First Photos Of US Soldiers In Syria Released

Following the propagandist double-speak gushing forth from the Obama administration over when a "boot on the ground" in Syria is a "boot on the ground," the following photographs via Agence France-Presse confirm US special operation forces in a rural village 40 miles from Raqqa. As The Guardian reports, the Pentagon press secretary, resisted commenting on the photographs and would only describe the US special operations forces’ mission in generic terms, despite the fact that these troops are at the frontline of fighting when President Obama assured America that forces are consistently behind the forward lines.

In April, State Department spokesman John Kirby attempted to change the narrative in a stumbling preposterous way denying President Obama had ever said "no boots on the ground" in Syria...

Government lying has reached an all time high. There is a video at the source showing a State Department spokesman (paid liar) emphatically denying previous statements.

I'm old enough to remember a time when Presidents had a certain amount of shame. They also had enough class and respect for their countrymen to prevent them from lying so openly about everything. All that went out the window with the election of B. J. Blythe III in 1992. Once the politicians found out they could lie and still retain a 50% approval rating (see President Barry Soetoro) it was all over. Apparently you can fool have the people all the time, or at least half the people don't care or don't know or don't care to know.

We are living in a new paradigm. 1984 is not a novel, it has become an instruction manual.

Politicians lie?! *gasp!*

“1984 is not a novel, it has become an instruction manual.”

Imagine 1984 in 2017-2021!

Happy Memorial Day. God Bless our Veterans now put something behind those words Vote Trump.

Our electorate is the problem, people do not care being born in the lap of luxury of the Freedom and Liberty our Veterans have so generously afforded us!

My fellow Citizens just too spoiled me included. Will we have to lose our Republic to wake up? Barry From Honolulu, we warned since 2007 and boy oh boy did this come to fruition! God is still guiding this nation but he will not interfere with our free will. It is up to us to fix this. Yeah 1984 and Any Rand's books too.

The majority of the distruth is on the dem side. If we had a genuine two party system where in theory one would balance the other out, hopefully in favor of the Constitution, we would have little or no lying.

The RINO’s need to start being the opposition party again, if Trump does not succeed, the RINO’s will crawl under the nearest rock and just let Hillary do whatever she wants so they can save their precious DC perks.

Nixon is not my favorite president, but where he deserves respect is he at least stepped down when caught. Clinton and obama are unquestionably the biggest liars ever, and they go unchallenged. It’s just sad and sorry how our nation has devolved, nearing banana republic status.
