Once upon a time...

Observed a galaxy of a few hundred billion stars where the light we were seeing began its journey toward Earth ten million years ago. Long before there were democrats, republicans, Muslims, Christians...

My Two Cents,

I’m glad to see others are equally offended by this flavor of email. For some reason, I have found myself on numerous pro-republican email lists, and I know the GOP talking heads would call me a part of the “Angry Left”. I guess I am because I’m sure not happy about the mean spirited lies and deceptive practices of so many of these emails. That’s why I use Fact Check.org a truly independent (Annenberg Foundation) site to check on the truthfulness of these emails, talking heads, and TV ads. With Fact Check and Snopes, I get closer to the truth about what both sides are saying --- and not saying.

Still I often wonder why I’m not on any pro-democratic, deceptive email lists and can only speculate that with the last, 8 years of GOP Leadership, the facts spoke for themselves – there was no need to lie. All anyone had to do was ignore the deceptive spin and half-truths spread by the “Happy Right”.
