Two sides to the same fiat coin. Good way of saying it.. The two party dictatorship as it were. The only thing that changes are the faces and the colors i.e red to blue, blue to red; democrat to republican. All members of the same fraternal clubs. That's putting it lightly :)

Yep, people love the lie. They worship and deify it. Oh but the truth, oh no they can't handle... you already know.  "Men occasionally stumble over the truth, but most of them pick themselves up and hurry off as if nothing ever happened."

 

Funny thing is, that last quote came from a liar lol. Yep, madness it is. Utter insanity. My last call of the evening around... 8:35 was the heart stopper for me. The lady was semi interested in Paul. Articulate, fast talking, and could back up much of what she said with details. Boy did she knit-pick every little thing I said. Kept saying,"Careful, I'm very knowledgeable of these things." You hear that more than a couple times and you start thinking the opposite. Anyway, she tried numerous times to insinuate that I was "new to this" or somehow wet behind the ears. The reality is I was just tired and had been there since 2:00, and I was stammering a bit. Anyway, she kept picking away until finally I brought up the topic of the Federal Reserve. Then she started trying to suggest that I had heard all of these catch phrases somewhere, and that they weren't my ideas. Like, "no shit lady! I mean, really?!!" She wasn't familiar with fractional reserve banking and get this... and try NOT to laugh, she believes we STILL use the gold standard!! She was VERY adamant about this. "You don't just call someone up and tell them are money is not backed by anything when we have a gold standard." I swear to Christ she said this. She also told me that I had misunderstood Ron Paul and that when he talks about returning to "the Gold Standard" he MUST be using a metaphor for something that I have apparently misunderstood and that she, conveniently of course, couldn't explain.

 

I jousted with another lady (earlier) who swore to God Bill O' Reilly was the truth of the world. She thought Ron Paul was kind of "strange" in terms of his mannerisms and message. I slowly convinced her that he meant well and he was an older gentlemen and she agreed but remained hung up on the fact that Bill O' Reilly was the God of Truth and Goodness and Ron Paul will not go on his show. And because of that, she will never vote for him. "The one thing about Bill is he is fair and balanced, and he will get the truth out!" Lol, unbelievable madness that never, EVER ends.

I don't know whether to laugh or cry after reading this blog Krypke. WTF is wrong with people? Romney is like the white version of Obamadonna to me.  They both are smooth talking, Don wannabe puppets who parade around with empty talk and shallow promises.... like snake oil salesman. Why can't people see this? Or do they still love to be lied to and deceived? They must because they keep drinking the stupid juice from these con's. Arghhh, the madness just never ends does it?
