LBJ; We were attacked(in the Gulf of Tonkin)
NIXON: Iam not a crook
GHW BUSH: Read my lips-NO NEW TAXES
CLINTON: I did not have sex with that woman
GW BUSH: Iraq has weapons of mass destruction
OBAMA: I will have the most transparent administration in history
The stimulus will fund shovel-ready jobs
I am focused like a lazer on creating jobs
The IRS is not targeting anyone
It was a spontaneous riot about a movie
You did not build that
I will restore trust in the government
I knew nothing about what happened in Benghazi
I will close Guantanamo within the first 6 months of my presidency
If you like it, you can keep your current heathcare plan
You can keep your family doctor
I am not spying on American citizens
It's not my red line-It's the world's red line
Premiums will be lowered by $2500
It's just like shopping at Amazon
We got back every dime we used to rescue the banks and auto companies with interest
Obama Care will be good for America
If elected, I promise not to renew the Patriot Act
If elected I will end the war in Iraq and Afghanistan with the 1st 9 months of my term
And the biggie: "I Barrack Hussein Obama, pledge to preserve,protect and defend the Constitution of the United States of America."

I believe we have a winner

Lol, every president has a list of lies a mile long. Not just Obama. How do you think politicians get to where they are?

I was under the impression banks & auto company's did pay back. That's not the case huh?

The auto companies sort of did. But not in full. I think the same thing happened with banks

Looks like some did and some didn't. Although it does look like they made a small (~5%) profit on the deal. Still not as much as one would like to see on such a huge outlay.
