    I agree with almost every one of the things you suggest.

    But what makes us better than them is that we don’t have to lie. There is plenty of real stuff to throw at them. If we lie, it lets them call us liars, and they can more easily ignore the real stuff.

      I get that, but it isn’t really a lie, because he DOES fall asleep, OFTEN. So who cares if it isn’t an actual photo of him doing what he does all the time? It would only be wrong if it was a picture of a behavior that he never does, or is the opposite of the truth.

      I don’t know why they didn’t use an actual photo of him, there are enough of them, but this is close enough to the truth, that it doesn’t bother me.

      Bucko, they make up things their “opposition” says, to then call that a lie. C’mon.

      Keep your principles, they’re fuckin important, but know your enemy, sheesh.
