Ive acepted the fact that politicians lie for a living, might be just me i guess.

I can't accept it. It is wrong. Left, right, centrist, socialist, doesn't matter what stripes.

I simply cannot accept it.

PLF.

I like that.

Sounds like some Middle East terror group, doesn't it?

Anyway, I think we're on the same page. Sick of the lies, sick of the defense of those lies. *sigh*

Yep. And it crosses political ideology. I'd like to slap the taste out of ANY politicians mouth that utters those damned lies!

spend your blood pressure getting worked up over local politics. Stuff you can change.

Because you will never change the company.

I admire the act of tilting at windmills.

I liked Ron Paul, Bernie Sanders, Dennis Kucinich, Allen West and a few more as well. And I consider myself to be a conservative.

Why did I like them? Because they had their standards and they stuck to them. But of course, many called them extremists or kooks, etc and with the exception of Sanders, the rest are no longer around. Maybe because they didn't toe the line?

And while I didn't always agree with them, I could respect them.

Yes. we really do need a reset, but I fear that the only real way that such a reset could happen is something along the lines of Tom Clancys "Debt of Honor".

Scary times.

I'm mad that not only does 0bama and every other politician continue to lie...........but mad that they continue to lie outwardly with no shame.

And people continue to buy it.
And make excuses.

I really think if a person tried to consider all that Obama and this admin lie's about, your head would explode, I know mine would, but just think how effective it is in keeping people divided and in the dark.

So I watch for glitches in the agenda and hope to see something coming before it happens. Point being Obama is a boot licking lackey for the real people running this kill from within.

The idea of giving Obama any credit for "anything " even a good lie just does not compute any longer.

That is just a symptom of the fatigue.

Obama lies so much that he can't possible be in control!

He lies because he can.

We've allowed it.

Any and all politicians that lie so easily do so because we have allowed it.

We accept it.

Ah, but it is the wind that offends you.

Yet we return to the ballot box, expecting different, time and time and time again.

Agreed, there for we must accept our fate if we are not willing to do anything more then point out the fact that we do nothing but talk about the insanity bestowed on us in daily dose's.

Back to my point of attempting to be just a little ahead of what is coming...hopefully, maybe, somewhat...you get my meaning.

A dog chasing it's tail will eventually collapse from fatigue.

That's what we are feeling.

With some video editing one could probably make a full tv-marathon of all political lies.


Politics - the art of lying.

You nailed it. Until a zero-tolerance policy by the public for their elected leaders exists and is ENFORCED vigorously and without leniency, this will continue indefinitely.

Beezer may have nailed the lying part, but you've totally missed the 'flogging the dead horse' part.

You can't vote out corruption in politics.

As long as weak people run politics, as long as lobbyists can act with impunity, as long as we allow the lies, corruption will exist!

What charade would that be?

What can be done about it?

Not sure, really.

But I refuse to accept it.

The only way to not accept it is to fight it.

There is only ONE way to fight this and actually WIN:

Deposing tyrants is another matter, but must be done through prayer.

If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land. 2 Chronicles 7:14

We all have four things to do. Each of us have this responsibility. If we proceed down this path, our land will be healed and our sins forgiven. God will restore the temple.

1) Humble ourselves before God and see his authority in our world.

2) Pray

3) Seek his face. This involves searching and knocking on the WORD.

4) Turn from our wickedness in the land. This includes anything that takes rather than gives. If we reverse our polarity and start giving and suffering forward for others, then God will answer our requests in prayer.

When a nation turns on its last vestiges of faith, it is doomed to fall by the tyranny it creates. The US is on the path to this tyranny.

originally posted by: EnochWasRight
God has an answer to the tyranny around us. That answer is to turn to the one that can help.

His vacation started the day he was sworn in. Free house, free health care, free flights to anywhere he wants to go. Free golf, free food, free every damn thing. And might I say he really likes giving the taxpayers money to other countries . All he has to do is play the part.....and trust me, he aint gonna win no damn emmy award. We wanted change from the other so bad, we would have elected Flavor -Flav as the new Potus if he had ran. The whole damn shebang should be changed, we should just pick one out of a damn hat and make him or her be Potus. Am I the only one not looking forward to the next election cycle, I cant be the only one.

I've said it before, but I'll say it again. Every politician should have to take an oath (if they don't already) and sign an "employment contract" stating that if they lie to the American people or the representatives of the American people...they are immediately terminated following a brief fact-finding investigation. They should be considered "under oath" when addressing the public or their representatives and therefore...if lying under oath...they are impeachable.

Personally...to me...lying is one of the worst things a person can do short of direct harm to another person. The liar becomes untrustworthy and therefore, in their political position...useless. Therefore as useless...they should be removed and never allowed to run for public office again. How lying has become acceptable is mind-boggling. I understand that some people take the position of "everyone does it", but that is so wrong. Just because "everyone" does it, does not make it right, legal or acceptable.
