Reality based legislation
That is what I want from my representatives. Not religious based, not hate based, not fear based....just simply reality based.

2. Here's the reality. You work. They take your money. They enforce
laws that allow you to lose your job. You have no money. They take your things.

That's American reality.

3. Me, too.
But we're going to need reality-based voters to vote in reality-based legislators.

To do that, in turn, we need reality-based education and reality-based news.

In other words, we have to stop people from lying.

I've mentioned that here before but was deluged by those DUers who believe lying is a First Amendment right.

Without the truth, without a commitment to find and preserve what we actually know, we will never get reality-based anything.

4. You are exactly right...
Truth trumps all....and with all of the revisionist history going on nowadays and the blurring of facts we may be screwed!!
