eggs and Ham 21 hour gasbag fest telling us he will shut down the Government. Now she's posted several things about Obama shutting down the government and personally closing National Parks. Somehow he is actively keeping Veterans away from the Vietnam Memorial, the ocean!!?? AND a housing development in Nevada.
They aren't even fact-checking themselves to recognize that their reality of last week doesn't match with this week.
(And is anyone else tired of fact-checking for them and doesn't bother with it anymore?)

Life is way too fucking short to spend with racist cretins.
