I use the example of the incessant lies of Rove, Bush, Cheney, et al,
because that was the first time I saw the practice in such blatant
disregard of any dissenting information. I found the justification for
the Iraq Invasion to be the most egregious example of repeating lies
ad nauseam.
I read that there are still people who believe that Sadaam Hussein had
weapons of mass destruction, that he was ready to strike us with
atomic weaponry, that he was behind the planes flying into the twin
towers.
Yes, it does matter who is repeating lies. When the president and the
vice president are repeating lies to justify the invasion of a
sovereign country, knowing full well the enormous human and economic
costs and knowing that wars always bring unintended consequences,
well, yes, it damn well matters.
