He lies constantly.

It’s disgusting.

Remember this line...

the real crisis in our brave new relativist world will be that those who demonstrate that he is untruthful will themselves be accused of lying.

He is a slick version of a Chicago machine politician and acts accordingly.

Milhouse has virtually an entire profession, i.e., journalism, aiding and abetting him in his war on the truth.

The real villains here are those in the MSM - Obama’s followers are too stupid and too blind to see his lies and contradictions, and the press will never point them out.

Hell, under those conditions, I’d lie my ass off too.

It's not about truth but about convincing people with whatever method you have on hand. If people start wondering you tell them to lighten up and stop listening to the negative people like Rush. That works because people want to believe that they are not racist and have elected the first black president: that America is not this bleak violent racist excuse for a country that war mongers like Bush represent. So lying is not a problem for Obama because the real problem is Bush.

Obama is a political huckster. His campaign mantra of hope and change allows Obama to make things up as he goes along. An open ended agenda on the road towards socialism. Play a little political hardball when necessary, toss in Alinsky's Rules for Radicals when needed and take all the adoration the leftist media can fabricate.

What's the difference between God and Mr. Obama ?

By God's very own nature, God can not lie..

He always tells the truth. The truth just changes from day to day. His Ministry of Truth makes it so. Welcome to 1984 +25 years.

History always has the last word

Liberal revisionist historians will fix it, same as always.

Future history text books will explain how Bush "stole" the 2000 election..........If they aren't already doing it.

If obama said the sky was blue I'd wait until daybreak tomorrow and check for myself. I don't believe a single word that {expletive} utters.

Show us the real birth certificate obama! I believe you are illegally holding office and committing fraud on a scale never before seen.

First, he has confidence that the media will not be censorious and will simply accept his fiction as fact.

The key line in the article. The general public does not follow things closely enough to see the lies. If they are not pointed out on TV or in the papers, they will never realize what happened.

Actually, I think Nixon gets a lot of bad-rap he doesn’t deserve; like president Bush... I mean imagine how Nixon’s presidency would have been recorded if, instead of covering-up Watergate, he’d come out and apologized for [and dealt with] the actions of his subordinates.

There’s also a good probability Nixon didn’t order the Watergate incident, as G Gordon Liddy’s refusal to say so could indicate.

There are some Obama supporters where I live who post on the local newspaper’s blog. Most of them are unbelievasbly ignorant of history and are unable to comprehend what they read. Pointing out an error in historical fact and directing them to a source of documentation is meaningless because they just ignore it.

They will not document anything that they say. If pressed, they will begin to personally attack anyone who disagrees with them and asks for documentation of one of their outlandish claims.

I think it was Ann Coulter who first described liberalism as a mental disorder. I am convinced that some of these people are in fact mentally impaired.

Barack Obama knows his supporters. He knows how limited and how ill they are, so he feels completely comfortable spewing contradictory positions from one day to the next. He knows that he won’t loose those demented followers.

How many of them work for ACORN committing voter fraud? How many of them are there across the country? Obama is probably a little crazy himself, so we are in for rough sledding in the near run. Hopefully some of the died in the wool Democrats who voted for him have recognized their mistake.

The only question now is how much damage he can do to the country before he self destructs. Will there be an America after Barack Obama?

Barack Obama has a disturbing habit of contradicting his past declarations as if spoken words did not mean much at all.

It is a primo characteristic of a complete narcissist.
