****************************************************************

Did you open the link? It was posted on USA Today. I watched both conventions and fact check shows they both stretch the truth and in some cases just out right lied.

Both Democrats and Republicans so don't think I am taking sides here!

They lie because, we the people allow it. They know some of the media will report on it.

We need to step up to the plate and demand honesty. There is a lot we should be doing. The people we elect are not representing us. They are in office for their own glory and all the power they can grab.

We the people are too apathetic and too busy with our own lives. We need a really strong grassroots effort, dem and pubs together.

Political fibbing has been part of our culture for a long time.

Imagine if only one party did it?

I knew when he said the bailouts of the auto industry were successful, that that had to be a lie.

The only close to innovation out of Detroit recently is the Volt, and that's been a flop.

I think what's been a drain on the auto industry is all the regulations required in vehicles. In the 70s and 80s, the market was full of bare-bones car that sipped fuel and sold for cheap.

Now we have glorified golf carts selling at $15k

The convention was too good for anyone to rain on my parade.

No point in letting facts get in the way.
