Barack Obama is a liar, or, at very least, a word twisting deceiver with his smooth talk of empty words and “inspiring” persona. And beyond my general dislike for the man on the basis of him being more or less invisible, completely unknown, and not criticize on the basis of being deemed a racist, I have two glaring examples of his lies that he has muttered in the past few days.

The first one comes from his interview on FOX News last Friday. It must have been important because he went on FOX News.   He told Major Garrett that he never heard his pastor say any offensive or derogatory words while sitting in church. But then yesterday at his race speech, he said that he did hear such comments, and tried to draw common ground by suggesting that we have all heard things by our pastors that we disagree with. Alright, fine. That has no correlation to what he previously said, in fact, it contradicted it. From never to it did happen in a couple of days, foggy memory? I doubt it, rather, I believe it is him trying to save his political career and presidential aspirations that have been, in my opinion, falsely held up, sustained, and kept away from such controversy. Apparently he saw it necessary to say one thing to initially condemn his pastor, then the other to draw comparisons to each and every one of our pastors. In his first comments concerning his apparently revered reverend, he is going to say that he has no idea of the statements made and play dumb. But then just a couple days later he changes his story? Talk about doing whatever he can to save himself. What a politician, say what you need to at the appropriate time; which leads me to my second example.

Obama runs around talking about he has been against the war from the start. But with a little fact checking from the past, one is able to conclude contrary to this statement. The first problem is being against the war since the beginning and being against the war in the beginning. He was the latter, not the former. He initially was against the war, seeing no justification to remove a brutal dictator that terrorized his own people. But then in 2003, he had thoughts that he may have been wrong to oppose it and that his position and that of President Bush really had no difference. Perhaps Obama can cite when, in 2003 at this time, President Bush was too against the war. In September of 2004 when campaigning for the Senate, he thought that pulling out of Iraq would be disastrous and even said that he would send more troops to stabilize the country. And in November of that year, he said that we are committed since we went into Iraq in the first place. Again, like the politician he is, when the American people saw Iraq as bad, mostly because of the corrupt media and their own incompetence, he changed his position and I believe has been against it ever since said change. However, he cannot logically be talking about how he has been against the war from the beginning, implying that he has for the past five years, when that obviously isn’t the case. Perhaps he was initially and has been the past few years, but what about specifically 2003 and 2004 where he likened his position to that of President Bush, that he would support a “surge,” that we cannot pull out because it would be ruinous, and we are committed now that we went. At least President Bush hasn’t changed his position from one to the other, back to the first during this war. Imagine going to war, pulling out the troops, and then putting them back into action. We cannot have a president that changes such important positions depending on what the average, ignorant American thinks. Who knows who they are polling anyway? Yet he still gives his speeches on how he’s been against the war from the get go. 

How long will it be until we see the “Obama Lied” bumper stickers?
