President Pinocchio

"Clinton's an unusually good liar. Unusually good. Do you realize that?" -- Bob Kerrey [D-Neb.], Senator and Chairman of Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee; Esquire, 1996

Some of Clinton's bigger and better ones:

"I want you to listen to me. I'm going to say this again. I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Miss Lewinsky. I never told anybody to lie, not a single time, never. These allegations are false. And I need to go back to work for the American people." - January 26, 1998

The president lied to everyone about the affair. He repeatedly invoked claims of executive and attorney-client privilege, arranged joint-defense agreements, attacked his accusers for exposing the facts. All with one goal in mind: to keep himself from ever having to confess the affair, let alone apologize to the nation for it. -- USA Today editorial 9/10/98

"I worked hard to try to kill him. I authorized a finding for the CIA to kill him. We contracted with people to kill him. I got closer to killing him than anybody has gotten since." - Sept. 24, 2006

The man who was in the Soviet Union demonstrating against the American military during Vietnam, who as President depleted our armed forces, is now - in his own mind- The Defense President.

He criticizes the Bush Administration for not doing enough, proclaims himself the champion of effective military action, and implies none too subtly that the fight against terrorism would go better if we had a Clinton in the White House instead of a Bush.

The bipartisan 9/11 Commission concluded that President Clinton had flatly refused to allow the military or CIA to kill Osama bin Laden. Clinton's instructions were that bin Laden should be taken, if at all, alive not dead. CIA officials reported that this instruction cut the chance of success in half.

"This isn't mere spin. It's full-scale invention." -- Ronald A. Cass, "Bill Clinton: Play It as It Lies"; September 25, 2006

"'The whole tide of history has shown us that if you lie loud enough and long enough that no matter how ludicrous the lie is people will believe it." -- James Carville, Democratic strategist; United Press International; 8/8/84
