The Truth

I think he has you on that one Chilly. Obama actually lived with his uncle for a period of time in Boston. I don't get why he lied about it as it wouldn't have hurt him in the election. The only folks that would have cared about it are the ones that weren't going to vote for him anyway.

To me it shows a lack of character to not acknowledge a family member. His uncle gave him a home when he needed one and in return he pretended he didn't know him for political reasons. Really it doesn't get much more shameful than that. If Obama is willing to throw his own uncle under the bus then there probably isn't anybody he isn't willing to throw under the bus when comes right down to it.

I know, I don't understand why he lied about it either unless it's about that deportation thing or DUI incident( I chuckled when I read his uncle told the police"I think I will call the White House.” when they pulled him over). Neither one of those tings are a big deal for him to "fix", nothing like all the other huge[ahem]"scandals Obama has is responsible for.

Bottom line is Obama has lied on several occasions and flat out been busted on them. Spin it, sugar coat it, twist it anywhich way you want, it won't change the fact that he has lied.

I'm close to joining the Modern Whig party.
Oh please. Most independents are just embarrassed Republicans.


As an independent I disagree. Most new self proclaimed "Libertarians" are just embarrassed Republicans.
