If the leader of the free

Earlier this week in his State of the Union address President Obama made some observations on climate change so brimming with falsehoods I´m surprised his nose didn´t fall off.[Snip]The point is that the President of the USA has access to any number of fact checkers and advisers and if he stands up and addresses the nation with a farrago of complete untruths then the buck stops with him. This dissembling and mendacity becomes all the more culpable when it forms the basis of major public policy decisions which will have a serious impact on people´s lives in the US and

D-Pole captures my feelings exactly.

As an extremely old person, my first impulse is to leave you all to the painful and destructive consequences of your leftist foolishness.

I plan to discuss this with WFB in the next life. Christopher Hitchens had better be ready to explain also.

It appears to me he´s been lying his whole life, so I don´t see why he would stop it during the SOTU speech. He is a dem after all.

First, lets get one thing straight. Obama is not a leader of anything. Not the free world and not even his marriage (Michelle wears the pants). Lets get another thing straight, he may have the title of president of the United States, but his mentality and expertise is only in community agitating. He knows how to lead malcontents to destroy things that others have built, but Obama couldn´t lead his hand to find his buttocks. To be a community agitator the person has to be a good liar and con artist. Obama is both.

#1, Christopher Hitchens will be hiding behind clouds in the afterlife, unable to admit that there is an afterlife.

Separate from that, the president is a congental, congenial liar. No one expects him to tell the truth. He is that friend in a circle of friends wh is tolerated by everyone, for no good reason.

Obama´s SOU address definitely rated 10 Pinochio´s.
I couldn´t watch it live for fear of it giving me a stroke.
But I did read the whole marvelous pack of lies transcript.
In response to Delingpole´s closing question...I do believe it is time to water that Tree of Liberty

He is the George Costanza of presidents.
Everything is a lie, but if he believes it, it is not a lie.

Wonderful how it works out for the Democrats huh? Kennedy sneaking Marilyn into the White House, Clinton getting it on with Lewinski in the Oval Office and Obama lying about anything and everyting like he don´t care who knows it...very respectful to the American people no??? The worst part is the American people don´t know enough to care or are too stupid to do something about it...

Most amusing! So...after the Narcissist-in-Chief describes (albeit in utter BS) the plight of the planet *now*...

After he´s finished ´skyrocketing the cost of electricity´, and we´re paying $9.00 a gallon for gas...

He can spend the rest of what passes for his ´career´ giving speeches and writing (or having a bomber ghost-write) memoirs of ´How I Saved the Planet´.

And frighteningly - a vast number of people will believe *those* lies as well.

Face it folks, we´re well thru the Looking Glass at this point.

I share the concern to point that I consider we could be headed for the End Times as described in Revelations. And yet, after the State of The Union came the prayer breakfast and Dr Benjamin Carson speaking truth to power. I´m sure more people in the US have read his speech.

No, we are not "doomed"simply because another person tells lies. Rather we must give up the worship of "authority figures" who are liars, manipulators, and killers, and rely on our own minds to see reality and solve our own problems. We are living in the "Age of the Liars" and "The Age of the Corrupt Leaders". Plan and live accordingly. Trust your own mind, not some self-proclaimed "authority figure".

#3, you´ve nailed it. Obama is no leader. He´s a petulant immature child liar living a lie. Nothing about him is real. America is being destroyed by this fraud and the only place he deserves is a two foot square box before a firing squad.

The real question is not does Obama lie, or is Obama incompetent, etc. but who is actually in charge? Obviously Obama is a puppet, but whose? Soros´s, an Ayatollah´s, Putin´s, Kim´s? Whoever is really in charge is delighted with everyone blaming Obama because it keeps him or her out of the spotlight.

The bottom line is that he can get away with any lie/idiotic statement/self-congratulatory line because he is black. And no one ever dare challenge that because everyone, including so-called patriots, are afraid to do so lest they be labelled racist.

Above a poster raises the question of whether this is the end times. The cause that makes the question credible is the fact that one may shout the truth at 135 decibels and rest assured that it was not heard over the tube blaring about "Honey Boo Boo" and saying "Yes to the Dress".

Our nation doesn´t want to hear.

Our minds are drawn to Paul the Apostle´s speech in II Timothy 3 where we are told that in the last days men will not be able to come to the truth, and that other men (like Jannes and Jambres, the magicians who perfectly well knew that Moses spoke the truth) will fight the truth with all their might.

Along with various other descriptors that perfectly describe America today, we realize that Paul´s conditions are satisfied. There are other conditions though which we must consider.

The progress of the Gospel seems to be foremost. The Lord will come when the fulness of the Gentiles has come in, that is, when the bulk of those who will be saved out of the Gentiles have accepted Christ (Romans 11:25). Has that occurred? Well...

It appears to be so in Europe, and increasingly so in the United States, where a dismantling and disbanding of churches is occurring wholesale because of lack of interest. I am told this is not the case below the equator, and that the church, protestant and catholic, is growing there.

So perhap we wait a while longer for the rest of the Gentiles "to come in". In the meantime our nation and culture may very well continue to wallow in the pig´s mire the American people and their leaders have created.

A Brit, but not one single elected GOP representative, counters Obama´s outrageous, intentionally destructive lies about "climate change". That´s the problem: the castrated GOP.

Speak of low information voters. They are too stupid to know that he tells lies. H.L. Mencken´s bathtub hoax was nothing compared to this story teller. Every time he opens his mouth lies spill out. Does not any one care? I am like the writer...about to hurl every time he speaks.

More than 100 members of far-right group the English Defence League gathered near the scene of the suspected terrorist attack last night.[Snip] Riot police holding shields formed a cordon around the area as the EDL members waved flags and chanted ´no surrender to the Muslim scum´, ‘Rule Britannia’ and ‘England’.

Is the worm turning against Barack Obama? After four-plus years of being given the benefit of the doubt by the bulk of the US media, the President now suddenly feels more vulnerable. Today both the New York Times and the Washington Post have run prominent and angry editorials and columns slamming the administration for its attempt to criminalise a Fox News reporter James Rosen for working a State Department source to obtain a story. The "Rosen Affair"--as it is now known--is poisoning the well in Washington at an alarming rate for Mr Obama, with an indignant White House press corps

A friend of Boston bombing suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev implicated himself and Tsarnaev in a 2011 triple slaying just before he was killed by an FBI agent early Wednesday, NBC and CBS News are reporting. Authorities were pressuring Chechan immigrant Ibragim Todashev, 27, to make a full confession to the murders when he suddenly turned violent, according to CBS. An FBI agent responded by firing his weapon and killing Todashev. The incident happened at Todashev´s Orlando apartment, not far from Universal Studios. Initially, authorities claimed that Todashev had lunged at the agent with a knife, but they later backtracked, saying it

This is the dramatic moment a woman appears to remonstrate with a man carrying a knife following a brutal attack in Woolwich. The image shows a man wearing a brown jacket and carrying what appears to be a large knife, speaking to the woman beside a blue car which has significant damage to its front end at the scene where another man died following the attack. The two alleged attackers are thought to have waited around for 20 minutes until Metropolitan Police officers arrived and then tried to attack them--but were swiftly shot by armed policemen, including a woman.

A dramatic video emerged tonight of a man with bloodied hands, carrying knives and ranting ´We swear by almighty Allah we will never stop fighting you´, after a serving soldier was hacked to death by two men just 200 yards from an Army barracks.

Former Rep.

The dam protecting the IRS scandal began to crack today when Lois Lerner, the IRS official who announced, and apologized for, the improper singling out of conservative-leaning organizations by IRS employees under her command, announced through her criminal defense lawyer that she will not testify as scheduled tomorrow before the House Oversight Committee. Rather, she will assert her Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination. This marks an enormous milestone in the IRS investigation. It can now be taken as more or less established that crimes were committed by Obama administration employees. Lerner’s lawyer tried to minimize the significance

When you get right down to it, the political targeting and stalling of tax-exempt applications by the IRS was an effort to defund the Tea Party. Rick Santelli, one of the Tea Party founders and my CNBC colleague, was the first to make this point. I’ve taken it a step further: The IRS was taking the Tea Party out of play for the 2012 election, as it looked to avoid a repeat of 2010 and another Tea Party landslide.There are a lot of numbers out there.

WASHINGTON – A top IRS official in the division that reviews nonprofit groups will invoke the Fifth Amendment and refuse to answer questions before a House committee investigating the agency’s improper screening of conservative nonprofit groups. Lois Lerner, the head of the exempt organizations division of the IRS, won’t answer questions about what she knew about the improper screening – or why she didn’t reveal it to Congress, according to a letter from her defense lawyer, William W. Taylor 3rd. Lerner was scheduled to appear before the House Oversight committee Wednesday.

(Snip)She did make a short statement to declare her innocence, however. Lerner´s motivation was more transparent than much of what the IRS has done in connection with this controversy.
