Well yeah, Capt'n... The entire campaign by the Repubs is based on lies... They tried a few early on and found that the dems weren't going to challenge them and far be it for the media to challenge them so they said, "Sheet fire!!! Let the lies fly".... And it's been a steady stream of outright lies...
I mean, even here, where Obama reduces the annual budget defcit by $100B the righties say, "Bobert is a liar"??? This is the culture of the right... Lie, lie and load up another batch of lies for tomorrow...
The problem with outright lieing to the elrctorate is that bills will come due... The programs will need to get funded... I mean, you might lie yer way into office once but that ain't gonna keep you there 'cause at some point the voters are going to go "What's up and why ain't you fixin' anything???"
