John Eidsmoe: Proof that Figures Don't Lie, but...You Know the Rest

 

When John Eidsmoe puts his name on a byline in 1812 News, he invariably uses the signature "Col. John Eidsmoe." That would be fine if he were one, but he's not.

Eidsmoe is retired from the U.S. Air Force. Somehow he always forgets to add that (Ret.) to his signature. Yet, it's even worse. Eidsmoe was never a Colonel. When he retired from the military, he was a Lt. Colonel. 

One would think that his juris doctor would be more important when he's pontificating on legal issues, but he leaves it off his byline, only mentioning that little fact in his bio underneath. In fact, Eidsmoe works for Roy Moore's Foundation for Moral Law. You can fuss all you want about Donald Trump selling Bibles, but Roy not only autographed Bibles for his adoring fans, he "copyrighted" the Ten Commandments.

Eidsmoe likes to use the term "pre-born." We're not sure why; it was coined in 1962 and popularized by the first Dune movie. Just stop it!

Over 50% of fertilized eggs are never implanted. Of those which are, many still die. Not every fetus is pre-born. We've had many friends who've been told they were on track to have a healthy baby...until the fetus suddenly died. We have one such friend who can't believe the ignorance of people who use this odd term. We doubt that Eidsmoe cares whom he hurts. He's a bit like the rapper who's been told to dumb it down. 

Lies? Why, he never meant to lie. He's just misunderstood. Yes, misunderstood and perilously close to being the poster boy for White Nationalism...something we'll address another day.
