What's really lame, of course, is the continuted repetition of
falsehoods, presumably on the assumption that repeating a lie often
enough somehow makes it the truth.

The N.D.P. government has stolen nothing from charities or anyone
else, of course.  In fact there is no evidence that  N.D. P. party has
ever stolen anything.  Certain members of the N.D.P. have indeed
stolen, and should and will I hope be properly punished.

When you have no basis for criticism, it seems the technique is simply
to make up a few lies and keep repeating them.  Just how this is
supposed to contribute to reasoned political discourse or rational
thinking is beyond me.
