HEADLINES: RAPE and FACT-CHECKING



Controversy Over Rape, Abortion Hurts GOP.

Huh... nothing compared to how it hurts women.
I suppose it's all in your priorities.



"We're Not Going to Let Our Campaign Be Dictated by Fact-Checkers"
                                                                        Neil Newhouse, Romney pollster


Damn right!  We don't want to know the truth, we don't want to know who lies to us, who plays fast and loose with reality!

Right?

Heavens forbid, we should check facts ourselves, or face the fact that in a campaign season, everyone lies, and we believe who we want to believe.

So, disdain the journalist who does his/her job, sneer at the 'fact-checker' who questions your campaign's 'narrative,' its convenient and expedient versions of Truth. It's not as if it's relevant or anything.
