- When respecting the human value of our precious military forces is labeled as being anti-military.

- When global warming and melting Arctic icecaps is labeled as fantasy.
- When declaring having rejected a federally funded construction project. but not declaring that the federal funds for that project were received is hailed as a model of leadership and fiscal responsibility.
- When having only three percent of the world’s oil reserves, but using fully twenty percent of its daily production is pitched as the means to oil independence. Well, that’s just silly, now isn’t it?
