Politifact’s top four choices for this year’s biggest lies by a U.S. political figure all involved Obamacare, but it may surprise you who made No. 1.
President Obama’s repeated mantra that Americans could keep their health care plan of choice was bad enough, but it was worse when he modified the lie with a disclaimer, Politifact’s editor told CNN.
“What we said was you could keep it if it hasn’t changed since the law passed,” Obama said in November, earning Politifact’s “pants on fire” distinction.
There it is, it's certified.
Guess who earned Politifact’s top lie of 2013? - BizPac Review
Are they just gonna keep saying all the bad things Obama did and then forget about it and do nothing about it?
Why isn't Congress taking steps to impeach Obama and have him removed from office?
Obama makes Richard Nixon look like Abe Lincoln by comparison.

Hm. It should be no problem trying t impeach him then. Where are all the Tea Party Republicans trying to impeach Obama? I'm sure if they have a strong case on the matter, they will have no problem impeaching. Right?
I don't know, is the healthcare lie worse than the Afghanistan one? Eleven more years of Afghanistan sounds pretty bad…
The funny thing is that Politifact has essentially given itself the "lie of the year award" too as they twice supported this claim in previous fact checks.
Really? That's not cool.
I hate Mitt Romney. Let that be clear. However...Actually three times:
First time was in 2008
Then in 2012 they gave a "Half True" on the grounds that Obama's plan "takes pains to let people keep their coverage" when, in fact, the opposite was true. In fact the "grandfather" rule insured that millions would be losing their insurance.
Finally they called Romney a Liar in 2012 for telling the truth that it would cost millions their insurance on the hopey changey excuse that millions would be jumping on ACA because they preferred it.

But are you suggesting that at the time they 'knew' these things not to be so.
Are you saying I am making the mistake of assuming a base level of competency on their part? Even then passing ignorant assumptions off as verified facts is just another form of lying.
