It is so clear.....IT IS ALL SPIN. THE TRUTH IS DEAD.
Listen to some of the media spin - the war is unpopular, so dickhead has to spin it so that it does not seem so. American Idol? All other reality shows? None of them are real - and neither is this. Listen to this bullshit - I wonder if 24 hour cable has contributed to the death of truth - the need to fill the air with dribble. They are all speaking as if any of this speech and any of the ideas came out of the vacuum where his brain should be. What a laugh.

The country is being duped big time.

3. I'm not sure if there has ever been 'truth"
I work with a ton of Republican as editor of a newspaper in a very conservative Michigan town.
These guys really, really, honestly believe this crap.

Just like some Dems completely swallowed everything Clinton did (no pun intended).

I had an eye opener the other day when my boss came back from a convention where Michigan's Democratic governor was speaking.
My boss, a total conservative, came away from the meeting with Granholm very disappointed by the politics the republicans were playing with the state election coming up.

It was good to see a republican open her eyes and see that politics has completely soured us on the truth.

It's a freakin' shouting match anymore.

I'm disgusted by it.
