    "Eff-Double-you"

    aka

    "False Witness"

    “Thou shalt not bear false witness” forbids: “1. Speaking falsely in any matter, lying, equivocating, and any way devising and designing to deceive our neighbor. ... Speaking unjustly against our neighbor, to the prejudice of his reputation; and (which involves the guilty of both).
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thou_s..._thy_neighbour

    “You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor” is the ninth of the Ten Commandments that Moses brought back with him from his encounter with God ...

    Scripture says, A man who bears false witness against his neighbor is like a war club, or a sword, or a sharp arrow. (Proverbs ...


    Are we in an era of grand hypocritical "False Witnessing"?

    RINO is the term for that rare Republican who puts country above party.

    Right wing = lie, lie, and lie some more.

    But when a political party talks like drunk cartoon characters ... it's a new paradigm

    You misspelled "Republicons", who now worship the King of Lies. An easy transition, since they've been lying to everyone, including themselves, for decades.
    We're in dire need of an honest and rational political party.
