I refuse to live in a post-truth world. We can argue about policies and their potential outcomes but I refuse to argue about facts.
Earth is not 6,000 years old. I don't have to prove it. You either get it or you don't.
Early humans did not ride dinosaurs like primitive cowboys. The Flintstones is a cartoon, not a documentary. Sorry to disappoint you.
Which brings us to President Trump's Press Secretary Sean Spicer's first official press conference. Spicer said:
1. The pictures showing the difference in the size of the crowd at Trump's inauguration as compared to Obama's were flawed because it was the first time that white flooring had been put down to protect the grass on The Mall.
That's a lie. It was not the first time.
2. Magnetometers were used for the first time at entry points to The Mall, slowing the formation of the crowd.
That's a damned lie. Magnetometers were not used at all.
3. DC Metro rider numbers during Trump's inauguration compared favorably to the numbers for Obama.
The statistics say otherwise. The numbers for the subsequent protest did compare favorably, being the second highest ridership ever after Obama's record-setting first inaugural. The ridership numbers for Trump's inaugural were half that.
Presidential Counselor Kellyanne Conway says that Spicer was presenting 'alternative facts'. Get out your Newspeak dictionaries, boys and girls. Alternative Facts = Lies
(I just love the meme: This is what you look like when gay designers refuse to dress you.)
