Obama is a liar?

[inevitable]

It would appear that way! What excuse can you make for him?

Well he is in fact a politician (liar) so I'm pretty sure no one is entirely surprised. The idea that he may or may not be entirely truthful in all that he says is beside the point for me at least personally. To think that I'm utterly against the Republican ideology and many of their social values is why I support the Democratic party, not just Obama.

Which morals are you talking about? Lying is something every politician practices, McCain and Obama are probably similar in that respect. However, McCain has had affairs and divorced wives over them.

Morals are for the birds. How many pointless threads are you going to make.

NOPE

They are both fuckbags, I'll just stick with the fuckbag who shares the same opinions on major policy. I think conservatives are fundamentally wrong about just about everything. In another sense, they aren't any more or less moral than the majority of their constituency. Seems like you're throwing stones just to throw stones.

The world is immoral and you would be naive to think otherwise. Why would our presidential candidates be any different?

[saysmydoctor]

What a fucking idiot. Look at that whole website, it points out lies and misstatements of BOTH candidates, Jesus Christ.

[timchoke]

Politician lies. World stops turning.

[HashHolly]

Run the numbers yourself. I say FactCheck.org is incorrect on this one.
