Litany of Lies

There are so many, I doubt I can list them all.  Bald-faced lies, every one.

Abortion doesn't kill a baby; it just removes a small mass of tissue that has the potential of becoming a baby.

The immigration bill has the strongest border security provisions in history.

11 million hispanics living in the United States illegally must "come out of the shadows" and be given legal status to improve the economy.

Voter ID laws are about denying minorities their rights to vote.  (Only not a lie if they mean the laws stop illegal immigrants, felons, dead people, and people who moved away from voting)

The IRS targeting of conservative groups was not politically motivated.

Republicans hate blacks, hispanics, gays, union workers, bureaucrats, single mothers, welfare recipients.

The Republican War on Women is about denying women their right to basic preventative health care.

Obamacare will lower medical costs for Americans by an average of $2,500 per year.

Opposition to Gay Marriage seeks to deny homosexuals the right to love whomever they choose.

35 percent is an unfairly low tax rate.  39 percent still isn't high enough, but it's more fair than 35.

Deficits and debt are no cause for concern.

Government doesn't spend enough - if they just spend another trillion per year, all of America's economic problems will be solved.

The Arab Spring was a great thing, putting the "moderate" Muslim Brotherhood in charge.

Christians and Tea Party members are a higher terrorism risk in America than Islamist radicals.

Under the control of the Federal Government, General Motors has become a huge success!

Global Warming skeptics are members of the Flat Earth Society.

The Keystone Pipeline is an environmental disaster waiting to happen.

The Coal Industry must be destroyed in order to save the planet.

Drilling oil wells in Alaska will endanger the Caribou.

Violent crime can be eliminated if only guns are banned.

Planned Parenthood provides essential services for Women's health.

The Benghazi massacre happened because of a spontaneous protest over an obscure video insulting to the Prophet Mohammed.

Nobody ordered the commandos to stand down just as they were ready to deploy on a Benghazi rescue mission.

Hillary Clinton did not lie to Congress when she said she knew nothing about the Benghazi events.

Eric Holder knew nothing about Fast & Furious or the unlawful surveillance on AP and Fox or the request for a warrant to surveil Fox's reporter based on allegations that he was a co-conspirator in a criminal scheme.

George Zimmerman is on trial for second-degree murder because he racially profiled then killed Trayvon Martin for no legitimate reason.

Is anyone in Washington even aware that there is such a thing as truth?  Lies have become second nature to Senators and the Administration especially.
