David Horowitz, June 2000: “...........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.
Why, for example, if you were one of them, would you tell the truth? If you were serious about your role in humanity’s vanguard, if you had the knowledge (which others did not), that you were certain would lead them to a better world, why would you tell them a truth that they could not “understand” and that would hold them back?
If others could understand your truth, you would not think of yourself as a “vanguard.” You would no longer inhabit the morally charmed world of an elite, whose members alone can see the light and whose mission is to lead the unenlightened towards it. If everybody could see the promised horizon and knew the path to reach it, the future would already have happened and there would be no need for the vanguard of the saints.
That is both the ethical core and psychological heart of what it means to be a part of the left. That is where the gratification comes from. To see yourself as a social redeemer. To feel anointed. In other words: To be progressive is itself the most satisfying narcissism.
That is why it is of little concern to them that their socialist schemes have run aground, burying millions of human beings in their wake. That is why they don’t care that their panaceas have caused more human suffering than all the injustices they have ever challenged. That is why they never learn from their “mistakes.” That is why the continuance of Them is more important than any truth.
If you were active in the so-called “peace” movement or in the radical wing of the civil rights causes, why would you tell the truth? Why would you tell people that no, you weren’t really a “peace activist,” except in the sense that you were against America’s war. Why would you draw attention to the fact that while you called yourselves “peace activists,” you didn’t oppose the Communists’ war, and were gratified when America’s enemies won?
What you were really against was not war at all, but American “imperialism” and American capitalism. What you truly hated was America’s democracy, which you knew to be a “sham” because it was controlled by money in the end. That’s why you wanted to “Bring the Troops Home,” as your slogan said. Because if America’s troops came home, America would lose and the Communists would win. And the progressive future would be one step closer...........”

Even after your caught you must lie.
Obama must start each day with a lie before he gets out of bed. It is like multivitamins.
Let's dismiss this lawless, lying jackal.
There he goes, grubering again!
This reads like a John Semmens satire.
2,700 never read pages of law were truly transparent??? WTF
22,000 new pages of HHS regulations, most of which are written in such an intentional, convoluted style so as to be barely coherent have been foisted upon us.
REPEAL IT, rip it out by the roots.
Roots? Is that raciss?
In June of next year the Supreme Court will rule on whether the written language of the law has precedent over how this administration would like it to be. If they rule against the Administration, then subsidies go away for most of the country (except for 13 states with their own exchanges).
So I read this quote from the president:
“It’s fair to say there is not a provision in the health care law that was not extensively debated and was not fully transparent.”.”
My question is whether this quote can be used at the Supreme Court hearing (March, 2015) on the written language of the bill. It will make the decision VERY EASY for the court.
That would be except for a congress and senate who had to vote on the bill to find out what's in it............
At least the jack wagon lies big.
Obola, the undocumented Indonesian controlled by
the Saudis’ for the Moslem Brotherhood, is EXEMPT
and knows the treasonous EXEMPT Congress has his back.
They ALL belong in prison, then EXILE.
Right?
I have to ask because I'm just too stupid to understand. /s
This lie has been overused. We're not all Grubers.
Then it's fair to say that they knew it was written to only give subsidies for policies purchased through state exchanges.
“I just heard about this,” Obama
Yeah, hard to get through something that dense as his head.
What I remember is Niel Cavuto. He had a reporter camped out side of the closed and guarded door to the senate room where the final bill was drafted in total secrecy.
If there were any news reports, they were lies.
Niel installed a hot line, a red phone for callers to report what was happening and it remained silent.
Lies, Spin! Limbaugh Theorem: narrating the presidency and not governing. Caught in a blatant lie, so...lie some more.
Wow! The audacity of a bull***tter. He wants his fawning media to go back and look at their coverage of the transparency and open debates?
