Everything on tv and in the news has 'makeup' on in some form. Either to hide or push a agenda. Having politics as a god corrupts. People on FR have sails, like many others, and change direction with the political winds at the time. There is legion of pols that FR once supported and now hate. It is important to stick to your ideals and beliefs, regardless what political character is the pick of the day.
Maybe said pols tacked to the wind?
