The Disconnect Between Reality And What Obama Says
SEE HERE I suppose "disconnect" is more polite than saying lying. When one says something that is counter to reality with the intention to deceive that is the definition of reality. Notice there have to be two elements: 1) one counter factual, and 2) one intentional counter factual. So just being wrong isn't a lie. Bush didn't lie about WMDs. In fact it isn't even clear it was counter factual given the long chain of trucks transporting something into Syria in the weeks of run up. They probably were not out for a nice truck excursion. But Obama has quite a long list of things that he says that are not only counter factual but which he ought to know are counter factual. Now to be fair, "ought to know" and "know" are two different things. But either he's stupid or he's lying and neither are much of a recommendation for someone running for president. Ann Coulter has a biting way of making the point. GINGRICH ON THE DEBATE DISHONESTY
