I tried to keep my bias out of it. so I campared Obama with Clinton and Carter. I thought clinton was a liar... but there is no almost no comparison. (we know know clintion was responsible for letting the chinese get important tech and we know he had a big part in the loss of glass steagall... but still not even close. Bush, sucked and he probably sold us out. If Bush really let bin laden go out of the mountains... and If Bush really let billions flow to his buddies in Iraq and if Bush had been able to get Harriet Miers on the court and if Bush knew he was lying to get us into the Iraq war... I would have to move Bush past Obama level. But, I know Obama lied.
George Will - amazing analysis. --- On Thursdayâs âSpecial Reportâ on the Fox News Channel, Washington Post columnist George Will reacted remarks from President Barack Obama earlier in the day, in which he touted ObamaCare before the White House press corps. âOn one thing, the president is quite right: The Democrats you ought to say the Affordable Care Act is what we are,â Will said. âContinent-wide imposed from Washington top-down reform that involves a tapestry of taxes, mandates and other coercions. Aside from that, his performance today had the four basic Obama rhetorical tropes. First you attack a straw man. Republicans said no one would sign up. Of course no Republican ever said any such thing. Then you declare the debate over. The debate on climate change is over, the debate on universal preschool is over, everyone be quiet. Gay marriage, everyone be quiet. Now this debate is supposedly over.â âThen he says itâs working,â he continued. âItâs hard to know what that means because the ethanol program which subtracts from the public good in a variety of ways is working in the sense it's being implemented in the law. Sugar import quotas, the same thing, itâs working but is not good for everybody. And finally, thereâs his standard there can be no honorable and intelligent disagreement with me. States that have not expanded Medicaid are doing it out of spite because of him, because he says it will not cost them a dime. It won't cost them a dime for three years. After that it will cost them a mountain of dimes. So itâs a basic tour de force of Obama rhetoric.â http://www.breitbart.com/Breitbart-...-Tropes-of-Obamas-Affordable-Care-Act-Remarks
How many times have we seen this formula for the lie.... First beat the strawman Then say the debate is over Then say its working Then say there is no honorable disagreement.
George Will is simply the best at diagnosing politics, its nice to see him on fox news where he actually gets a chance to tee off on liberals, as opposed to ABC, where he was too polite to speak over all the far left radicals like krugman who regularly appeared on Stephanopolous show.
ACA.....not a lie "You can keep your own insurance" He should have added "If it meets the criteria" An oversight , not a lie. Most could keep there insurance. The insurance companies also are responsible as they dropped people. Benghazi....not a lie. A tragedy, incompetence at lower levels of the State dept but no lies. IRS.........he did not a lie and as an aside, the targeting was the correct thing to do. There was abuse of the "social welfare organization" category. The CU decision needed to be countered. Money is controlling too much politics. Obama is not a liar. Obama wants what is best for the US and is smart and honorable. The vast majority of the citizenry are ignorant and stupid so the majority opinion is basically worth shit.

We all know the money needs to be taken out of politics. Having the DOJ and the IRS target conservative groups is Fascist. saying there was not smidgen of corruption there is a bold big lie.
Are you drunk or on drugs? You finally got one right. As in the majority that voted Odumbo into office.
