Famous Presidential lies Contest
LBJ:
We were attacked (in the Gulf of Tonkin)
Nixon:
I am not a crook
GHW Bush:
Read my lips - No New Taxes
Clinton:
I did not have sex with that woman... Miss Lewinski
GW Bush:
Iraq has weapons of mass destruction
Obama:
I will have the most transparent administration in history. The stimulus will fund shovel-ready jobs. I am focused like a laser on creating jobs. The IRS is not targeting anyone. It was a spontaneous riot about a movie. I will put an end to the type of politics that "breeds division, conflict and cynicism". You didn't build that! I will restore trust in Government. The Cambridge cops acted stupidly. The public will have 5 days to look at every bill that lands on my desk before I sign it. It's not my red line - it is the world's red line. Whistle blowers will be protected in my administration. We got back every dime we used to rescue the banks and auto companies, with interest. I am not spying on American citizens. ObamaCare will be good for America. You can keep your family doctor. Premiums will be lowered by $2500. If you like it, you can keep your current healthcare plan. It's just like shopping at Amazon. I knew nothing about "Fast and Furious" gunrunning to Mexican drug cartels. I knew nothing about IRS targeting conservative groups. I knew nothing about what happened in Benghazi. I have never known my uncle from Kenya who is in the country illegally and that was arrested and told to leave the country over 20 years ago. And, I have never lived with that uncle. (He finally admitted (12-05-2013) that he DID know his uncle and that he DID live with him.) If elected I promise not to renew the Patriot Act. If elected I will end the war in Iraq and Afghanistan within the 1st 9 months of my term. I will close Guantanamo within the first 6 months of my term. I will bridge the gap between black and white and between America and other countries.
And the biggest one of all:
"I, Barrack Hussein Obama, pledge to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States of America."
I believe we have a winner.

At the time the entire world's intelligence community agreed he did. When a president acts on that info it is not a lie. The media lied about the president.

GWB- If called on by the commander in chief today two entire divisions of the Army would have to report ,"Not ready for duty, sir".
Remember arriving by jet stunt? 'Couldn'y arrive by helicopter because the USS Abraham Lincoln was hundreds of miles off shore ( Skyline of San Diego could be seen from the deck).

I don't think the Abraham Lincoln would hold Obama if he'd landed on it...along with Michelle and her 600 person entourage.

If they weren't in Iraq, how did Syria get them?

Shows what you know. That banner on the USS Lincoln was put there for the benefit of the crew for completing their mission.

If you could get a bet down on lying contest, my $ would on Clinton. Either one !
