Lies Are Easier to Handle than the Truth

I found this a few days ago when clicking around, its satirical since its on a site called "The Blog of the Attorney General", but, I agree with the point being made about embracing lies since facts and the truth may be too... downing? disheartening? to accept. I agree with that, since its something that I find entertaining to notice when I look and read around. Blue pill, or red pill?.

Liberals in general believe that there is an objective truth, consisting of facts. The Party knows better. The Party knows that, for most people, truth is what we tell them, through the Party-controlled media and the trickle-down words over office coolers of the official Party commissars such as Bill O'Reilly, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, etc., soothing lies that they want to believe, and thus do. As long as the Democrats maintain allegience to little things like "truth" and "facts", they cannot win. Lies will always win over truth, because lies are what we really, in our heart of hearts, want to hear. We WANT to hear that we went into Iraq for righteous reasons and are winning. We WANT to hear that opponents of that Iraq policy are un-American. We WANT those cool, soothing lies. Until the Democrats realize that they are not running against a candidate, they are running against an alternative reality that we Republicans carefully present to the people, they cannot win.
