It could be said then, they didn't give Bush a pass for it, why give Obama a pass for lying?

They will never get it, that the 2 party system is not dem / rep. It is government v. The People.

Nope. Boehner added apples and then subtracted oranges. At the point he made the statement, it was clear that the net gain was in the millions."

Nope. The 280,000 was an outdated number, and also did not include just individual plans. The number of individual policies affected by the law was about 100,000, and most never ended up getting notices in the first place."

I realize some of you love to credit Obama and the Dems with everything, but there are enough lies from the right to spread the credit around.
which of them got 4 pinnochios? No one is saying or has ever said, Republicans never lie, no one is saying politicians or for that matter, anyone does either lie or embelish (spelling) once in awhile, but I don't know of any that have lied as often as our president. I have been around along time, been voting longer than many of you have been on earth, he is by far the worst!!!! Remember we are talking about the paper than cetainly doesn't lean to the right.

Although the top three lies of 2014 are unranked, two of the three biggest lies of the year were told by Obama. One involving his ISIS JV quote (if you said your quote, you can keep your quote) - the other was about the Republicans propensity for filibustering.

Rand Paul also told a doozy as well, and rounds out the top three political lies of the year.

Congratulations again Mr President.

Paul - not good. Not good at all. Obama will soon be a has-been. But Paul is a wanna-be, and if he keeps telling such lies he will be a never-was.

If the ISIS JV is the worst they can come up with, then obviously they are running out of material.

I think you make a good point. Obama did not have to lie about ISIS being JV. He could have said that they underestimated them, they grew quicker than anticipated, and they are now ready to deal with ISIS. But instead, he tried telling everyone he meant someone else. That is pathological. He is so used to lying, it just comes natural to him.

By the way, fewer and fewer people believe him now. But he is not aware of that.

Wrong. Bush isn't even close to Obamas lie that just keeps giving. His proclamation to abide by his oath of office.

A lie from the start that has just kept on growing. IMO

Nobody will ever match George Walker Bush and his snarling puppet master Richard Cheney. Their lies stretch all the way to Iraq.
