All Presidents have been accused of lying by their political opponents, but Obama’s habitual lying has generated millions of words as various pundits have tried to figure out why. Writing in the October 25, 2012 edition of American Thinker Selwyn Duke said, “A liar, however is someone who lives and breathes the lie; someone who specializes in the art of artifice; someone to whom lying is his first recourse, not his last. Such a man is Barack Obama.” In July 2011, Joseph Curl asked “Is Obama a pathological liar?” in a column for The Washington Times. “In the weird world that is Washington, men and women say things daily, hours, even minutely, that they know deep down are simply not true. Inside the Beltway, we all call those utterances “rhetoric”…And lately the President has been lying so much that his pants could burst into flames at any moment.” In June The Pew Research Center, which has tracked the various descriptions of President Obama over the years, noted that “The survey finds that the one-word impressions people have of Obama have changed a great deal throughout his presidency. Terms like incompetent and liar now are among the most frequently used words to describe Obama.” No surprises here.
