5 lies that have shaped the Obama presidency (among 75 significant lies...and counting)

I’ve counted 75 significant lies since he campaigned for the presidecy, plus casual fibs and hyperbole. Five that illustrate Obama’s falsehoods.

5. “My father left my family when I was 2 years old”---Obama had never spent a night under the same roof as his father. Obama’s autobiography has been termed, “artful shaping.” In other words, the truth is never good enough.

4. “The Fast and Furious program was a field-initiated program begun under the previous administration.” Obama spun this fiction at a Sept 2012 latino Univision forum.....the bizarre, deadly idea to let American guns “walk” into Mexico, to be used by drug cartels to kill dozens, began in Oct 2009.

3. “Not even a smidgen of corruption.” Obama said WRT the IRS scandal. If there wasn't, what outraged him when he said “It’s inexcusable, and Americans are right to be angry about it, and I am angry about it.” (May 2013).

2. “We revealed to the American people exactly what we understood at the time.” During that same Super Bowl Sunday interview, made in response to O’Reilly’s inquiry about Benghazi. Obama previously said. “You had a video that was released by somebody who lives here, sort of a shadowy character who — who made an extremely offensive video directed at — at Mohammed and Islam.”

THE BIGGEST WHOPPER OF THEM ALL

1. “Transparency and the rule of law will be the touchstones of this presidency.” Obama told his assembled staff on his first day in office. Instead, his administration refuses to hand over documents and Obama refuses to answer questions.

Obama's signature lie: “If you like your health care plan blah, blah, blah.”

Jack Cashill is the author of “You Lie! The Evasions, Omissions, Fabrications, Frauds and Outright Falsehoods of Barack Obama” (Broadside Books), out this week.

The ability of the electorate to be duped TWICE, is the real crime here.

The majority of our neighbors are idiots.

All of this nonsense simply points to the failure of "We The People" only we can put an end to it.

The question is will we? If so when?

IMO, November will tell the tale, if there is not "significant" take over of the Congress, we can not put an end to it politically.

If we can't do it politically now, there will never again be a Free Republic without the shedding of blood. Again IMO!

Obama got a lot of travel on his claim he was raised by a single mom in a racist culture. Truth of the matter is his mom remarried before he was even potty trained and was raised in Indonesia.

We have too many idiots and low information voters. Here are the two reasons they will vote for someone

  1. name recognition  -----  Hillary has the most right now just from hanging around for years and doing nothing useful as Senator and Secretary of State
  2. positive image     --- image crafted by their handlers and the mass media which may have no relation to reality

He had an imaginary father to go along with his composite girlfriend.

Obama was not raised by his mother..

His nanny was an openly gay man who, in keeping with Indonesia’s relaxed attitudes toward homosexuality, carried on an affair with a local butcher, longtime residents said. The nanny later joined a group of transvestites called Fantastic Dolls, who, like the many transvestites who remain fixtures of Jakarta’s streetscape, entertained people by dancing and playing volleyball.

They wanted everything Obama promised, e.g., Free Stuff and repudiation of the Natural Order of the Universe. Today, they are squirming as they still manage to say “ISIS/ISIL is not Islamic and we are not at War with them”.... The Natural Order is repudiating Obama, as a natural consequence of the true ordering of cause and effect. It took an Obama presidency for me to finally fully support the Liberals desire to abort themselves.

And yet the guy is rewarded with a second term . . . rather proves that America is very stupid and complicit with those that seek to destroy the country from within.

Might as well delete the clause in the oath of office for most leaders . . . enemies foreign and domestic. Every one of them that utters those words with his right hand held up is guilty of perjury of the worst degree.

Apparently, "We The People" don't have standing.

You'll need to buy some lobbyists for that.

Indeed they never learn by their mistakes and they are proof that MSM brain washing works on the weak minded.
