It is now clear that Democrats suffer from chronic amnesia.  This strikes without warning whenever the truth would cause political problems.  This was observed in 2006 when Democrats forgot they had supported the decision to attack Iraq.  Hillary forgot that she was the one that said there was no doubt about WMD in Iraq.  John Kerry forgot that he said he had known about the WMD in Iraq for years.

More recently, Hillary developed amnesia about Benghazi.  Based on the collapse of our foreign policy I wouldn’t be surprised if she has difficulty remembering that she was once Secretary of State.   President Obama suffers from chronic amnesia with regard to a wide range of subjects. This is so pronounced that when Obama does remember something it comes as a complete surprise. Eric Holder can’t remember not remembering.

There were prior incidents.  Hillary had difficulty remembering key details about Waterwater and the White House Post Office scandal.  Fortunately for her, the Special Prosecutor decided that although it was clear that Hillary wasn’t telling the truth about the White House Post Office scandal, it didn’t rise to the level of perjury. One must assume that he considered this to be early onset of amnesia.

John Kerry also had previous episodes of amnesia.  For example Kerry said the memory of President Richard Nixon ordering his swift boat into Cambodia during Christmas 1968 was seared in his memory.  The problem was that Kerry was never actually in Cambodia and Nixon wasn’t President in 1968.

This may be a genetic defect, at least with regard to Hillary.  That is because apparently her mother remembered naming Hillary after Edmund Hillary after he climbed Mt. Everest.  It was an amazing accomplishment, since Hillary was born in 1947 and Edmund Hillary didn’t climb Mt. Everest until 1953. This means that either Hillary was lying, her mother was lying to her, or her mother also suffered from amnesia.

Now we have a whole rash of Democrats coming down with amnesia.  They don’t remember supporting Obama Care. They don’t remember supporting other Obama policies either.  Recently the amnesia became so severe that they can’t remember voting for Obama. It won’t be long before they can’t even remember being Democrats.

Wait, that has already happened. The Democrat running for Senate in Kansas starting tanking in the polls, so he quit. Greg Orman forgot he was a Democrat and became an independent. He can’t remember supporting all those other Democrats. He also can’t remember which party caucus he will join.  My prediction is that if Republicans win control of the Senate, Orman will remember he was a Republican.

Arkansas Senator Mark Pryor forgot he supported gay marriage until a gay man told him his wealthy partner was considering donating to his campaign. Pryor suddenly remembered he was secretly in favor of gay marriage. Then a video of this surfaced , which caused problems because the people in Arkansas aren’t that thrilled about gay marriage.  Now Pryor can’t remember remembering.

I am sure there are more examples, but I am so confused by the CDC bulletins regarding Ebola that I can’t remember.
