The Washington Post, the venerable newspaper that has served as a bastion of left-leaning perspectives for decades, has taken Obama to task for his outright lies and has given his claim of keeping one’s insurance four Pinocchios.

In short, even The Washington Post isn’t buying what the president is shoveling.

Glenn Kessler reviewed Obama’s repeated claims and found that they were outright lies. Kessler noted,

“The president’s statements were sweeping and unequivocal — and made both before and after the bill became law. The White House now cites technicalities to avoid admitting that he went too far in his repeated pledge, which, after all, is one of the most famous statements of his presidency.

The president’s promise apparently came with a very large caveat: ‘If you like your health care plan, you’ll be able to keep your health care plan — if we deem it to be adequate.’”

that about sums up the past present and future under liar Obama.

WAPO gave Romney four Pinocchios' for pointing out the truth in June 2012 ...

In essence, Romney has taken a debatable assertion — that government “consumes” 37 percent of the economy — and then hyped it with a nonsensical non sequitur — that the health-care law extends the “reach” of government to 50 percent of the economy.
