Pinocchio Obama’s Top 20 presidential liesDecember 18, 2013 by John R. Smith 25 Comments Photo Source LibertyNews.com President Barack Obama seems to be setting a record among U.S. presidents. But it’s a record he’d rather keep secret. In this era of ubiquitous cameras capturing everything, Obama may have set a new record for presidential lies. Turns out Obama is a man of empty pledges and unkept promises.

^13 billion? As opposed to 6 trillion? Granted Bush added something like 4.5 billion to the debt and that was over 8 years, still no excuse.Obama has added 6 trillion over 5 years with three years to go and the healthcare debacle still to be added. |
