Actually there isn't a difference between having lied and currently lying. One is just past tense and the other is present tense. Oh and if you think that the list of GOP candidates you have to pick from haven't lied or aren't lying, then you are lying to yourself.
We have all told lies before and what you lied about in your past to someone is your business. However, if you are looking me in the eye or looking the American people in the eye and blatantly lying to them, there is a difference between lying about who stole the cookies on Thanksgiving vs shaking someone's hand and saying I will fight to get billionaires out of politics, while accepting large donations from billionaires. If you still don't understand, there is no hope for you on understanding.
Hillary Clinton said, "We need to fix this dysfunctional political system and get unaccountable money out of it once and for all even if it takes a constitutional amendment." She also said she plans to raise $2 billion this election through Super PACs.
This is where I really respect Sanders. Even though he is going against the Clinton machine and is now moving up in the polls, he still says he will refuse to get a Super PAC, my average donation is $42.
So, she says, hey there is all this unaccountable money which is making our political system dysfunctional, but I'm planning to raise $2 billion this election. Is she a liar or just a hypocrite?
But I guess republican logic says Hilary should not take Super PAC campaign money (because she opposes Super PAC's), and then Hilary be unable to run for president because of lack of funds, and then be unable to pass the campaign finance laws she wants to pass.
And this thread is like Al Gore and his private jet. Republicans say "Al Gore says no more CO2 emissions, but he's flying in a private jet."
But perhaps the only way to stop Super PAC's is for Hilary to use Super PAC money to become president and then pass laws to outlaw them. And the only way to stop Al from flying in a fuel guzzling jet is for someone like Al himself to pass laws giving private jets better fuel efficiency?

So what you are saying is you plan on not voting?
