Would you support those who lie to you?

Would you knowingly support an entity after they repeatedly lie to you?  As members of Congress scramble to get themselves re-elected, they like to take credit for all sorts of accomplishments to get your vote. By far the best of these lies is the fact that the recession has been squelched for over a year now, thanks to the great job they’ve done.  Let’s review some of their other achievements while we decide if we should vote for them again.

Just say no to more property tax levies

We have a deep and forecasted long recession; global financial crisis not seen since Great Depression. Government bailouts, economic stimulus packages.

The goal was appreciated.
