According to Fox probably no conservatives ever.

Does that answer that question?

Good.

Have there been instances of presidents in the past being a little less than honest when addressing the nation? Do they get called out on it?



No. Obama is the first president to lie in a national address. He is a Marxist who plans to take complete control of the federal government by 2016. Concurrently, the National Guards of the various states will be "federalized" and will begin the confiscation of all privately owned firearms. A state religion will be established and named Barackism. Word is that Al Sharpton will be appointed to head the new religion and insure that it is implemented through indoctrination in public schools in all fifty states, the District of Columbia and the Virgin Islands. Most private industry will be nationalized and stock ownership will be transferred to the "people" (the federal government). In the meantime, Obamacare will be converted to single payer insurance, and the death panels will not only mandate euthanasia of all Republicans over the age of 65, but will also oversee the abortions of most white male unborns.

Other than that, he was pretty straightforward tonight.

You call what Obama does a "little dishonest"?

SOTU is just not dignified anymore. The stupid little high five run out session followed by 1 hour of utter lies and threats. Yet again this administration further trashes the dignity of the office it once had.

Presidents have admitted lying when addressing the country.

Clinton said, They knew I didn't mean it when I said I would not raise taxes.

In fairness to politicians you have to separate out when they baldfaced lie where they absolutely know it vs. saying something that turns out differently but they didn't know it at the time.

They can't not lie, would never get anything done.

obama makes it into an artform though.

Here's a tip if you are wondering if any politician is lying to you just check to see if his or her lips are moving.
