1. Blinking = stress and lying
BLINKING. A person who is lying will blink a lot,as blinking seems to correlate to the amount of mental stress we are under. In a normal conversation where a person is attuned to you, he will blink at roughly the same rate as you, often at moments when you pause in your speech. Be wary of someone who is blinking frantically as they speak with you.

4. The blinking could be related to his being old, and his eyes are dry.
The best way to tell whether he's lying is whether any sound is coming out of his mouth.

10. Give the old fart a break...
It's like those days back when we took a flashlight in the dark and made old time movies with the blinking. This is the way this old fool sees the real world.

He is an IDIOT!! He thinks we are all idiots...and nearly half this country are. We need to send this geezer jack off to the farm. Take his little hockey mom with him if he wants, and his rich bitch beer mama with him too.

12. It drives me nuts when they decry gov't spending
In business, spending money on infrastructure, training, well-being is considered an investment.

Why are Republicans so afraid to invest in America?
