Here's what the Buddha has to say to Romney and

Lyin' Ryan about their campaign.

Daily Words of the Buddha for September 10, 2012

Sabhaggato vÄ parisaggato vÄ
ekassa veko na musÄ bhaá¹‡eyya.
Na bhÄá¹‡aye bhaá¹‡ataá¹ƒ nÄnujaÃ±Ã±Ä.
Sabbaá¹ƒ abhÅ«taá¹ƒ parivajjayeyya.

Having entered a royal court or a company of people
one should not speak lies.
One should not speak lies (oneself) nor incite others to do so.
One should completely avoid falsehood.

Namaste
