I have heard some really interesting stories here in Michigan over the years. I'm not one to bloviate about things. Just telling what I see and hear.

A high school friend of mine was always stretching the story beyond the common sense.
He recently stated he bought 10 acres in the U.P. on a swamp that that was loaded with beaver.
He then went and purchased $400 worth of traps from F&T and was going off to catch fur.
To the best of memory his friend, he can't ever remember him trapping anything more than muskrats.
Plus he has had two heart operations! Taking an once of salt with all that.

Now there's the Politician that claims to have been a Command Sargeant Major(E9), when by record he was only a Master Sargeant (E8).
And continues to brag about having gone to combat with his rifle......!

Then there's the politician who claimed to be part American Indian to further her education and political gains.
DNA tested and not one bit is she Native American.

I just think that its best to set a record straight when its heard and you know its BS.
We seem to let it just pass anymore as to, "its ok" to lie!
Where would George Washington be if he lied like some of these people?

I spent two years in the Army as an engineer/heavy equipment operator. Doing my job and getting out..
One year overseas in a combat zone like so many others. I didn't run for office, or want to.
There is a number of my friends that spent time in the military and don't brag and go on. Some have passed on.

Alright I've spouted off enough for now.

A lot of BS these days. And if all depends on who’s BS it is whether it gets called out or not.

I've got a cousin that people always said if he tells you it's raining out you better look out the window.

All this crap picked up momentum when society detwrmined that it was ok to have your own 'truths'. You are special. You can be a Disney princess. You know what your ancestors went through and you're excused from your actions. If you believe you're a cat or a 'they/them' then everyone has to understand. 'TRUTH' has been twisted and mangeled.

what is insane is to expect to just be able to say such things when there is evidence that contradicts

some how a little stretch on the size of a fish turned into a blanket justification to outright lie. with no expectation of being checked or called out on it.


America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

Telling the differance between a liar and BS


There is no difference between lies and BS. It all comes out of the mouths of liars.

I can't stand a liar.


Eh...wot?

BS is only repeated once(the speaker really doesn't want you to believe the story), a liar repeats the story might even add to it a lie is hard to keep straight unlike the truth.

It's easy to tell a lying person that is running for office. Their lips are moving.

It’s amazing the once respected people in the MSM that sold their souls to keep their jobs today many acted like they had a brain in the past now they follow the narratives they are given with vigor.


Was born in a Big City Will die in the Country OK with that!

Trust no one, see for yourself.
Keep some salt in your pocket.
Take a grain of it with everything you hear.

Try to be trusting, but beware. Its not as commonplace as it used to be.

Scruples and morals are not prevalent now. (in the general society) Home is still where the heart is.

The non native American, non black liar running for office did get to where she is by using her mouth, but it wasn't from the words she has spoken.

I can tell you one thing most people don't like the truth. On earth liar's seem to get away with it and are liked better than us that tell the truth.

Covid was never about a virus
Climate is not about saving the planet
Ukraine is not about defending its sovereignty
Mass immigration isn't about helping those in need

It's about wealth redistribution, depopulation and population replacement

Everything they tell us is a lie

The Walz lie is nothing new. It was brought up when he was running for Governor, but democrats didn't care and voted for him anyway. I expect it will be the same thing this time around.

We had a preacher in our association. When he was born people would tell his mother he was a pretty baby. She said she knew they was lying because he was the ugliest baby she ever seen!
