Lies, Damn Lies and the Liars that tell them!

There are so many ways that politicians lie. The latest one is so blatant that once again I feel the need to write an article showing the real numbers behind the lies. This time, it is President Obama that is going to seek a new alternative minimum tax rate to make sure that millionaires pay a tax rate that is higher than the tax rate that the middle-class pays. The initial problem is that it is a tremendous lie that people making an income greater than $1 million dollars do not pay a higher tax rate than the middle class.

The HPV Vaccine: Some facts everyone should know

As the political season gets more animated, I have decided that I will throw some articles that are only involved in politics when I see the need. Vaccines are one topic that is in dire need of some discussion. So when the topic reared it’s ugly head recently, I decided that I would take my skeptic banner and enter a slightly different forum.

The main issue that has arisen is that Michele Bachmann has decided to attack the HPV vaccine. She is doing so as a purely political ploy against Rick Perry because he is leading in the polls. The problem is that what she in particular has said, is wrong on many levels.
