RE LYING AND LIARS

 Professor

Very interesting article.

Her reasoning here, is nonsense:

"Ross mentions that under the law, government employees' speech is only protected if they are speaking as private citizens on a matter of public interest.  I might add that federal employees in recent decades have been severely disciplined for circulating articles endorsing or criticizing candidates via email at work.  Such laws open the door, she argues, to legislation or other Congressional action--including warnings, censure, or impeachment--in response to presidential lies.   While she recognizes how unlikely such legislation is in the current climate, she wants us all to start thinking about it."

Your solution, in impeachment provisions is too.

Let's talk, rather, about liberal democratic helter skelter modernism, bleeding over into nihilistic postmodernism, and the resulting death, stone dead death, of the very concept of "objective" (Enlightenment) truth, about anything, required as a necessary predicate for the very idea of lying in the first place.

If truth is relative, what, then, is lying, anyway?

All the best
