R-epublican I-nspired P-ress, has indeed killed all facts, and buried them very deep. It’s really funny, well, sad-funny, to read the most devoted “con-dumb” comments, or listen to their worshipped sources.
What I think is sad is how people here are sniping away at each other because of it. I am all for Free Expression of opinions, but at times it gets out of hand on here.
What part of E Pluribus Unum don’t you naysayers understand?
E Pluribus Unum – “out of many, one” in other words, ‘many people, one union’. Perhaps we should remind our government of this country’s motto. Seems they are bent on continuing the division. United we stand….divided, we fall.
this is why the source for your “news” is referred to as an entertainment medium. nothing more, nothing less. of course, after watching some of the 3 stooges gop campaign comedy run and its finalist, ‘entertainment’ is a questionable value, here. get over it.
Do you think perhaps that today’s comic is not about politics, but about sociology? The ‘facts’ were murdered, not by spin artists inventing truth, but by the device in the woman’s hand and by the lemmings’ acceptance of Wikipedia as the repository of knowledge and Google as the guide to enlightenment.
Yup. The truth is dead. I read it on the Internet.
and I am a product of Immigrants: The Culps, four Mennonite brothers who came & settled near Pittsburgh to avoid religious prosecution…. my maternal grandfather, one of many "Mason"s from Britain, from a line of Organ players in a church in York…. and my paternal grandparents, both of whom came from a small German settlement in (what is now) Romania. All of them learned English when they arrived here, and all of them died here. —and yes, I can PROVE that, thanks to the efforts of my mother and her sister & her (late) first cousin, who bothered to visit grave sites, dig through census after census, as well as other records both on and offline.I myself was encouraged by both parents to do my own research, thanks to their foresight to buy a set of encyclopedias in the year I was born!
I don’t think facts are dead; I think they’re merely misplaced by all the hype that is floating around the Internet.

Facts dies some time ago. That headstone is way too clean. It should be covered in weeds and ivy by now.
