There was a quote from a futuristic novel that said something like, "tell a lie 71,000 times and it becomes true.

This is the process at work here, and it is right out of Stalin's play book for obtaining power over political enemies.

The trouble is, that republicans value the truth too much to do the same to them. I wonder sometimes whether we can fend these maniacs off in the long run, or if we will have to take it to the streets.

I believe you're referencing "Brave New World" by Huxley. In it he had a character state that after so many repititions (somewhere around 68-70k) something would become true.
