State Supreme Court Approves Lying

Local News | Split court says candidates can lie | Seattle Times Newspaper

I know I've been fighting a losing battle when I've been teaching my 10-year old to always tell the truth, be honest, don't lie. At some point children learn that it does not pay to be honest --- winning pays! We must win at all costs, our culture tells us. Now even the State Supreme Court has approve lying for politicians: it is not the government's business to practice censorship - we cannot infringe freedom of speech in any way, even if it means letting liars get away with their malicious deceit and falsehood.
