The Double O License To Lie

clipped from fallbackbelmont.blogspot.com It was a virtuoso performance, all the more impressive because the arguments advanced were fundamentally wrong. Or rather they were mixtures of right and wrong that ultimately led to flawed conclusions. Tell me about it. I noticed long ago that a leftist mistakes winning an argument with solving a problem. They will use a half fact and twist it out of all recognition and, when called on it, simply go on arguing--move on to another point as if their "expert" credibility had not been affected. I'd say, "How you gonna solve the problem you care so much about if your 'facts' are screwed up?" I believe this habit of mind starts when they are 14 arguing with the other pimply nerds. By the time they are 24 and finished their law degree it's taken over what passes for their minds. Once they are "Credentialed" it's like they have a double O license to lie--just don't be too obvious about it.
