Swampy,
The truth doesn't matter. This was just campaign talk. You aren't going to get anyone here acknowledge that even when it is as obviously as this. You would think someone like the President of the United States, who is put on a pedestal for being a master crafter of words would know the difference from a truthful statement and an embellished one? I would argue that he probably did know that was an untruth when he said it, but it was OK to lie because it helped the cause.
Truth for liberal politicians - make that ALL politicians is relative. Most lies are just considered untruths.
On the other hand, if Romney would have said something like this, you know this forum would be over it like a cheap suit.

What part of "free mammogram clinic" is confusing to you?

Well, it seems the Obama part is a piece of his rationale.

Then go read some right wing forums. I look at them on occasion, and there's plenty of cheap suits, and white on rice as well, which you could enjoy. You don't have to keep picking at a scab, you know.

I wouldn't get into a pissing match between Obama and Romney over who tells the most lies.

Umm, no? It has been covered that R/R are both pathological liars. They get away with it because their party is willing to accept nearly any level of the candidates lying, even to the base, to get their candidate in office. Proof that the MSM is not in the Democrats pockets is that the networks do not have a nightly update of http://romneytheliar.blogspot.com

I wasn't aware this was officially a left wing only forum. I seemed obvious for a long time, but thanks for finally clearing it up.
You can't dish it out all the time, sometimes you have have to take it too!

I'm not the one who was complaining about how people here champion Obama, now, am I? If you were all for Romney, I'd probably go find some like-minded people for a pick-me-up instead of pointing out the obvious all the time.
Ask some of the righties on the other side to come help you out once in a while. Because nobody for Obama is going to play pretend just so you won't feel outnumbered.

Is that supposed to goad the participants into adopting more right-leaning views?

Ah, the persecuted conservative. When you can't win on points, complain that the game is rigged.
