Crazy. Crazy. Crazy.

The Republican national convention. It's scripted. On lies. On huge deceptions of the truth. On a make-believe fairy tale. Laced with evil intent. I know it. And most people must know it. People can't be so stupid, can they? Liars know they are liars. Of course, maybe that ain't true. If one is a Republican. One builds his/her political life/reality on deception. Even of one's self, I suppose. Republicans have become pathological liars. Many of 'em believe in creationism. That human beings were created merely 10,000 years ago. By god. And Darwin was wrong. No such thing as evolution. And women who have been raped. They never become pregnant. Because women are designed to shut down baby-making if they have unwanted sex. Yes, it's preposterous stuff. Zany. Outlandish. But Republicans are learning to march in lockstep. Devising a new reality. Their reality. And they expect all of us to fall in line. To believe as they believe. All the lies. All the deceptions. And call it truth. Indeed, the inmates want to capture the asylum. Crazy. Crazy. Crazy. --Jim Broede
