Take a walk, smell the roses. Any topic is fine, save people bashing.

If you repeat a lie enough times, does it become the truth?

Have you seen this lie from the reight?





A guy I know went for this hook, line & sinker and posted it on Facebook.
The trouble is, That so called quote appears NOWHERE in his book.
Here is the ACTUAL quote from "The Audacity of Hope"
"Of course, not all my conversations in immigrant communities follow this easy pattern. In ...the wake of 9/11, my meetings with Arab and Pakistani Americans, for example, have a more urgent quality, for the stories of detentions and FBI questioning and hard stares from neighbors have shaken their sense of security and belonging. They have been reminded that the history of immigration in this country has a dark underbelly; they need specific assurances that their citizenship really means something, that America has learned the right lessons from the Japanese internments during World War II, and that I will stand with them should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.".
