Greetings and Salutations to each of you.
I am sure you have heard of the 7.0 earthquake that struke the nation of Haiti recently. At this times countries from around the world have begun to pour its resources to help this nation in crisis. Food, medicine, money, military, humanitarians, doctors, and etc. are either on site or on the way to help the Haitian people. Barack Obama, President of the United States of America has committed $100 million, along with a "full court press" to assist in this tragedy. It is expected that around 5,500 service men and women from the national guard and marines will converge on Haiti to lend helping hands to find the trapped, wounded, and dead.
The media coverage that dominated the news cycle has been CNN with their around the clock coverage. By now all networks are on location reporting the conditions that are present. However, news commentators are not the only ones who have opinions on the matter. Recently Pat, Robertson long time evangelical had this to say about the tragedy:
And then comes Rush Limbaugh:
Truly these words sparked and outrage in both the religious, and political communities. First with the American Ambassador responding with these words and a history lesson for Pat Robertson:
Secondly, Steve Olbermann adds this slam to comments made by Rush Limbaugh and Pat Robertson
Is Pat Robertson right? What about Limbaugh? Was the defense by the Ambassador and Olbermann warrented? Surely this is not a time for division but a time for all people to come together and help those in need. We should leave our political posturing for peace time better yet, drop it all together. What are your thoughts; comments are welcomed.

All I have is one line
One line to pierce your heart
One line to capture your soul
I despise the day I met you
I cherish our first kiss
I melt everytime you walk in a room
I quiver at the sound of your name
Never speak your name in my presence again
The neighbors know my name
You are like chasing a waterfall
Dazzle me with your beauty
Engulf me in your intellect
I've got one line to catch you
One line to break you
One line to love you
One line to hate you
The pain of having you
Is morphine to my wounded soul
I do not understand
Your every word is my command
I've got one line to love with
One line to hate with
One line to pierce your heart
One line to capture your soul
I despise the day I met you
I cherish our first kiss
I melt everytime you walk in a room
I quiver at the sound of your name
Never speak your name in my presence again
The neighbors know my name
You are like chasing a waterfall
Dazzle me with your beauty
Engulf me in your intellect
I've got one line to catch you
One line to break you
One line to love you
One line to hate you
The pain of having you
Is morphine to my wounded soul
I do not understand
Your every word is my command
I've got one line to love with
One line to hate with
After a great weekend in Atlanta, GA to celebrate the beginning of a new year with some close friends, I became engulfed in a conversation about lying. The more we discussed the more varied the points of view. So as I began to research the different terminology that we use for liars, I thought why not share. I am curious to know what others think "the root of lying" comes from.
There has to be a beginning. Is it learned? Genetic?
So to see if any "experts"{sarcasm} have coined terminology:
"The Habitual Liar"
The Habitual Liar continuously, and consciously lies about anything and everything and does so in a manipulative form.
"The Pathological Liar"
The Pathological Liar lies by fabricating grand scenarios about realistic events that they really don't know that they are lying. It happens and they don't understand the difference between fantasy and reality.
'The Congenital Liar"
The Congenital Liar really does have a genetic disorder.
Needless to say, we never found the root of lying, but it makes for a great dinner conversation or roundtable withfriends. Spark up the conversation and let me know what you discover.
