The systemic, pathological lying of the Obama Administration shouldn’t be any great surprise by now, at least to Freepers. Let us remember Aleksandr I. Solzhenitsyn’s book “The Gulag Archipelago” and how things worked under Stalin, the New York Time's most beloved political leftist leader EVAH!

An example would be that Dear Leader would order that a certain amount of lumber to be produced. So, the camp commanders would crack the whips, and the political prisoners would be driven to accomplish impossible demands. What would the camp commanders do if the quotas weren't met? They would LIE! They would report that they had achieved their quotas. Then they would ship the lumber and the people who shipped the lumber would agree with the numbers of the camp commanders. The people who received the lumber would also agree with the numbers. NOBODY would DARE report the truth, lest they also become a camp prisoner.

THE WHOLE DAMNED SYSTEM RAN ON LIES! Of course, the complicit media of Stalin’s era cheerfully reported the lies as truth, and no attempt was made to verify the numbers. Times change, leftists don’t. Different nation, different time, but leftist leaders lie, and leftist media support the lies. Welcome to Gulag America comrade.

So true. “The Ends justify The Means (and the “numbers”)”
