Aside:
We sometimes amuse ourselves by watching Family Feud. (Indeed, the cable box is set to record “all new episodes.”) We enjoy the wordplay, the spontaneity, and the humor, though, I must admit, sometimes the double entendres are just a bit too double (or maybe not double enough).
Last night, we watched an episode in which one of the questions was something like, “Who blames you for their mistakes.” The answers were 1) boss, 2) spouse, 3) siblings, and 4) politicians.
But, one is constrained to observe, a mistake is not the same thing as a lie.
And a political party that relies on lies and lying liars is not just “making mistakes.”
It is willfully dealing in deception and promulgating perfidy.
And it forfeits our trust.
