Indeed. I was amazed today at the total denial of the people I work with. Veteran developers and PhDs. Genuinely smart people who have actually *intelligently* defended outright socialism!
Even when they are forced to acknowledge the lies - with great effort - they still hold on and *justify* them with excuses like "this has nothing to do with the issues, it's just a republican smoke-screen tactic. I guess it's just my idealism being rattled but it's just plain disturbing... And I'm not even a Republican - nobody gets my vote until they earn it by being honest, trustworthy, and true to the constitution.
