Friends,
What? The Republican nominee for president of the United States just said in his acceptance speech at his party’s convention that, among other nonsense, gas prices have doubled since President Obama has taken office. This is among the many things that the partisans have said over the last couple days that are demonstrably false. The fact that these people are spending so much time lying about stuff is really very stunning. These kids can’t win with facts? Well, I guess they can’t win anyway, but they can’t be proud of how they’d spun reality into some weird netherworld that even Peter Jackson wouldn’t touch.
To our suffering friends at the Republican National Convention,
You guys must cry yourselves to sleep with the terror of your terrible nightmare world bearing down. We can help you. There are meds available. They will be affordable for you once the Affordable Care Act is fully implemented. It’s time for us as a nation to eliminate the stigma of mental illness, and we’re here to help you.
Good night, GOP.
