I'm open to the possibility that Obama has outright lied, and by outright lie, I mean a deliberate and obvious misstatement of fact. To give an example, Clinton's "I did not have sexual relations with that woman" would qualify as an outright lie.

If you can provide an example of Obama doing something equivalent, please do so and I will stand corrected. However, I know of no example.

That's not to say that Obama is honest. He's not. In fact, he's one of the most dishonest presidents we have had in a long time. He routinely lies by omission, and he frequently twists the truth and misleads. But deliberately misstate fact? I can't think of an example.

And no, I don't think his writing in his book about his father living with his mother for two years counts as an outright lie. It is a misstatement of fact, but to qualify as an outright lie, it would have to be deliberate, and I don't think it was deliberate because there is no plausible motive for it. What could he possibly gain by misstating an unimportant detail about his parents' separation? Nothing that I can see.

Therefore more likely explanation is that his mother lied to him about his father leaving when he was 2, and he repeated it not knowing it was untrue.

Obama has verbally repeated that LIE dozens of times ***after*** being very publicly corrected. [You can look it up on your favorite search engine, if you doubt me.] To you that won’t count. You’ll say Obama is too stupid or out-of-touch to be aware that the truth about his deadbeat father has been exposed hundreds of times over, and it includes abandoning Obama as an infant—NOT a two-yr-old. No matter how many times Obama is corrected, and no matter how many times he repeats the lie anyway, you’ll deny it. Why are you so committed to defending Obama’s honor? He knows his myth about his father is a LIE and he keeps on telling the whopper anyway. Why do you defend that type of bold-faced LYING???

Why not answer my second question, re: JR and Marxism? Why tell me I don’t know what I’m talking about—despite my links that say otherwise—while depriving JR of your superior knowledge?

I know you got the zot - curiosity was killed by the viking kitties - but this one is too easy to leave unanswered.

I would say the most famous outright misstatement of fact would be the one that caused Rep. Joe Wilson to stand forth and say “YOU LIE!”.

That lie was that 0bamacare didn't cover illegal aliens. It does.
