The fact of lying is not what concerns me; it's the lack of embarrasment at lying; it's the use of self understood lying to make points. The political culture no longer looks askance at such. That's my concern.

Caro's books on LBJ are interesting in this regard. To be caught, publicly, in a lie was deep trouble. Not so today.
