Hillary or Obama who told the worse lie?

Hillary lied about Bosnia.

Obama lied about not ever hearing Jeremiah Wright spew his hatred.

Update:

Obamanites will say Wright doesn't spew hatred, but that will also be a lie.

Update 2:

Both need to come clean about their lies.

    Obama. He claims he couldn't abandon Rev. Wright anymore than he could abandon the black community. He abandoned Rev. Wright. He claimed to have voted against the war in Iraq before he could vote against the war in Iraq. He told union workers that he would renegotiate NAFTA and then said that was just political talk. Depending on his speech, he will or won't talk with to the enemy with conditions. Depending on his speech and where he is giving the speech, he will denounce his flag pin or wear it. He first said he would just help the poor children with healthcare. Hillary lists 47 million without healthcare and Obama now wants to help 45 million without healthcare. This includes around 10-12 million illegal aliens and 15 million making $50,000 or more. Only 8.3 million have been making under $50,000 a year and have been uninsured for 2 years or more. Obama has claimed (along with the other candidates although McCain was the last to get onboard and that was probably for political reasons) that the U.S. has been in a recession even though the economy grew in the last 5 months. He claimed to be for hope and change yet he rarely votes in Congress he votes over 97% for the Democratic party.

    As far as being a pure liar, I've not seen anyone close to Hillary. She live a lie all these years in pursuit of the Presidency. She has lived down her own far left political views, as a Senator, because she knew it would hinder her chances for a Presidential bid. She and her husband I believe are about the most corrupt individuals I have ever witnessed in politics. If it comes down to it, I would rather have a white hating Obama, at least I know where he's comming from and won't last more than 4 years, if that long.

    Randell,

    You are possibly ignoring the true issue here.

    Rather than look at whose lie is worse, you need to consider the character issue.

    With regard to Obama, if he doesn't repudiate and reject the objectionable portions of Rev Wright's teachings, what does that mean regarding his character and ability to lead and represent the US?

    With regard to Clinton, we all know she didn't misspeak. I mean, you know if you are being shot at. I am an ex-cop, and I have been shot at, I'll never forget. Anyway, has she apologized for her dishonesty, and if not, what does this mean as far as integrity? Do we consider integrity an integral part of a leader's character? Isn't lack of character why Gov Spitzer resigned (an honorable thing to do)?

    We have a couple more months to let Clinton and Obama try to establish character before the convention. I'm sure glad I'm not a superdelagate.

    When you give 100,000+ you start to embellish thr truth..but Obama has ouright lied by omission. Hisinvolvement with Rezko, Black Muslims, Grandmother, Feelings about White Folks. Now I know we had slavery in the country, I know we have riots, wars..but i have never seen a glorified community organizer, failed law clerk get elected President without a test of credibility and the ability to tell the truth. He lies by omission. Typical White People was not aslip of the tongue that was an omission of his true feelings and he should fess up to it and not throw his grandmother under the bus. All of us have heard stories about raping during slavery and black children being deflowered by mature white slawve owners -- but we don't hate because of this we try to learn and teach the lessons of slavery to prevent it ever happening again.

    First response "I don't think [Wright] was spewing hatred."

    this is exactly why some people should not be permitted to vote...they haven't the capacity to see the obvious. This is the perfect example of the thought process of a typical Obama supporter. Frightening.

    Obama lied about things which could put this country in peril, ...big serious lies, Hillary fabricates some things which have no dire outcome on this country!

    Bush lied about Iraq, and more, serious lies for 8 years!

    Obama for sure. Hillarys was no big deal, it was 12 years ago. If you read what was going on in Bosnia, there had been reports the previous days of sniper fire. Why else would she have been told to run to her car and why was the reception closed to the public.
