Ray, speaking of blatant lies, if you get a chance, the Krugman "Great Unraveling" is a good read on the political calculus of the lies of Bushistas. Even tho' he's an economist, he poses insightful political questions, one of which derives from a young Kissinger's PhD thesis: "what are the limits, how far are they willing to go?". Dr. K was talking about European revolutionaries, who were dismissed because no one thought they would lie as blatantly as they did, or be as vicious.

We'll unfortunately see how far they're willing to go, in this election cycle. I'm fascinated, in the same way one might watch an impending trainwreck.
