I have been mulling this over for over 24 hours now. Not that I had any faith in those people, because I despise them with every fiber of my being. But that they would mouth such words really sums up what we are dealing with.
I will be throwing these words in their faces from now on.

which is pretty much where we've been for the last 3 years. completely disconnected from reality, unconcerned and unburdened with any notion of honesty. pharmaceutical advertisers have more accountability than our top public officials.
