“...the art of denying or evading facts. It doesn’t matter if the subject is small or large. It can be a domestic or foreign policy issue. The modus operandi is the same: don’t give them the facts; they’ve made up their minds.”

Why is this news? The above statement is the definitive definition of Liberalism for as long as the concept has existed. Besides, what the h%$# would anyone do with facts and logic if their every opinion is formed by and expressed through emotional hysteria. The Liberal talent for self-induced states of mindless panic is beyond belief!

“Liberalism is nothing more than the ideological disguise of the will to power of some people who could not themselves be less Liberal.”

But it is the Obama team which in just seven months has perfected the art of denying or evading facts.

I agree. This is not something new. It is the status quo for Chicago and Cook County politicians and has been for nearly a century.

Even the vaunted Chicago Tribune fades in the face of a really top notch lie, plus dinner with the editor and a favor or two.
