:-} You kidding? Besides his trying to take credit for what America’s fighting men and women accomplished, today he tried to take credit for defunding Iran by claiming his “committee” did just that. Only problem is he lied again. He isn’t on that committee. This trip is a treasuer trove to show Barack for what he is, an ill equipped, ill informed politician who lies at the drop of a hat.
I think that statement about his committee membership is potentially devastating. You can pass off a lot of these as just mistakes, but in that case, he made it a point to emphasize his statement that it was his committee. By doing so, its going to be awfully difficult for his campaign to dismiss as a mere slip up. Rather, it appears to be a deliberate attempt to mislead. It certainly puts a damper on the whole ‘Hope and Change’ routine, doesn’t it?
That one statement illustrates exactly what many of his detractors have said: the man simply tells people what he thinks they want to hear. The fact that he had the audacity to lie about something so easily verified just makes it look that much more obvious.
The public isn’t paying attention and the MSM will limit reporting. The public won’t focus on the election until after Labor Day with the exception of the conventions, i.e., the Dem Convention is August 25-28.
