Definitely not a comprehensive list, but it's a start.
Obama supporters will go hysterical over this well sourced list of 252 examples of his lying, lawbreaking, corruption, cronyism, etc. | Dan from Squirrel Hill's Blog

Every President, every politician, and every human being tells lies and engages in acts of hypocrisy. But Barack Obama does these things to a far greater degree than anyone else that I have ever known of. His campaign promises were so much better sounding than anyone else’s – no lobbyists in his administration, waiting five days before signing all non-emergency bills so people would have time to read them, putting health care negotiations on C-SPAN, reading every bill line by line to make sure money isn’t being wasted, prosecution of Wall St. criminals, ending raids against medical marijuana in states where it’s legal, high levels of transparency. Obama’s promises of these wonderful things sounded inspiring and sincere. They sounded so much better than the promises of any other President. So when Obama broke these promises, it felt so much worse than when other Presidents broke their promises.

What happens when an impassioned and idealistic politician is elected into power he doesn't fully comprehend? Reality ensues. :biggrin2: Question is, did he lie under oath?

isn't that what politics is all about? a person may make idealistic statements or even policies but once in power the reality kicks in. otherwise one might be contemplating a dictatorship. and no one really wants that. (apart from the dictator)

Really...when i'm bored maybe i'll take a look at this list. As with any politician, his opponents will try to do anything they possibly can to make his actions seem inadequate because his views do not line up theirs; or they just plain out don't like him. You are entitled to your view of things because this is still the United States of America. Carry on with your ranting; a vast majority did the same when Bush II was in office...I believe a vast majority of the US population tends to turn on the seated president toward the end of his term. The thing that has been missing from the presidency is the feeling (by the public) that the president has the interest of the people at heart and not the interest of his pockets and/or the pockets of corporations.

You still haven't answered the question. Is there a list? If so why wasn't it posted along with this one and if there isn't a list, why isn't there?
If there isnt a list, somebody didnt make one. That is why. If there is a list, he probably didnt see it, which is why he didnt post it with this one. Why so hostile?

Not hostile, just proving a point. So if there isn't a list, why didn't someone make one? If there is a list why didn't he see it? Just curious.

If there isnt a list, somebody didnt think to do it. If there is one it is probably older than 4 days so he probably didnt see it linked from wherever he usually visits (which may not have linked it even if it was a recent list). There is no point to prove, you are aggressively seeking some response from honey.

Nope. Just curiously. And there is a point to prove i just won't be the one to make that point. Sooner or later someone will stroll into the thread and say it.

So do you not know what the point is? Or why can you not just come out and say what you are trying to lead into? It really doesnt look too good on you to say something like this, because either you are clueless or baiting.

Ok i'll say it before i go then. A. There is a bush list. B. There has always been a bush list. C. the reason the Bush list did not and will not get posted is because someone fully understands that politicians are politicians and they do stuff. 34. And thats because this is just another Obama bashing thread like the rest of them. 204. No real topics to debate. Hell the name of it is 252 lies from Obama that can't be construed for anything other than what the OP wanted. Blue. There won't be a list because anyone on the otherside would instantly know where bush went wrong and that just can't happen.:cool:

I imagine everybody knew from the getgo that this was an Obama bashing thread.
1) It is a list of lies from Obama
2) It was posted by h0ney.

That doesnt make it any less interesting or informative.

A quick google search found me this on bush (and his cabinet):
Study: Bushies Lied 935 Times to Sell Iraq Invasion | Alternet
Which is interesting too, but it is all related to iraq and nothing else. I would be more interested in the diversity of lies rather than just a single brand of lie. What were bush's broken promises or lies about other things? I ask this out of curiosity. Would love one for clinton too.

Would love one for Clinton too. And it was obvious. I was just curious to see what sort of answer i'd get.
