Lies and the liars that tell them (partially borrowed title)

Is it possible that Americans have so lost all sense of right and wrong, ethics and morality, honesty and decency, that they cannot even tell the difference between a bold face lie for self benefit and an honest mistake. It’s possible that one could forget that the day one went to a war zone a particular individual was or was not there. It’s possible to forget during what year a trip might have been. One might forget that a cute little girl brought flowers to the airport and kissed us, etc, etc, etc. However, a person does not remember being shot at unless it happened, as that is not a forgettable experience. Hence, a person will not—is not—able to remember being shot at when it did not happen, unless the person is in need of serious psychiatric care. The only option left is that the person has lied, lied, lied. So the fact that the media seems to be supporting this lie brings into question all that the media says. If they are willing to claim that the senator’s lies were innocent mistaken recalls, or that she had “misspoken” or “misstated,” should we not than conclude that they are also unethical and immoral liars.
