I say no, except for very rare occasions when he's been accidentally right, or stating policy, which he can do truthfully, but even it is lies.

If the sun was shining and he said the sun was shining, he wouldn't be lying there, but that's just one of those things you can't lie about.

But it seems like they lie about EVERYTHING, and not even well. They're lousy liars, and they lie so constantly that no one believes them anymore about anything.

Remember how they wailed about Clinton and Gore and what big fat liars they were?

2. Yes. I saw a clip a few years ago,,,,,
when he said that he didn't think of Bin Laden much and that capturing him was "not important".

:wtf:

3. It's called "projection" and it's what mentally ill people with
no insight into their own problems and no empathy for other folks do. It means they take all the horrible things they don't like about themselves, all the horrible things they say and do, and project those things onto other people.

In other words, if some GOP mouthpiece starts yelling about Democrats organizing pedophile rings, passing secrets to Al Qaeda during middle east junkets, or any other heinous thing, you can be sure the top GOP has been doing just that.

It's very instructive, you see, listening to the outrageous lies they tell about Democrats. It's how we know exactly what they have been up to. They are compelled to tell us because they are compelled to blame us first to deflect their own guilt. They were compelled to call Clinton and Gore liars because their own lying was pathological and nonstop.

And if they told me the sun was shining, I really would have to go outside to look.

5. His ego still seems to be center stage. I am right you are wrong.
He seems to say lots of things but stays on track on that.

6. It appears that he is
a son of former president G Bush and his wife BABs,

that he is married to Laura Bush,

that he has twin daughters who are seldom seen,

and he currently has a Scottie dog named Barney.

That's about it as far as we can deduce as true.

7. I say yes, "This is an impressive crowd the haves and the have mores
Some call you the elites, I call you my base" GW Bush at a puke fund raiser. Just goes to show he can speak truth when enough money is around that he thinks he can get his hands on.

15. He said he was a uniter...and we all have united to hate him...
He has said it would be easy for him to be a dictator...I think he thinks that's true.

16. I Agree
He lies even when there is no reason to lie. It is just who he is.
