How Many Ways Do You Say Liar, Hillary?

In his 1978 paperback titled Word Power Made Easy, author Norman Lewis devotes an entire chapter to the number of words used to describe lying. Thus, "it was the famous Greek philosopher and cynic Diogenes who went around the streets of Athens, lantern in hand, looking for an honest person. This was over two thousand years ago, but I presume that Diogenes would have as little success in his search today." Indeed, some have theorized "that language must have been invented for the sole purpose of deception."

In reviewing the chapter, it is hard not to make the connections about Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama.

As notorious liars, it is clear that "everybody knows [Obama's and Clinton's] propensity for avoiding facts. [They] have built so solid and unsavory a reputation that only a stranger is likely to be misled -- and then, not for long." Which is why the Millenials of today need to be exposed to the "liar who lies about her lies." And they need to be reminded of the lie told over thirty times by Obama that they could keep their doctor and their premiums would decrease under Obamacare. Hardly -- as evidenced by the weekly tally (at Apothecary) of the failures of Obamacare across the country. And Hillary wants to continue in the same vein -- thus cementing the complete destruction of the American health care system.

Hillary and Bill. One’s a born liar, the other’s convicted.

All true, but it seems that not many American voters seem to care. Lies and deception have become an integral part of the political scene.

If you have to get a court order for her to tell the truth then she’s lying.

Why lying works:

The natural disposition is always to believe. It is acquired wisdom and experience only that teach incredulity, and they very seldom teach it enough. The wisest and most cautious of us all frequently gives credit to stories which he himself is afterwards both ashamed and astonished that he could possibly think of believing. - Adam Smith, Theory of Moral Sentiments (1759)

“The natural disposition . . . to believe” derives from our innate curiosity - we want to know stuff. All lies tell us stuff we didn’t know before (naturally enough, because they aren’t true).

[Kaslin]

Actually they’re both born liars. All democRats are.
