    What else do Republicans have?

    Seriously, how often do the facts or reality ever support their statements?

    False statements are the backbone of American politics. On the left labor is strung along to benefit small groups that want social change, and on the right social conservatives are strung along by small groups that want financial gain. In the end the majority gets nothing for their vote and a small handful of people achieve their objectives.

    All politicians and their supporter make promises, predictions and give opinions that can not be proven to be either true or false when they are said that most people know are not facts and so do not consider it lying. However when they they get facts wrong it hurts them because it makes the look uninformed, stupid and/or dishonest.
