The men the American people admire most extravagantly are the most daring liars; the men they detest most violently are those who try to tell them the truth.

~ H.L. Mencken

Bill Clinton – the examplar of truth in modern America – has proposed the establishment of a government "ministry of truth" – to be run by either the United States government or the United Nations – that would supervise the content of the Internet, requiring individuals and websites to conform to agency factual standards. Such a proposal is consistent with Hillary Clinton’s long-standing interest in establishing a government "gatekeeper" for the Internet; one that would prevent just anyone from putting their opinions out into the world.
