80 year old shares tip to untroubled, wrinkle-free life.

Recently, I was privileged to meet a very wise and peaceful person, Confucius Smith. Although he was 80 years old, he had no worry lines on his face. I asked him why this was, and he said his peace came from the fact that he has not seriously questioned his beliefs sixty five years. He went through one questioning phase in his teens, but at age fifteen he arrived at an ideology that he was content with, and hasn't had to change it in the rest of his long life, nor has he even had to consider changing it. 

I asked him how this was, since many people find themselves challenged and doubting their own beliefs on a regular basis.

Mr. Confucius Smith was very happy to share a few tips on maintaining inner peace.

To maintain the inner peace which comes from security in firmly held convictions, first come up with some convictions, and then be sure to always question the logic and facts of those who disagree with your convictions. If the person stating facts and arguments agrees with you, then you already know that their logic and facts must be sound, and you need not waste time studying their arguments.

On the other hand, if the arguer is against your convictions, and the facts they bring up disturb your sense of peace, then you can easily study their arguments and find some evidence against them. Google has made this even easier in recent years. And once you disprove a claim once, you need never do it again, just remember the phrase 'i already studied that and it's not a good argument'. Mr. Smith personally lives by this phrase, and says "by the time you're as old as me, if you can remeber that sentence, you'll be immune to any new arguments and can float through life on a cushion of superiority and bliss."

After quickly discounting anything that claims to be evidence against your beliefs, you can rest safely, confident in the knowledge that You are still right and The Others are as they have always been - either stupid or liars. 

If you do not think Mr. Smith methods are the very best, then you might as well keep it to yourself, because he already has several articles and quotes that support him. 

 Mr. Smith folds his hands humbly and recommends - "My therapist says this is great stuff"

Why you should vote for Blanche Lincoln - a guest post by Libby Roosevelt

I would like to thank Truer Lies for the opportunity to write a guest post.
I am writing to support Blanch Lincoln; she is the PERFECT candidate for every Arkansan!
With many candidates, you have trouble deciding who to vote for.

The three other candidates - John Boozman, Trevor Drown, and John Gray, all have fairly clear platforms and solid ideologies. If you're one of the few voters whose principles align neatly with either a straight up republican, an ultraconservative, or Green party candidate, then by all means vote for one of them.

But odds are, none of those three candidates and their ideoligies will be a perfect match with your principles.

You need a candidate whose principles don't conflict with your own.

You need Blanch Lincoln, who is the most flexible candidate in the state! Actually, laboratory studies have shown that she has NO principles! She's the perfect politician because her principles won't clash with yours. Blanch Lincoln can flex with the times and keep Arkansas up-to-date in National Politics. When Democrats across the nation call for Health Care reform, Lincoln didn't let Arkansans hold back Progress! No sir, she helped push that wonderful bill through, and she let us know about it, that she "cast the deciding vote". No dishonesty in that woman, and I appreciate from the depths of my soul how she kept Arkansans informed on her decision.
But later, when Arkansans let Lincoln know they didn't WANT Obama's healthcare and they didn't like Obama, well she wasn't prideful and unyeilding, she was instead understanding and placating, saying that "she was actually only one vote of many", and that she didn't support Obama in everything.

Such a flexible, understanding woman. If Arkansans speak up loudly and angrily enough, then Blanch Lincoln will always listen and change her stories to make us feel better and to fit with our principles.

Blanch Lincoln will gladly tell you whatever you want to hear!
How can you not love a candidate like that?

if you feel your blood pressure rising when you read our blog

then go pop a couple nitro, and then you probably need to go read this article instead.

And now that that most important piece of business is taken care of, i would like to introduce our staff writers.
Our staff, once we can gather it all together, will hail from widely varying political and religious idealogies, but most of our regulars will live right here in Arkansas.
Our first staff members are Earl Grey and Susan B. Satira.
Earl Grey is a full time blogger and grassroots organizer who uses our little blog as a venue to find a wider audience for his fascinating thoughts.
Susan Satira is our enthusiastic reporter, and sometimes a traveling news correspondent.

Welcome to our team, Mr. Grey and Mrs. Satira.


The staff members all take themselves very seriously, but the blog administrators here at Truer Lies don't take much seriously.

And that's the truth.
