"People of the Lie"
by Roger Ringer
"These professional liars fully understand that when you tell The Big Lie, you can't be defensive when the facts threaten to expose you. On the contrary, you have to be prepared to feign indignation and immediately go on the offensive."
" 'The Party seeks power entirely for its own sake. We are not interested in the good of others; we are interested solely in power. … We know that no one ever seizes power with the intention of relinquishing it. Power is not a means; it is an end. … The object of power is power.' "
"Do you really believe the teller of The Big Lie is going to respond to your presentation of the facts by saying, 'Gee, I hadn't really thought about it that way before. I guess I was wrong.' Forget it. People of the Lie thrive on telling The Big Lie; it's what they live for."
Personal Note:.. Okay, but what's to be done? How is ambition killed in the hearts of the ambitious?

Oh, I thought this was a lamentation directed at the self-blinded hubris of the GOP. Sure seems like it would apply to people who have *been* in power lately -- and that, mom2, is not the Democratic Party or any stripe of liberal.
