I have come to the conclusion that the media and 95% of freeperdom could care less about the truth about candidates.

IF they like them they will parse, ignore flaws, deny, excuse, breastbeat, wail, praise and accuse everyone else of malfeasance and never once admit maybe their candidate made a mistake.

IF they do not like a candidate then every accusation is true and merited. Every flaw accurate and should be magnified and it is all relevant.

And anyone who disagrees is a POS or deserves a FUWD or You're a liberal troll.

Forget what Sarah did or Cain did over and over or never(lol) or Newt said or who he banged or Perry gaffed or Mitt conspired in some tabernacle or what devil Michelle hired.

The saddest and most telling thing is that despite all the talk about truth here and in our culture. It matters little.

It's about perception and a willingness to believe or disbelieve what suits preconceived appraisals.

Major flaw of our kind.

I never really was a big fan of impeaching Clinton for Monica, it was his policies that I opposed. Plus all we would have gotten out of Clinton leaving was Al Gore as President, and most likely a Gore win in 2000/2004. Plus the only politician that lost his job over “Monica Gate” turned out to be Bob Livingston.

I gave up a long time ago on expecting politicians being paragons of virtue, we don’t vote for a Pope. I don’t care about Newt’s relationships with his past wives, it’s his policies I question, but still if he’s the only thing standing between Romney being the nominee (which will guarantee a second term for Obama), then I have no choice but to support Newt, warts and all.
