Reality is a b***h

..."How can we be so cavalier about the facts? Perhaps one of the worst things about the “post-modern” age is the pervasive belief that lies are harmless, that in other words the truth doesn’t exist; merely something you create by issuing talking points, faked memos and bogus facts. We are taught it is endlessly malleable and smugly told you can explain away an attack on a US consulate in Benghazi by blaming a video produced in LA.

All the right people believe truth is fake, but interestingly enough the lie never extinguishes the truth. Rather, by pushing against reality, it compresses a spring which sooner or later will give up its energy in an explosive way. Kicking stuff down the road doesn’t make it go away, it simply stores up the junk in the top shelf of the hall closet. One day you open the closet and …

The Obama administration would do well to realize that it isn’t the pathetic GOP they have to worry about, but Reality. "...

Perception is reality. If you spout lies enough times and get the press on board with your deception they will become the new reality.

Interestingly enough, it appears that the truth never extinguishes the lies for the usual conspiracy nuts.

Obama is STILL "from Kenya"; the birth-certificate is STILL a "fake"; the bombing of WTC on 9/11 was "an inside-job"; and Bush STILL didn't lie about the WMDs....(And for some whack-jobs, the Sandy Hook Elementary School shootings were a hoax.)

Another day, another outrage... After 18 hearings the FACTS still haven't changed, and the TeaPublicans are still realizing that no one cares anymore about this except their riled-up base--who stay riled-up because of Obama-Derangement-Syndrome.

Yep, neener-neener. Reality does not matter.

Benghazi! Benghazi!

Yes, and in 2012 only 5-6 people actually witnessed soldiers burning copies of the Quran at Bagram Air Base, but the word spred...

" After five days of protest, 30 people had been killed, including four Americans. Over 200 people had been wounded.[5] International condemnation[6] followed the burning of copies of the Quran, on 22 February 2012, from the library that is used by inmates at the base's detention facility. The protests included domestic riots which caused at least 41 deaths and at least 270 injuries.[3][7]"

And what is YOUR SOURCE that "only 150 people saw" the video? What is your proof? Listening to Team-Teabagger again?

Benghazi! Benghazi!

This is interesting Fred. Apparently the left is so terrified that the voting public will recognize how monumentally incompetent to run anything that they are willing to deflect to how completely callus to American lives and prestige they are.

Speaking of "monumental incompetency", after 18 hearings the TeaPublicans STILL haven't turned up a single FACT that contradicts what they already know. I guess the "voting public" is still confined to the teabagger "base", and it's still not going to swing an election.

(The ObamaCare strategy isn't working either...) Tsk-Tsk... Perhaps it's time for you guys to follow the directions of the keynote speaker at the so-called "Conservative Leadership[??] Conference", that bearded Duck-buster, Phil Robertson, and "get religion." Nothing else is working too good for you.

So, when in doubt:

Benghazi! Benghazi!!

The funny thing about the facts on Benghazi is that the administration kept changing them. Latest? We knew it was terrorists all along but we didn't want them to know we knew. #WTF?
