So you have never heard Obama utter even a single lie? How is he dishonest, if he doesn’t lie? Subtlety is semantics/game playing; either he’s honest and doesn’t lie or he’s dishonest and lies: which is it?

So you never even read the two links I sent? The information was there: he self-proclaimed as a radical, revolutionary Marxist. It does you no good to make false and condescending accusations about what gives me satisfaction, when it’s Obama’s own words you’re up against.

I have heard him state half-truths, make misleading statements, and lie by omission. He has also broken many promises to voters. However, I do not recall an instance in which he uttered an outright misstatement of fact.

How is he dishonest, if he doesn’t lie

There are other ways of being dishonest, namely the ones listed above, besides making delberate misstatements of fact.

Subtlety is semantics/game playing; either he’s honest and doesn’t lie or he’s dishonest and lies: which is it?

If you believe that outright lying is the only way of being dishonest, then you are either incredibly naive or incredibly stupid.
