    There are so many. Obama quotes are generally called lies. This one reminds me of GW's mission accomplished.

    Four years ago, I promised to end the war in Iraq. We did. I promised to refocus on the terrorists who actually attacked us on 9/11. We have. We've blunted the Taliban's momentum in Afghanistan, and in 2014, our longest war will be over. A new tower rises above the New York skyline, al Qaeda is on the path to defeat, and Osama bin Laden is dead.

    "If you like your healthcare plan you can keep your healthcare plan. No one will be able to take that away form you, period. If you like your doctor you can keep your doctor, period."

    "We are five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America."

    Both of these were uttered sincerly (one of them 36 times) by Barrack Obama. My don't they sound truthful and patriotic? No doubt he is a communist liar.

    Bush: "Wait, what did you just say?" the president interrupted. "You're predicting $4-a-gallon gasoline?"

    Maer responded: "A number of analysts are predicting $4-a-gallon gasoline."

    Bush's rejoinder: "Oh, yeah? That's interesting. I hadn't heard that."
