To tell a lie…

EVENTUALLY, REALIZATION MUST SETTLE IN.

The Left leaves no option of dealing with them as we would like, in a fair, rational, back-and-forth according to rules of play, which we prefer, believing we can win on the merits, and will stand corrected if proven wrong.

No, to counter the risk of losing on the merits, the Left will, characteristically, deny any truth not supportive of their schemes.

Humanity, at large, can do this, of course; not just the Left. The only way to fight back, is to do the same thing, it sometimes feels. At present, however, the Left is the major exponent of this characteristic.

When this characteristic of the Left settles in, our strategy in dealing with it must change, unless we wish to be confounded by lies.

We shouldn’t be confounded by lies that we understand. We should change strategy.

. . . . .

Lies can have merit. When judgement indicates that any wrongs have been corrected, and lessons learned, and the matter is personal, then getting others to horn out, by way of lying to them, that might be appropriate. Things won’t be helped by being honest. It’s over. Time passes.

BEARING FALSE WITNESS against others is far more malicious than the convenience of a mere lie, however; wouldn’t you agree..?

Take Bill Clinton. His denials of sexual relations were mere lies. A wall of privacy was erected on such personal matters about the married president with a young daughter, exploiting … Well. You remember.

What became damning was how these mere, personal lies required Hillary to bear false witness against many others, and have that reported on national news programs.

Effective lies are secret lies.

Once public, they are excuses.
