"(What do you think would happen if you had lied during the interview for your current job? How long do you think it would take your employer to escort you to the parking lot?)"
It would take until he actually looked and discovered the lie. And they seldom look. The amount of lying on resumes is genuinely staggering, yet people get away with it all the time.
The same is true of the GOP generally. They know that their base is too lazy to learn the facts, too stupid to understand the facts, (what I call "the triad sins") and too dishonest to accurately report the facts. So they lie with promiscuous abandon.
My particular peeve is how they try to co-opt the Reverend Doctor Martin Luther King to their own agenda. They claim he voted Republican (a bald-faced lie; no one knows how he voted on any topic or election.) They hold up the fact that he was a Baptist minister, ignoring the fact that the So. Baptist council changed its rules so that no one like King could ever become a minister in their church again. They ignore the fact that he openly embraced socialism. Etc.
