Today's Stupid Political Column

We get today's stupid political column from Mary Mitchell of the Chicago Sun-Times. Her first sentence is enough reason not to read the rest, but click this link if the first sentence isn't enough stupid for your daily diet.

Say what you will, but former president Jimmy Carter is too old to lie.

So, Ms. Mitchell at what age did Carter stop lying? He is 85 now. Did he stop lying after he turned 80? Did he stop lying in his 70's? BS! A person at 85 has the same character they had at 50 or 60 years of age. If someone is a thief at 50 they don't magically become trustworthy as they age. They may not have the strength or energy to commit crime anymore, but barring an epiphany or major change of heart they are the same as they were when younger.
