True, so true.

The Left lies because they are reprobate, venal, oxygen-wasting human excrement. To be kind.

Leftism in all its forms is entirely rooted in Satanism. Leftists hate freedom, God, and any kind of human decency. They elevate moral perversion above the level of morality.

This country used to be a great CHRISTIAN republic. But over the last 100 years, we’ve been in the grip of “progressives” who want the government to run our families (child labor and child “welfare” laws) and even provide for our children (passing laws that make divorce easy to get and which incentivize women to seek it by offering up the government as a husband/father figure).

Leftists also want to tell business owners what to pay people (minimum wage mandates) and reserve for themselves the right to decide what is and is not a “safe” workplace and/or a “safe” product. It’s amazing that anyone even tries to run a business anymore, given how the deck is stacked against job creators!

And just to make sure all these changes would stick, they kicked God out of the schools. They are pure evil.

The left lies because there’s a bunch of low-information voters who believe those lies.

Does the category, "Low-Information Voter" include Administrators, Faculty and Students at "prestigious Ivy-League universities"?

Does it include the Owners, Editors, Talking-Heads and Reporters of the MSM who spend their entire lives immersed in "information"?

Our culture has come to prize "information" (this is "The Information Age!", after all.) and has forgotten the many differences between Information and Knowledge. The concept of Wisdom has become archaic and is held in derision as being ethnocentric bigotry in this day of Diversity-Above-All-Else!

I think the Left, or most of the hard Left, lies because they, like unrepentant criminals, are wired wrong. Period. Their brains are wired incorrectly inasmuch as they have absolutely ZERO moral compass. So they pretend to have one for their own purposes. It’s transparently phony to any rational, thinking person, but they don’t care... because they have no moral compass.

Interrogating a Liberal is materially indistinguishable from interrogating a lifelong criminal. All you ever get for answers are deceit, lies, dodging, transference of responsibility, etc...

They are exactly the same people... just with different career paths.

The left lies because they will lose if they tell the truth.

“If you like your doctor...”

“If you like your healthcare plan...”

“Health insurance costs will decrease $2,500.00.”

AdNauseum.

There will come a day when they will be called on it.

“Outside are the dogs and the sorcerers and the immoral persons and the murderers and the idolaters, and everyone who loves and practices lying.”

The first truth about leftist missionaries, about believing progressives, is that they are liars. But they are not liars in the ordinary way, which is to say by choice. They are liars by necessity—often without even realizing that they are. Because they also lie to themselves. It is the political lie that gives their cause its life. -David Horowitz, June 2000

No, they lie because they're nuts... they believe it's OK to lie in the name of a greater cause. And that ‘greater cause’ is defined by them.
