The idea that people on the right lie more than people on the left is just as idiotic as the idea that people on the left lie more than people on the right. Of all those people, of course, none lie more than Democrats and Republicans.

Don't forget that human women, in addition to their long lifespans, have a unique period of infertility near the end of their lives. Since pregnancy, birth, and nursing are the main strains on the female (whose caloric needs, as you know, form the limits on the size of the animal), this post-menopause is one major contributor to the longer life of the human mammal.
Inception was a turgid, boring, badly in need of editing, obvious POS with some interesting action sequences (give you the zero-g hall fight was innovative but about a third of it would have been fine). And was that final shot supposed to be a surprise or was it a huge FU to the people who sat through to the end (I saw that coming over two hours prior)?
This is a Chris Nolan movie. Of course, it would end like that. See Prestige for a recent example. It's an old and worn-out trick, but still works on the masses just fine. ZOMG! Life is filled with ambiguities! That made me think!
Anyway, I am sure most of Inception's novelty was covered in Star Trek: TNG with lower budgets.
@14, you obviously are unaware of U.S. history in its entirety. Liberals tend to be more honest than conservatives. Democrats have never been more honest than Republicans. But, then again, Democrats have never really been liberals, so much as they've been merely slightly less conservative than Republicans.
