Contestant No. 5
Barack Hussein Obama:
- “I will have the most transparent administration in history.”
- “The stimulus will fund shovel-ready jobs.”
- “I am focused like a laser on creating jobs.”
- “The IRS is not targeting anyone.”
- “It [Benghazi attack] was a spontaneous riot about a movie.”
- “If I had a son, he’d look like Trayvon.”
- “I will put an end to the type of politics that breeds division, conflict and cynicism.”
- “You didn’t build that!”
- “I will restore trust in government.”
- “The public will have 5 days to look at every bill that lands on my desk.”
- “I didn’t set a red line [against the use of chemical weapons in Syria].”
- “Whistle blowers will be protected in my administration.”
- “We got back every dime we used to rescue the banks and auto companies, with interest.”
- “I am not spying on American citizens.”
- “Obamacare will be good for America.”
- “You can keep your family doctor [under Obamacare].”
- “Every family’s medical insurance premiums will be lowered by $2500 [under Obamacare].”
- “If you like it, you can keep your current healthcare plan [under Obamacare].”
- “Just visit healthcare.gov, and there you can compare insurance plans, side by side, the same way you’d shop for a plane ticket on Kayak or a TV on Amazon.”
- “Certainly I was not aware of [the Fast and Furious gunrunning to Mexican drug cartels].”
- “I knew nothing about the IRS targeting conservative groups.”
- “I knew nothing about what happened in Benghazi.”
- “I had never met my uncle [Onyango "Omar" Obama who is in the United States illegally and who was arrested and told to leave the country over 20 years ago].”
- “I had never lived with my uncle [Omar].” (After Omar testified in court at his deportation hearing that his nephew had lived with him, the White House admitted on Dec. 5, 2013, that Barack indeed had lived with his uncle for a brief period in the 1980s while Barack was a student at Harvard Law School.)
And the biggest lie of all:
- “I, Barrack Hussein Obama, pledge to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States of America.”
Bingo! We have a winner!
