A Moment of Truth

"Here comes the moment of truth" we often hear people say...and not surprisingly, the sentence usually springs from the diplomatic mouths of politicians.
What a hypocritical thing to say, and upon hearing it people get carried away with the suspense it creates, instead of seeing the mockery and disrespect of intelligence it veils.
"Here comes the moment of truth". As if Truth should have a rendezvous in the first place.
It seems to me it's not the moment of truth that comes, but WE go to it when we occasionally take vacation from lies...only when it's in our best interest in ourselves and our selfishness to do so.
