I am a moderate and normally pretty tolerant of both left and right. I think all of their ideologies are impractical. But I don’t like to be lied to, and when the entire conservative media establisment, plus a Tea Party congressman, are all spreading an outright lie like this, it is time to get worried about our democracy.

    I ain’t never heard that you can make money without spending money…
