When Rush Limbaugh started insulting people and telling out and out lies, I thought folks would turn their backs in disgust.

Instead, quite a few became devotees of Limbaugh. Strange.

If advertisers hadn't pulled out, he'd probably still be on air spewing his lies.

Politicians have always shaded the truth. But if you can say something that is provably false, and no one cares, then you can’t have a real debate about anything."

"I firmly believe that you can draw a straight line from Rush Limbaugh through Fox News through present-day websites like Breitbart and the explosion in “fake news” that played such a big role in the 2016 campaign. And that’s how someone like Trump can wind up in the Oval Office."
Thanks & respect for link, much appreciate the piece of sanity, will definitely give it a read later on today.

One wonders, is the old expression, "May you live in interesting times" a blessing or a curse? Or some kindof harbinger of dark comedy to come? What with ...

Today nonsense over a mid-night miss spelled word. We all make errors and can admit them. POTUS does not have that ability. Will be a big issue if something really bad happens.



Then a tweet claiming how well he did on his trip. Well they did not start a war with our allies, so I guess it went OK.

Trump isn't just hiding the truth, he's trying to create an alternate reality.

Why Trump lies: It’s not to hide the truth. It’s to alter reality.

POTUS now playing reality TV with the fate of our Kids and grand kids ability to breath or even live on this planet. We will get to join Nicaragua and Syria as the only nations not in the Paris Accords.

What's interesting is, Nicaragua is moving forward with alternative power and green energy at a high rate, one of the reasons they did want to get involved is because they thought those that didn't hold up their end of the deal wouldn't be penalized. They thought the deal was too weak.
