\u201cWe do not pay ransom. We didn\u2019t here, and we won\u2019t in the future.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Barack Obama might like to have that one back this morning, to stick a pin in the moving finger that writes. But the finger done writ, and it won\u2019t come back to cancel a single line of the president\u2019s fatuous fib that the United States didn\u2019t pay $400 million to ransom four hostages taken by the president\u2019s friends in Tehran.<\/span><\/p>\n

Perhaps the president can take some solace, thin as it is, in the fact that nobody believed him, anyway.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

'Fatuous fib' is not quite the phrase.  It is a brazen lie from a man who specializes in the brazen lie.  And not just the lie, but every mode of mendacity.<\/span><\/p>\n

A mere picture of the man would suffice to define homo mendax<\/em>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Vote for Hillary and you will get more of the same.  The difference between her and Obama is that she is not a very good liar.  <\/span><\/p>\n

Why is this?  Permit me  a speculation.  Hillary is much older than Obama.  She grew up in a time when it was understood that there is such a thing as truth and that lying is wrong.  So at some level she knows she is doing wrong when she lies.  This dim awareness interferes with the efficacy of her lying.  But Obama is the POMO-prez.  Truth?  What's that?<\/span><\/p>\n

His brand of leftist replaces truth with narrative.  <\/span><\/p>\n
