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.
