Presidential Prevarication

Pathological liars make such a habit of lying, they often forget the lies they tell. Now, I wouldn't be so bold as to say that President Obama is a pathological liar. But after watching this video, I must wonder just what kind liar he is:



These things are a bit perplexing, especially when the President is now said to be pushing the Nuclear Option of Reconciliation on Healthcare.

So let's review.

We cannot establish that President Obama is a pathological liar. But we can say with a certainty that he is a liar, if he presses forward with the prospect of Reconciliation. My guess is he is so desperate to fulfill his goal of transforming this nation into a European style entitlement model that he really doesn't care what he once said.

My grandmother once had a saying, "promises are like pie crust, easy made and easy broken". She wasn't an educated woman by any standard, but she was wise and knew the concepts of life well. If she were alive today she'd no doubt see another fine example of her often used cliche, that is, if the events of the past year hadn't killed already by now.


UPDATE:

Desperate times call for desperate measures, sometimes. It appears that Obama is doing everything he can to sell this lemon and promising the world to do it.

Politik Chikago is alive and well.

I would be that bold...he is a pathological liar, all you have to do is read his books and then read the interviews by friends who grew up with him and said that it was all a bunch of bs.

Heck, he couldn't even get the story straight when he was talking about a time when one of his kids became ill and was in the hospital. Any person who has had a child in the hospital never forgets the facts. He just makes stuff up about his family and his upbringing, and does so even when he knows that it can be verified to be true or not.

You can count on it, if Obama's lips are moving, he's lying. Even when someone challenges him on his facts, he starts stuttering and denying the facts. He can't stop himself...he's pathological.

These are very weighty questions, Sunset …

Is Obama a pathological liar?

Is Obama a politician?

Is Obama a politician from Chicago?

Is Obama a democrat?

Is Obama a socialist/communist?

Tsk, tsk, tsk …

ME, I get the funny feeling that you aren't a fan of Obama. ;)

Usually, unless he is a polar bear.

I thought the Polar bears had all died off from global warming?

Robert Gibbs has a quote that in effect says Obama will do whatever it takes to pass health care. I just put up a post about the judgeship, merely a coincidence. The man was surely the most qualified for the job

Ahhh but Chuck, here are no coincidences in politics.

ME, great video. I like VJ and was so surprised when I heard her take a stand against Obama. Not something I was expecting from a fromer member of SNL. But hey, I guess Dennis Miller hasn't been too shy about it either.

Nice to see that at least some of the SNL alumni haven't turned out like Ackroyd and Chase.
