          This administration may be stupid about a lot of things, but if they think Americans are stupid, they’re in for a surprise!

          Everybody has bad days. Sundays are Susan Rice’s.
          Sundays are so bad for Rice that she would be better off staying in bed and steering clear of the Sunday talk shows.
          It’s hard to find a person like her, but lucky for them, the Obama administration did.
          She has all the qualities they want in...

They're Putting Their Thumbs On The Scale

May 14th, 2014 10:24 pm

"One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we’ve been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We’re no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It’s simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that we’ve been taken. Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back.” Carl Sagan
