You would think they would be all over a story like that.

The media in this country is a joke, but not for the reasons conservatives believe. If you want to see evidence of this, go back to 2002 and 2003 and see their "analysis" of the WMD's in Iraq lie AND their complicity in selling this lie. They don't do serious journalism, they do info-tainment.

FOX News, of course, couples info-tainment with propaganda, making their viewers the least informed amongst all Americans.

No, I did not read his book.

But his inability to tell the truth -- even in an autobiography -- only reinforces the belief that he is suffering from Nacissistic Personality Disorder.

I know Obamabots do not like to hear this, but his entire life has been a lie, starting with the fact that he was a bastard child of an underage girl and a married alcoholic from Kenya with a pregnant wife and a child back home.

You can learn a lot about a person when you study their history. And sometimes what you learn isn't pleasant.

I see the above lies are never mentioned in this thread. 5000 dead in Iraq? No problem.

The lemmings hate whatever their hero's tell them to hate. Rush, Hannity, Palin, and the like.

Oh, so you think MSNBC, CNN, & NBC are paragons of neutrality?

Here, let me pour you another glass of grape Kool-Aid.

Since I was active duty during the war and that was part of my job to tally up the wounded and dead and report that information to my commander, I resent the fact that you are insinuating that I'm lying based solely from insistance on believing anything that the Aussie owned network tells you. This only shows your own lack of intelligence to find out the truth about the world around you instead of getting all of your information from a station that went to court in order for them to lie to people like you legally

As far as "hating" a drug addict/coward, a verbal bully, and a complete moron I don't really need anyone's permission to make my own opinion on this calvacade of stupidity.

You voted him in. He's the best liar that was available. At least his lies were consistent.

They all lie. That's what they do. That's what all politicians do. People seem to think that it is a new thing. That's what makes me crack up. "Oh, this one is telling the truth." OK. Enjoy your unwillingness to accept that they all lie.

Anyone that thinks a politician tells the truth all the time is an idiot. Go back 40 years. No president has ever told the whole truth.
No politician has ever told the truth save George Washington, and he wasn't a politician!

Politicians lie, simply put.

Lol.....my thoughts exactly.

But some people like the Kool-Aid, even if they can't see that their messiah is a liah.
