I fully accept that it’s a fallacy of relevance to respond to charges of wrongdoing by noting that others have done worse.
But I’m also feeling unusually petty at the moment, so let’s proceed in that vein for fun.
Let’s stipulate that when President Obama first said “if you like your plan, you can keep your plan,” he was telling a “noble lie” in the Platonic sense of the term. I’m not sure I buy that. I think it was probably more a failure to think through the dangers of being so categorical in a situation where even small margins amount to millions of people.
