I have a thought, which I have had for some time and has tended to give me some humor.
What would happen if our legislatures were to pass a law against political lies. The law would be against any political lies that gets published. If published by government then government gets to pay the price. If anybody else publishes such they to get the pay the price.
I have no idea about paying the price. I just know that it should have the capacity to educate the political liar that political lying is a really bad idea.
I know, its unlikely that such a think might happen. That too is a shame. On reflection the whole thing is, basically, a shame.
As time goes on, and lying becomes, more and more, the new American way.
Ah, "the American way". I remember the good old days when that actually meant something.
