   Never trust what Democrats or Marxists tell you. Make them prove it with   
   actual verifiable facts and science. And if you didn't find the lie in   
   what the Democrat-Marxists told you then you didn't dig deep enough. The   
   *Gruber Doctrine* is the Marxist plan that says it's "to the Democrats   
   advantage to have a lack of transparency and then lie about everything".
