>> You would? That says it all doesn't it? Why would you trust a discredited crook? I wouldn't. That was my point. AFAIK, Obama has told more lies in his few of short years in politics than Nixon did in his entire political career. We don't yet know which were more serious.

Nixon suffered the full criticism of an adversarial press - Obama apparently hand chooses and crafts his own...

He lied about posting bills on the internet and about no lobbyists in his administration: "Sunlight is the greatest disinfectent... No more secrecy... And, when there's a bill that ends up on my desk as president, you the public will have 5 days to look online and find out what's in it before I sign it." Barack Obama On the Campaign Trail June 22, 2007 Manchester, New Hampshire And, September 22, 2008 Green Bay, Wisconsin There's a big fat lie for ya. Where is the porkulus bill on the internet? --------------- Then there's the no lobbyist promise: Obama appointed more than 17 lobbyists after talking big on anti-lobbyist, clean Governance Adrian Nathan Jan. 31, 2009 It is easy to project yourself as a clean politician after making your debut in South Side Chicago with buddies like Rahm Emanuel. US president Obama has appointed more than 17 lobbyists after talking big on anti-lobbyist Governance and rooting corruption out of the American Government. Dreams are dreams. Facts are facts. President Obama is surrounded by corrupt lobbyists ready to sell America cheap. One good silver lining – if Obama Adminsitration’s corruption index is 10, Bush Administration’s was 95. Take the example of the newest exposure of doubletalk from Obama! After calling for clean Governance, he appoints a Treasury Secretary who “forgot” to pay for his ‘business tax’ for years! Tom Daschle, a top lobbyist in Washington, who has amended his U.S. tax forms to pay back taxes with interest, is now Obama’s best choice for America’s chief health official. Daschle, 61, paid more than $140,000 in back taxes and interest on Jan. 2, the New York Times reported, citing unidentified administration officials. The back taxes involved unreported consulting fees, questionable charitable contributions and a car and driver provided by Democratic Party donor Leo Hindery Jr., a founder of the private equity firm InterMedia Advisors, according to a confidential draft report prepared by the Senate Finance Committee, the Washington Post reported. No wonder Obama does not want to prosecute the Bush Administration for their wrong doings! No wonder Obama spent 170 million dollars in inauguration extravaganza when common American families were facing loss of jobs, lack of healthcare, and foreclosures! Would you believe, Obama had to issue 17 waivers on his own rule in less than two weeks for allowing lobbyist enter his Administration and control Governance of America! indiadaily.com
