Quote of the Day
Posted on the 17 July 2014 by Mikeb302000
In the past, if someone knew nothing and talked nonsense, no one paid
any attention to him. No more. Now such people are courted and flattered
by conservative politicians and ideologues as “Real Americans”
defending their country against big government and educated liberal
elites. The press interviews them and reports their opinions seriously
without pointing out the imbecility of what they believe. The hucksters,
who manipulate them for the powerful financial interests, know that
they can be made to believe anything, because, to the ignorant and the
bigoted, lies always sound better than truth.
