Obama´s big lie
Los Angeles Times ^ | 10/29/2013 | Jonah Goldberg

Posted on 10/29/2013 6:02:19 AM PDT by safetysign

All we've been hearing the last three years is if you like your policy you can keep it.... I'm infuriated because I was lied to," one woman told this newspaper, as part of a story on how some middle-class Californians have been stunned to learn the real costs of Obamacare.

And that lie looks like the biggest lie about domestic policy ever uttered by a U.S. president.

The most famous presidential lies have to do with misconduct (Richard Nixon's "I am not a crook" or Bill Clinton's "I did not have sexual relations") or war. Woodrow Wilson campaigned on the slogan "He kept us out of war" and then plunged us into a calamitous war. Franklin D. Roosevelt made a similar vow. "I have said this before, but I shall say it again and again: Your boys are not going to be sent into any foreign wars."

Joe Wilson was right! Obama is the biggest liar ever in the White House.

ABC actually reported this as their top story this AM.

Five years of lies and they finally covered one.

The only problem with this headline is that it makes it sounds like there’s only been one!

My first reaction was “which one”???

After 2012 it didn't matter, they are free to report on all the lies they want.

Clinton gave a new definition for the word ‘is’.

Obama is now giving a new definition for the word ‘period’.

Maybe the public will be less inclined to listen to the lies when Hillary runs.

If you listen to his blatherings about keeping your health policy, he ends the statement with “period”.

This is an important point as it shows the intent of his statement is completely without the caveats they are now using to cover their asses.

Reading just the title of this thread, my first thought was... “I wonder which lie this will be.”

Gotta admit, it’s a long list to choose from.

Sheeperals are only concerned about “lies that negatively affect ME”.

” Say I like my current car. The government says under some new policy I will be able to keep it and maybe even lower my car payments. But once the policy is imposed, I’m told my car now isn’t street-legal. Worse, I will have to buy a much more expensive car or be fined by the IRS. But, hey, it’ll be a much better car! Why, even though you live in Death Valley, your new car will have great snow tires and heated seats.”

A 3000% reduction?

WOW! I never heard that one before.

No wonder stupid people voted for him.

What’s really crazy is that it took everyone in the United States to realize just how bad Barry Hussein Soetoro was to finally get pissed only after they were forced into Obamacare.
Are they stupid or what.

Obama was not lying! Folks just don’t understand that the term “PERIOD” is actually an acronym:

P Presuming that
R Required coverages we
E Enacted are
I Included
O Otherwise you can just go into
D Debt.

in the LA SLIMES????

The entire MSM is flashing big red warning signals to Democrats to “get the Hell off of this while there’s still time!”

Their internal polling must be devastating.

I’m beginning to think that the mainstream media is beginning to throw Obama under the bus so they can “credibly” shift their support to Hillary for 2016.

Personally, I think maybe it’s time for the House GOP to offer the Dems a deal: “Let us repeal Obamacare and we won’t impeach.”

Honey, it isn't just obamacare you've been lied to about... There are maybe a handful of things obama has promised or claimed in the last 5+ years that he has actually done (more or less). There are lists on the web you can find of literally hundreds of things he has lied about.

Long past time for everyone to open their eyes and realize obama lies - continually. Most of us that are not obama supporters recognized this years ago. Wake up obama backers, obama lies about everything. He lies far more than he tells the truth. It is a safe bet that whatever he claims about any topic, any issue, any law - the exact opposite is almost certainly true.
