Professional Lying

By David Glenn Cox

We all know this won’t hurt, the checks in the mail and well you get the point, But those are the mundane lies anyone can come up with one of those. The simple lie the lie of omission but how about the whoppers the ones even the professionals in the trade lawyers and politicians shake their heads and marvel at such audacity.

Some one at the beauru of lies prevarication’s and falsities deserves the golden forked tongue award. “U.S. Household Incomes Rose Last Year” Where this just your run of the mill Bush administration lie I’d let it go but it’s not just a little false or even mainly false it is totally false

Personal income rose in only 8 states out of fifty and the District of Columbia but if you sharpen your pencil enough you can make it fly after all Fox isn’t going to ask for any explanations. Hawaii, Maryland, Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, little Rhode Island and Dead eye Dicks faux home state of Wyoming all gained in personal income. Notice something? These are all small or thinly populated states, would you rather have a dollar for every person in Wyoming or a quarter for every person in California?

North Dakota barely made the list with a 0.1% increase. South Dakota doubled that with a point 0.2%, Rhode Island 1.7% and Maryland 1.8% Wyoming 3.4% and that could be on Dick’s income alone! But where oh where did it go up the most? Are you sure you want to know? You’re not going to like it, Washington D.C. where wages went up a whopping 6.8%! You’re hitting yourselves in the forehead like a Jeopardy contestant saying I should have guessed that!

6.8% in that little tiny district but what of those obscure environs where the hill people live the little state like California – 1.4%, Ohio –10.1%, Pennsylvania –4.7%, Michigan – 12.7%, North Carolina –10.1% and the list goes on and on Georgia – 8.8%, Mississippi – 9.1 %, South Carolina – 8.4% Yet the story from the government and the main stream media is “U.S. Household Incomes Rose Last Year”

The sheer volume of lost dollars by the American worker should prompt us to rename the upcoming holiday weekend as Screw You day! Or perhaps Suckers Memorial Weekend.

In Indiana it amounts to $5000 per household in Illinois $4300 Iowa $ 3200 but income is up .1% in North Dakota! The true decline in personal income or the shifting of income out of the middle class explains the sub prime mortgage woes As there are fewer qualified homebuyers. Globalism has brought the ability to exploit cheap labor from over seas bringing wealth to a few and poverty all around. Gradually destroying the underpinnings of or society. The figures don’t lie but the liars figure real wages were less in 2006 than they were in 1999.

Want a new reason to remove George W. Bush? Incompetence is a legitimate reason! We the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

Does this sound like insuring domestic tranquility in a more perfect union? Or promoting the general warfare? If the fiscal policies of a President show nothing but a detriment to the American populace isn’t it that President’s sworn duty to correct that?

But aside from the wars and the lies and the corruption and the smoke of Bush administration is hidden that the money supply has doubled in six years. Not only has personal income declined but also the value of those reduced dollars has shrunk as well. The world knows it and the bankers know it and the American family knows it but to the Fox news crew and the mainstream media, Good News, “U.S. Household Incomes Rose Last Year.”
