    The state of my world

    This link is to an actual article about one of our actual representatives out here in a great state:

    http://www.boiseweekly.com/gyrobase/...d=oid%3A310179

    Of course, it's crap, as noted here:

    http://www.snopes.com/language/document/commrule.asp

    The scary thing is that he took some viral crap and inserted himself into it by stating it in the first person. Therefore, he knew he was lying, and therefore knew his information was false, whether or not he believed the original viral info. That elevates his actions from stupid to Evil. Instilling a brand of morality through deliberate deception has only a few equals in history, and none of them are flattering.

    I think you'll find politicians do that all the time in order to lend credibility to their argument. He certainly does, and so didn't think twice about doing it again. They just don't always do it so obviously.
    I use VB 6, VB.Net 2003 and Office 2010



    Code:
    Excel Graphing | Excel Timer | Excel Tips and Tricks | Add controls in Office | Data tables in Excel | Gaussian random number distribution (VB6/VBA,VB.Net) | Coordinates, Vectors and 3D volumes
