Krauthammer on Obama's ISIS Lie:

But to me, the real issue is just the way he just lies about this the same way he did with ISIS. He didn't call ISIS the JV team, though he obviously did. In the middle of his sentence explaining this, which is ridiculous, he saying -- he actually interrupted himself to say, 'Chuck,' he says, 'and I'm being honest now.' Well, whenever a politician interrupts a sentence to put that in, you know what you are about to hear is a bald-faced lie. And he did it without flinching. You sort of have to tip your hat.

He's a pathological liar. It's pure narcissism.

...this bastard lies with such ease...it's not even second nature to him....it IS his nature to lie.

Like my ole pappy used to say, "that dude would rather climb a tree to tell a lie when he could stand on the ground and tell the truth."

I like Kraut, and Oboe is an obvious pathological liar, but...

It's not a lie, if you believe it.

...normally you would be right...but Obama has been caught in so many lies during his tenure...that it's not often he speaks WITHOUT lying.

quite profound constanzaism
the global warmist lie, yet they don't realize it because they actually believe it. O wakes up with a new reality every day, so who's to say his tripe is a lie?

Obama is no different than any other politician....when their lips are moving, BS is coming out.

It's pretty lame editorializing, really. Krauthammer now claims lies by projecting words into Obama's mouth of the future. Obviously. the President hasn't given him enough actual material to work with.

Actually, implicit in Obama's statement was/is that he was lying about everything he said up to that point.

When you have a base of supporters like Obama, and an adoring press, then lying is so easy and effective, that it's irresistible.

THE BALD LIES OF POLITICAL EXPEDIENCY
Remember the al-Qaeda-is-on-the-run 2012-election talking point? It was mostly a lie. The administration deliberately released to sympathetic journalists only those documents from the so-called Osama bin Laden trove that revealed worry and dissension among the terrorists. Then it nourished essays by pet journalists trumpeting the decline of al-Qaeda. Disturbing memos that confounded that narrative, as Weekly Standard journalist Steven F. Hayes recently noted, were kept back. “On the run” was dropped after the 2012 election, when events on the ground made such an assertion absurd.
quote:
Has anything the administration said about pulling our troops out of Iraq proven true? Was it really the Iraqis’ fault or George Bush’s? Was our leaving proof that Iraq might be one of the administration’s “great achievements”? Was the Iraq that we left without any peacekeepers really “stable”? On more than ten occasions the president bragged on the campaign trail that he alone had ended American involvement in Iraq. When Iraq predictably blew up after our departure, he snarled to reporters that he was angry that anyone would dare accuse him alone of being responsible for our precipitate departure.
quote:
The result is that almost any time the president makes reference to the past, ours or his, we can assume two things: His facts are wrong, and they are wrong in a way that is meant to highlight his own godhead

Do any of you all even know what a lie is, as opposed to an opinion or statement based on subjective data?
If I say, ISIS will be crushed within the year, am I lying? How can you prove I am lying? Is that even a lie??? Idiots.
By your definition, everyone that has an opinion is a pathological liar.

So, did Obama claim that he had gotten us out of Iraq all during his re-elect, then do an about face and blame Bush for the withdrawal of troops when Iraq started to fall apart as was predicted?
Oh, and did Obama not say that if Syria used chemical weapons that would be crossing a red line, and once Syria did use them claim that he wasn't the one who set the red line, the world did?

What did the President mean when he said "Chuck, and I'm being honest now?" An educated person, taking him at face value, would interpret that to mean he was acknowledging to Chick that previously he was not honest, but his current statement to Chuck is to be believed. That was not Krauthammer projecting. That was Obama admitting.
If the President was admitting to being dishonest previously, then why should anyone expect him to be honest going forward? When I was in officer candidate school we had classes on ethics taught by a Chaplain. He said the absolutely critical characteristic for an officer is integrity. Others must have confidence that you have done what you said, or will do what you say. And one that confidence is lost you can't ever get it back. Obama has admitted to compromised integrity, and he has no right to expect anyone to believe him despite your faith in him.
Isn't it ironic that you, the supposedly rational atheist, is advocating faith in the honesty of an admittedly dishonest person?
