Little lies, a sign of no problem with big lies.
Thanks to the poster on You Tube that he was caught in action.
How embarrassing.

lots of folks are "fans" of sport and can't name a player. there is a difference between being a fan and being fanatic. he doesn't have to know the name of every player to like the game.

Yes, they are shameless liars.
Both extremes, left and right, are shameless liars, it's just that the RW is a good bit more practiced at it.

Not really seeing the lie. He said that HE thinks that at a certain point you've made enough money. It's the American way to continue making it.

One could infer that it's not neccessarily his way of seeing it.

And no, I'm not saying he's not American, so don't jump on that.

Yes, they are shameless liars.
They are?

His own words and still his supporters deny the truth.

Want to guess how many chief executives of financial companies in 2009, according to Forbes, earned as much as the 20 celebs I’ve listed here?

How about none?

In fact, the $2.4 billion in total earnings of the 100 highest-paid CEOs, regardless of industry, barely beat out the $2.1 billion of the twenty-five best-compensated celebs (living ones, that is).
Again, obama and his straw man - always looking for a target for his rhetoric to help him to push along his radical agenda.

Sounds to me like he thinks some people make too much money. As soon as he said he realized that wouldn't go over well so he tried to gloss it over.

No one can read that quote and not come to the conclusion that he thinks there should be a limit on pay. Kind of ironic, his tax returns showed he made 5 million last year. Right in the middle of a recession. He shouldn't be giving lectures on what people make. Guess the Bush economy has been pretty good to the Obama family.

Sounds to me that you have a reading comprehension problem as well as a problem realizing that Obama's tax return was for the year 2009 and he was POTUS for all but 20 days of the year.
