Not something they dreamed about the night before.

What a bunch of crap. Tell the truth folks when you post, you will find it refreshing!

I do agree and it is sad, our people who are called representatives do not represent us, they get into office and then with their bucket of lies, just enter into a never ending quest to fatten their net worth. It is there and it needs to be scrubbed, just hope that a major change in gov officials might do that. bbbbb

There are those that make a truthful statement and then there are those that are in denial. If one is in denial, they declare the truth as a lie and call the poster names. It slows down the conversation when you have to screen the baiters and trolls but the conversation is still interesting. By inserting links to the articles instead of just making blatant statements of opinion, it is more difficult, but not impossible for the baiters and trolls to argue.

Personally, I try to limit my caustic remarks to just disparaging the politicians, not the poster. That becomes difficult when the attacker attempts to divert by making it a personal attack.

But, there is something to be learned here if one is to dig down into the subject and ignore the childish diatribes. If nothing else, it is entertaining.

For you, truth is the way YOU SEE IT.

Freedom of press is most important when the person speaking DOES NOT AGREE WITH YOU.

Reread you post-it is simply venting. I am thankful that YOU have the right to speak.

BUT, WHAT HAVE YOU SAID OF ANY VALUE???????

"according to a 2002 study conducted by the university of massachusetts, 60% of adults can’t have a ten minute conversation without lying at least once. But even that number makes it sound better than it really is; those people in the study who did lie actually told an average of 3 lies during their brief chat. And i know you’re sitting there right now insisting you would be part of the 40% that didn’t lie. That’s what the liars in the study thought, too. When they watched the taped conversations back, they were shocked at how many fibs they had told."

"but before you vow never to trust anyone again, here’s some food for thought: A study by the university of toronto found that it is actually the most trusting people who are best able to tell when they are being lied to."

60% of people can't go 10 minutes without lying | mental floss

maybe a better question is "are you trusting?"
