Politicians Lie--How We Know For Sure

Composed in Green Bay, Wisconsin--

Before elections, they say, "I'm not running."  Then, they run.

During their campaigns, they say, "I'm not quitting."  Then, they quit.

John_edwards In the last ten days, John Edwards, Fred Thompson and Mitt Romney terminated their bids for the Presidency after insisting they were in it to win.  More politicos will do the same as we near the primaries.

Is it any wonder the citizenry doesn't trust politicians?

The title character on my favorite TV show is Dr. Gregory House.  Dr. House often remind us, "Everyone lies."  If this is true, maybe we should be more forgiving of politicians.

What do you think?  Does everyone lie?

You're so right, Chad. Suze Orman makes a career of stressing how often we lie to ourselves about money. By the way, I love your blog at www.thegmblog.com. Great for sales people using Goldmine.

... Everyone lies, often to ourselves.
