President Barack Obama or his minions have made or soon will be making
representations about the Islamic State, Iraq, Syria and other state and non-state
actors in the Middle East to persuade Congress to enact an Authorization for Use of
Military Force.
A substantial number will be lies. All should be received by Congress and the American
people with a high degree of skepticism.
The White House habitually lies to get us into war. It is an institutional flaw
unaffected by the idiosyncracies of the incumbent. There is a demonstrative White House
lying syndrome. . . .
