Big Deal!!!! Why is no one talking about the 100's of Obama lies. For instance, the one where he talks about his dad's flag draped coffin (US flag) when in FACT his dad was a communist buried in Kenya!!!!! On Feb. 23rd 2009, Obama pledged to cut the deficit in half. It is now 16 trillion, folks. Now those are REAL LIES!!!!!
Linda, just so we're sure we understand you, could you say that again worded slightly differently?
Maybe she should as hundreds of stupid people keep writing about Paul's lie over and over!!! Citizens are being brainwashed by the president. Time to wake up and send him back to where he belongs!!!
Go Linda!!!
Linda, stop posting as Joe (or vice versa). People do that all the time on these boards and its easy to figure out. Don't worry someone else will surely come along and agree with you eventually. There are all types around here.
Linda, the national debt is $16 trillion. The deficit is probably around $1.2 trillion. If the Bush tax cuts had never happened, what would the deficit be now? Clinton left Bush a big surplus and Bush squandered it and left the economy in shambles, which is why there is a deficit now. Under Obama, federal gov't spending has increased by 2.4 percent, I believe, per year, the smallest increase since Truman.
Bill, I endorse your checking on Ryan and releasing the facts.
But you are being to judgmental. Ryan ran that race 20 years ago and is not in the running community. He was asked about it on the spot and had not thought about it for years.
Didn't President Obama say that there are 57 states in the US; plus many other lies like when he said he just met Bill Ayers casually on the street? He actually served with Ayers in several organizations and his senate kickoff was in Ayer's home!
Obama's lies are much worse than a mistatement about a 20-year old event. Ryan is not you and does not take running as seriously as you or I (who began running i9n my 40s and set a PR of 3:23:45 in NY in 1983 at age 51. I am 89 now.)
So please reconsider and give Ryan a break.

Sorry for the typo. I am 80 now.

I'd be far more worried about Obama's pot and crack smoking activities than Paul Ryan's marathon exaggerations. Also, let's get copies of Barry's transcripts so we all can understand how this Manchurian Candidate got into Harvard with weak grades.
jjjjj,
Your Obama spending figures are fictitious. For example Obama's budget increased from $3.1 trillion in 2009 to $3.6 trillion in 2010, or 16%. -- Wikipedia

Do you want a thread about your errors?
Ryan was confused. He though he was asked about President Obama’s undergraduate GPA. Under 3.0. Something like 2.55. And, Obama still got into Harvard Law! Just think, under that scenario Al Gore should have qualified for Boston with his 5 hour marathon time.
Why don’t we ask President Obama about why he never started on his high school basketball team but claims to be a good player? I’m sure his bank executive grandmother knew why.
Dear Bill...I am 67 years old & have been reading with interest the "fact-finding" controversey that your innocent question has raised about the integrity of the 2012 Vice-Presidential candidate & the response that he gave to the lady reporter on "Face the Nation"..."that was 22 years ago & I 'forgot' what a great time was considered. I started playing golf when I was 13 years old & by the time I was in my late teens & early 20's; I was able to shoot in the mid to upper 60's & I KNEW THAT WAS A GREAT SCORE!!! Even today @ 67 years old, I STILL KNOW THAT IS A GREAT SCORE even though I can hardly break 90 anymore!!! I am not a Republican or a Democrat; however, I DO think that the person running for the 2nd highest office in this great country SHOULD BE HELD TO A LITTLE HIGHER STANDARD OF HONESTY!!! T.R.
I can't defend Ryan, but how can you seriously skip over all of Barry Chooma Bong's lies - the guy is nothing more than a walking Big Lie - & make a fuss over Ryan's lie about a marathon? WTF is wrong with you people? You call out Ryan on integrity but give Barry a pass? WTF???
Obama wins on integrity because he does not make stuff up all the time, like Ryan. Did you listen to Ryan's convention speech? The marathon lie is sticking because it meshes well with what we have all seen of Ryan. The fact checkers went crazy after his convention speech. He is an inveterate liar. We all know that Obama's run the cleanest administration in decades, if not in American history. Btw, he never claimed never to have smoked dope.
Misspeaking about 57 states once is not lying. Are you that stupid? I was curious about this claim about Obama. So I checked out a website called obamalies. I could not find a single lie on that site's first page. And to not fulfill a campaign promise is not a lie when you have to get lots of other people to go along with you and sometimes they will not. I'm old enough to remember the constant scandals of the Reagan administration, some of them enormous, like Iran Contra. This presidency has had the fewest scandals of any in memory, and those few things the right has dredged up have been non stories, e.g. someone vaguely connected to the White House with some quasi left wing comments.
Percentage increase? Look at actual dollars to get a good idea.
Obama will have spent $15 trillion in a period he brought in$10 million.
After 8 years Bush spent $1.2 trillion more than he brought in.
Yes, the stimulus happened in his first year and auto bailouts but after that it's Solyndra and a lot of dubious orojects unless they shot bin laden with a bunch of Hope Diamonds.
or do cocaine!

thanks for providing yet another example of the sheer depth of stupidity so prevalent among Americans today. Chooma Bong is nothing more than a corrupt banana republic goon. His admin is as clean as any other Chicagoland crime syndicate.
You're a fu#king idiot.
Ah, the neverending story. Veteran sports journalist Bill Gifford adds the next chapter:
Notable tidbit: Ryan claims to be in the 6-8% body fat range. As the piece notes, "...that would make him even leaner than [P90X founder Tony] Horton himself, who porks out at a robust 9 percent body fat, according to a recent Men’s Health profile."
