In the weird world that is Washington, men and women say things daily, hourly, even minutely, that they know deep down are simply not true. Inside the Beltway, we all call those utterances ârhetoric.â But across the rest of the country, plain olâ folk call âem lies. Bald-faced (even bold-faced) lies. Those folks have a tried-and-true way of determining a lie: If you know what youâre saying is patently false, then itâs a lie. Simple. And lately, the president has been lying so much that his pants could burst into flames at any moment....... http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2011/jul/24/curl-is-obama-a-pathological-liar/
Good article, particularly liked this line. Watching the one-third-of-a-term-senator-turned-president negotiate brings to mind a child spinning yarns about just how the living room lamp got broken. Now, though, the grown-ups are in charge; the kids have been put to bed. Ten days ago, the president warned the speaker: âDont call my bluff.â Well, Mr. Boehner has. Heâs holding all the cards â and heâs not bluffing.
There's a very obvious reason the democrats are insisting on a "solution" that takes this past the 2012 election. Every time obama opens his mouth, his numbers drop.
Politicians are good at telling a: Lie whopper myth tall tale untruth dishonesty disinformation distortion evasion fable fabrication falsehood fib invention misrepresentation
I say we just raise the "limit" to a quadrillion and be done with it until the end of Dumbo's next term.
