Accusing someone of lying is a serious matter. Especially when that someone is the President of the United States. Charges of that nature should be leveled based only on absolute proof of a deliberate statement, intentionally made, whose sole purpose is to deceive. Based on this criterion, President Obama is a liar. Demonstrably so. And a disturbing pattern is emerging that allows for the possibility that our president is a serial liar. Consider:
In just the last month, Obama has made several statements that are just not so. Statements made to the American public that were in direct conflict with known facts.
In April, Obama flatly stated that implementing ObamaCare will reduce the deficit by $1 trillion. A day later, the Congressional Budget Office reported that statement was 'incorrect,' pegging the "deficit savings" at $210 billion over 10 years.
In the same April 15 speech, Obama stated that the tax burden on the wealthy is the lowest it has been in 50 years. A simple fact-check proves him wrong. Obama did not correct his false statement and the media didn't either.
In January of 2009, Obama stated that it was no longer necessary to kill Osama bin Laden to win the war against al-Qaeda. On May 1, 2011, after the successful raid by Navy Seals that killed bin Laden, Obama told the nation that he made the capture or killing of Osama bin Laden a "top priority," and had instructed CIA Chief Leon Panetta to make this job number one. Which statement is correct?
Last week, several of my friends asked me if I believed that bin Laden was really dead. The questions weren't surprising, considering the mass of misinformation and conflicting accounts of bin Laden's death now emanating from the White House...

Very interesting that the last two democrat presidents have been serial liars, that the last democrat House and Senate leaders seem to have no regard for the truth. How far does this immorality go? How far back in history, how widespread, does it include all in government, does it include most public “servants”? Truly, has the world already lost its soul to the Father of Lies?
There are lies, damn lies, statistics and Obama.
YES. It’s what communists do. Any more questions?
Excellent points. It seems there are many now that make a living if not by outright lying by twisting or cherry picking a small truth to make the overall lie acceptable.
Many people tend to support the outright liars using this method and it goes without saying the majority are political pundits and people with a law background.
***Maybe the Bush administration felt it meant more to appear on the hunt for Osama in order to justify staying in the ME and Astan.***
I’ve thought for years that Osama could very well be dead, BUT buried in one of the many caves we reduced to ashes Who could have dug out every one of those caves and hunted for his remains, and would there be anything left to prove his DNA?
Is he a serial liar, or is he a lie? I know it’s splitting hairs, and a meaningless distinction when when we are drowning in a septic tank of BS, but Obama strikes me as one endless fraud.
I was thinking more like "Is nObama a Pathological Liar?", or maybe, like his Sec'y of State and her hubby, "Is nObama a Sociopath?".
Serial liar sounds tame, sorta like Will Ferrell doing an ad for Cheerios.
well said, Sir!! Spot on!
was wondering how to work in a bit of Mark Twain...
To be a serial liar would imply that sometimes he tells the truth. Looking at it that way he is just a liar.
Well then does that mean you don’t believe the headline on this post either.
A serial liar means exactly what is says. Please don’t be like Glenn Beck and acuse Obama and his minions of every treasonous act humanly possible and then turn around and say “oh he would never lie about this certain subject”. A serial liar does not deserve your faith and trust my friend. So even though we are the same side I still have to respectfully disagree with you. God Bless u brother.
“You believe that reality is something objective, external, existing in its own right. You also believe that the nature of reality is self-evident. When you delude yourself into thinking that you see something, you assume that everyone else sees the same thing as you. But I tell you, Winston, that reality is not external. Reality exists in the human mind, and nowhere else. Not in the individual mind, which can make mistakes, and in any case soon perishes; only in the mind of the Party, which is collective and immortal. Whatever the Party holds to be truth is truth. It is impossible to see reality except by looking through the eyes of the Party.”
George Orwell, 1984
I believe the headline. I just don’t believe the military would allow themselves to be used in a lie of this magnitude for political gain.

Nothing new here - just a question of degree, combined with a shockingly arrogant “in your face” approach like we’ve never seen before.
Rep. Joe Wilson got it right: “In September 2009, Wilson received international attention when he interrupted a speech by U.S. President Barack Obama to a joint session of Congress by shouting “You lie!” The incident resulted in a formal rebuke by the House of Representatives. Wilson later apologized to Obama and his apology was accepted.”
Perhaps he can get his reputation back, now?
“President Obama is a liar”
Sociopath comes to mind and includes being a LIAR.
Is the sky blue?
I’m having trouble believing osama was killed on Sunday. I’m kinda in the Tora Bora camp. No pictures, the fake photo of the ‘elite’ watching porn, 20 some changing stories, all of it.
The only reason I think he’s dead is because our Military says so. I trust the seals. I don’t trust the fraud in chief because says so.
