DISHONESTY

I have written about this before.  Why are Republicans specifically unable to tell the truth?  They'll say or do something and then deny they did it.  You go down the list starting with Romney and Ryan to congressman and state officials, and it's a common theme.  Oh, they say I didn't say or mean that.  It is so disenchanting as an American to see the incompetence and flat out dishonesty in our new breed of people who want to be part of the government.  I don't exclude Democrat's, but it seems to me the preponderance of the dishonesty is coming from the Republican side.

THE CRAZIES ARE RUNNING THE ASYLUM

The state of Louisiana is providing state funding for some private schools.  It has come to light that several of these schools are faith based, and have some strange ideas they want to teach.  The one that jumped out at me was the one statement from a text book that says the book The Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck perpetuates the “rumor” of foreclosure of homes and high unemployment in the 1930’s.  It’s like the depression never really happened.  These are the same kind of people who deny the Holocaust.  For some reason facts mean nothing and reality is whatever they say.  Is it any wonder that the Republicans are against education for the masses?   They want to keep their base stupid. They are easier to brainwash with all their crazy ideas.   You don’t have to look hard in the Republican Party to find the deniers of science or history, just check out Michelle Bachmann or Steve King.  These people are nuts.
