    we are correcting creditability, which is in fact a word, and letting him slide for "loose" instead of lose? lets brush up our correction skills and be proper nazis.

    The biggest failure has yet to be mentioned. The stimulus bill was supposed to keep unemployment from reaching double digits. So either the bill is a failure, or the Obama administration is really bad at making projections.

    Also politifact is stupid. I can't stand how they have a truthometer. Either something is true or it is a lie.

    red feels like we shouldnt have principles like "big tax and spend is bad". instead we should just randomly try stupid things until something works and never be critical of the thing until after it ruined us.

    cant you just give huge government a chance? the republicans sucked with huge government so why not let the democrats try to make the government even larger! surely that will work.

    I guess he does have a point if massive spending and deficits is a sure recipe for failure surely the way to fix that is to spend hundreds of billions more on unfunded entitlement programs.

    What a laugh. :lol:

    Tell me of a President who failed fewer promises. It sure as hell ain't George "Mission Accomplished" Bush . . . or Bill "That Woman" Clinton, or George "Read my lips" Bush, or Ronald "trees cause more pollution than automobiles do" Reagan, or . . .

    I'm not laughing. They all fail. You claimed Obama hasn't failed yet.

    I showed you he has.

    Not at all. Half-truths exist in abundance. The purpose of a half truth is to make something that is really only a belief appear to be knowledge and all politicians are expert at this.

    "I'm a really good driver. In the past thirty years, I have gotten only four speeding tickets". This statement is true, but irrelevant and misleading if the speaker started driving a week ago.

    Or the story about the blind men and an elephant. Each blind man touches a different part of the elephant and reaches a different conclusion about the nature of the elephant; while each man's experience of the elephant is accurate, none of them have a full understanding of the nature of the beast.

    Paradoxes also exist that defy clear categorization as truth or lie. If I say to you that I am always a liar, is my statement true or false?
