I just saw Gates on the news, touting the “fact” that “two-thirds of military personnel have no issue with repealing DADT” (or words to that effect).

I knew it was a lie when I heard him spew it.

Naturally, the newscasters didn’t blink, nor did they question what he said.

This is what is known as THE BIG LIE technique.

Frankly, I've never seen such a blatant example.

The Big Lie (German: Große Lüge) is a propaganda technique. The expression was coined by Adolf Hitler, when he dictated his 1925 book Mein Kampf, for a lie so "colossal" that no one would believe that someone "could have the impudence to distort the truth so infamously."

Gates is a pathological liar, just like his master.

These people will destroy the US military if DODT is repealed.

There will be LOTS of violence, wrongful dishonorable discharges, TONS of cover-ups, more lies and all kinds of senseless destruction if the democrats force open homosexuality into the ranks.
