56. Benjamin Ginsberg reminds us that in the United States as in many other countries, lying has been a common political practice. Democrats and Republicans lie frequently, distorting the reality and misleading the public. President Kennedy lied about the United States not intervening in Cuba; Reagan on not trading weapons for hostages with Iran; Clinton about his dalliance with Monica Lewinsky; Cheney about the existence of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. In American politics, telling the truth is often seen as an obstacle to accomplishing a self-interested goal. “Honesty” avers Ginsberg, “would so frequently be politically damaging that virtually all politicians and public officials become practiced liars.” Ginsberg, The American Lie (New York: Oxford University Press, 2007), 2.
