In 1963 it was The Spy Who Came In From the Cold. Now it's The Delicate Truth. The first told us watch out. And the last? It's too late, the jig is up. There was some great stuff in between.<br /><br />I think Gore Vidal said something to the effect that in fiction there was more truth than nonfiction. Maybe that's why so many historians loved to read his historical fiction.<br /><br />Then there's linda Greenhouse's article of the 27'th in the NYT, Polar Vision.

Edgar Hoover- no wait - I mean John Brennan, or anyone from the Senate Intelligence Committee talking about Terrorism™. It’s as if there is a contest within the Obama Administration as to which agency or department can lie the most to the greatest audience.<br /><br />Or maybe it’s just always Opposite Day in this administration. Maybe the administration is captured in some Opposite Day vortex- in perpetuity like Bill Murray in Ground Hog Day.<br /><br />Anyway, here are a couple of lies that have some serious consequences.

However, what I am concerned about is the wide split between his speeches and public communication accompanied by the totally different activities he supports or encourages behind the curtains. And the real question is whether he knows the difference and does it for his ego and snug future or does not recognize the differences involved and is basically lying.<br />I had a relative who had a habit of mixing truth with false comments in order to inflate her ego and harm the characters of others. When I asked another close family member whether or not she knew whether her relative was aware that her false comments were deliberate lies, this family member told me that in all the years she knew her she had never figured that out. This difference could then indeed involve mental illness.Pearlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-974773076690597683.post-60995510282744786962014-05-30T09:30:04.636-04:002014-05-30T09:30:04.636-04:00@Anne,

But it would explain a lot. As in, those sudden unexplained changes in accent and cadence depending on the audience. G-droppin' and stammerin' for the regular folk, Ivy League professorial for the journos and other group-thinkers.

It's all because of effects from concussions he experienced from playing football! <br /><br />Considering that Glenn Greenwald's Grand Finale is going to involve revealing the names of American citizens targeted for spying, I bet Obama is definitely feeling a concussion headache coming on. <br /><br />Obama met with Hillary this week off schedule and privately at the White House. If she's on that list, I'm sure Obama would prefer to tell her himself along with a convenient explanation all worked out in advance. His old Tony Rezko "boneheaded" defense will be reworked - "Hilly, it must be from the concussion!" <br /><br />We know how much Obama trusts powerful women like Angela Merkel and Dilma Roussef and would never have their personal cell phones monitored - except for National Security reasons. I'll refrain from psychoanalyzing a possible trust issue with women in this case. After all, Hillary didn't abandon him. (Oops!) <br /><br />The bottom line is that if Obama can't blame the Republicans, and won't blame the Oligarchs, there's always the Concussion Defense. I think David Barron has already started working on it.annenigmanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-974773076690597683.post-38576821696401880542014-05-29T11:34:49.719-04:002014-05-29T11:34:49.719-04:00I figured you'd latch on to that one.
