Sucker! Sucker! Oh, sucker…<\/strong>
\n Yeah, I am a liar<\/strong>
\n Yeah I like it…I’ll lie again and again<\/strong>
\n And I’ll keep lying<\/strong>
\n I promise<\/strong><\/p>\n

-Henry Rollins<\/strong>
\n “Liar”<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Ever hear “Liar” by Henry Rollins?<\/p>\n

It’s about how he purposefully (disturbingly) lies to a woman TRYING to ruin & corrupt her.<\/p>\n

No remorse.<\/p>\n

No guilt whatsoever.<\/p>\n

He LIKES lying<\/p>\n

He LAUGHS about it.<\/p>\n

And, he LIVES for it.<\/p>\n

Anyway, I can’t help but hear that song whenever our presidential candidates yap away.<\/p>\n

Like this, for instance:<\/p>\n

“And then you meet me<\/strong>
\n And your whole world changes<\/strong>
\n Because everything I say is everything<\/strong>
\n you’ve ever wanted to hear<\/strong>
\n So you drop all your defenses and<\/strong>
\n you drop all your fears<\/strong>
\n And you trust me completely<\/strong>
\n I’m perfect In every way”<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Reminds me of people fainting at Obama rallies…<\/p>\n

Or, check this one out:<\/p>\n

“I’ll hide behind a smile<\/strong>
\n And understanding eyes<\/strong>
\n And I’ll tell you things that you already know<\/strong>
\n So you can say<\/strong>
\n I really identify with you”<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Ha.<\/p>\n

Romney doesn’t do THAT, does he?<\/p>\n

He feeeeeeels your pain, right?<\/p>\n

What?<\/p>\n

You think I’m out of line? That this is THE most important-est election ever? And, the country’s fate lies (ha) in the balance? (Like *every<\/em>* election… the manipulation the powers-that-be gets away with is astonishing…)<\/p>\n

Alright enough.<\/p>\n

I can see people angrily hitting reply to this email.<\/p>\n

Yes!<\/p>\n

Do it!<\/p>\n

Write me a 5 page email about how WRONG I am!<\/p>\n

Or, I gotta better idea…<\/p>\n

Use that energy to write your LIST an email.<\/p>\n

To, you know, sell<\/em> something.<\/p>\n

Hey, you can be a sheep or a wolf — the sheep put their faith in politicians, while wolves make their own way. (No matter who’s in the White House or the OUThouse.)<\/p>\n

Anyhoo.<\/p>\n

Time to take care of bid’niz.<\/p>\n
