Liar's Club Convention

Around 1970 there was a game show called the 

Liar's Club.

Stars would tell a story about something or 

someone and the contestant would have to judge 

if it was the truth or not.

Well, once again we have the country attending a Liar's Club Convention. It happens every 2 years.. and really gets strong every 4 years.  Others called 

it election year.

We have it local and we have it state wide and national wide.

I have a site that I go to, to see what is true and what is not as it gets hard.  it is called FactCheck.com It is a non biases site.. It doesn't 

take sides, it just has the truth.

Some of the stories that people get by with about their opponents is scary. You wonder how they can get away with that.  It is out and out lies. But because the ad says it, some think it is the truth.  

A lot of people do, and repeat it as truth.

I wonder what would happen if all politicians  had to take a pill that made them tell the truth.  Now that would be interesting.

The skeptic that I am.. I look things up and when I see that it is a lie, then the rest of what that person says, is a lie to me.. Which basely means all politicians lie.

They just don't call it lying.. they call it spinning.

My mother use to say, if it looks like a duck, quacks

like a duck and  walks like a duck.. it is a duck..

So spin if you must, but if it sounds like a lie, looks

like a lie.. then it is a lie.. and you belong to the

Liar's club.. and I am tired of trying to figure out

if it is or not. 

Brace yourself...

It is primary time in Idaho... and the nuts are

loose..

Any one who has Facebook or even just internet,

has seen Idaho politics at it's finest...NOT...

They had a debate, if you want to call it that...

for the Governor's office... As they call it the biker,

curmudgeon, the cowboy (our now governor) and the

"normal guy".

The Governor wanted all the candidates on the platform

with him... I think his purpose was to make him seem like

the best or sanest of the bunch..  But I think what he

ended up with is... Idaho being the laughing stock of the

nation, as the debate has hit You tube and the rest of the

internet media.   And it didn't have to take it very far to

get the rest of the nation to think we are all a bunch of nuts.

If Randy Weaver didn't have it started, there is the Senator

Craig.. and a few others we have sent to Washington, D.C.

that has given us the country bumpkins name.

Well, today the primary is going to be over.. In our state,

the Democrats have an open primary. The Republicans have

it closed as they think it will be tarnished by the Democrats.

But there is no worry there, as the Republicans do a dandy job on their own.  They are so bad off, that they can't get along with each other.  We have 4 or more Republican parties here in Idaho.

2 Reagan (they don't like each other and fight over who is going to claim Reagan) then we have the swift right religious ones, and the Conservative ones.. and that is debatable too.. and then there is the middle Republican. 

So by tonight, we will have some winners, lot of losers, and hopefully

the losers don't include us citizens...

for those with internet.. this is the primary debate.
