They are not interested in the truth only whatever will confirm their racist beliefs. My great uncle used to sit around the Thanksgiving table year after year for decades telling us the same stories about how he and his white division went around telling the europeans that the nigger soldiers had tails.

I confess that I enjoyed those tales until I was forced to attend an integrated school and I made friends with a few black kids. To my surprise they were human beings just like me. I just couldn’t laugh at Uncle Phillip’s cruel lies any more.

Nevertheless, most of the family continues to find his stories the high point of the family dinner. They bring their young children and introduce them to the lies.

All I’m saying is they don’t care about the truth. They are only interested in getting rid of Obama because he is black. Who takes his place is unimportant as long as he is white and male.

But Republican voters just seem to love the lies… as long as the rhetoric sounds right and fits in with the beliefs they’re desperate to maintain, then the facts are just a petty annoyance to be disregarded.

There really is a vile and frightening inevitability about this election’s outcome… ignorance actually could still win the day. At which point America’s global credibility will be destroyed for decades to come.

Is the white world so hypocritical and so dishonest that they cannot distinguish between great and a great liar. So if a white man gets up and lies over and over it doesn’t matter as long as it roused the crowd. It is a great speech to whites regardless of the truthfulness of the content.

I am so embarrassed to be white. Thank God I am a white woman not a white man.

Watching pundits from all the News Networks (excluding Fox News Network, which ain’t a News Network) critique and analyze what Ryan had to say during his speech, as if what he said was factual, left me dumbfounded.

Am I wrong in thinking that the major aspect of Ryan’s speech was the fact that a person who hopes to be Vice President of the United States stood on the stage of the RNC and told one lie after another.

There was a time when Journalist would be yelling “stop the presses” in order to get the story out of the magnitude of a potential V.P. giving a speech full of inaccuracies.

He is the best young conservative of a long time, said Ed of MSNBC while he praised his speech. Lying, voter suppression, obfuscation, trickery, racism, bigotry, misogyny …

I mean, come on peeps.. It’s what Republicons do, isn’t it? I know you’re not surprised.

Rachel says “he can spin the story.” Rachel he was NOT spinning the story, he was lying about the story.
