The biggest Pinocchios of 2013

They keep it even with 5 from the left and 5 from the right.

Of course Obama gets the first spot with the most attention and wins 3 of the left's 5 biggest lies. The Washington Post, which endorsed Obama in 2008 and 2012 credited him with biggest lies in regards to 1) Health Insurance, Benghazi, and Capitol Hill Janitors getting pay cuts.

Other left lies were John Kerry claiming that he opposed the Iraq War from the start and Democrats saying that a state investigation found that Cuccineli should have been prosecuted.

Lies of the right were the NRA claiming all the democrats have armed guards at their schools, Issa saying Hillary had personally signed order to deny Benghazi more guards, Bachman saying 70% of food stamps goes to bureaucrats, Lamar Alexander said Democrats overcharged student loans by 50 Billion to pay for Obamacare, and Jeb Bush saying Obama would close the US embassy in the Vatican.

It looks like the lies on the left are far more consequential than those on the right.
