If the Republicans don't have an authenticity problem, they ought to. One would think that the raging right-wing white males (and white females) that vote for them ought to stop, look around, and take note as to whether they've been lied to, how often, and by whom.

I used to think that was part of the wisdom of experience and old age, being able to spot liars and lying. Of course I remember my own father frequently commenting that "There's no fool like an old fool."
