You Say Gaffe, I Say LIE… Again.
Maybe he should just concentrate on those staged photo-ops… facts don’t seem to be his forte.

Barack Obama claimed to be a member of the U.S. Senate Banking Committee, which he is not.(CNN) – Responding to an Israeli reporter’s question Wednesday on his commitment to protect the Jewish state, Barack Obama pointed to a bill “we passed” in the U.S. Senate Banking Committee that tightens sanctions and authorizes divestment from Iran. “My committee,” he called it.
Except that he isn’t a member of the Committee on Banking, Housing and Urban Affairs.
“Just this past week, we passed out of the out of the U.S. Senate Banking Committee - which is my committee - a bill to call for divestment from Iran as way of ratcheting up the pressure to ensure that they don’t obtain a nuclear weapon,” Obama said at a press conference in Sderot, Israel.
Perhaps he was thinking that as the presumptive leader of his party, all of the Senate committees are his, as President Lyndon Johnson once quipped, when told he was heading toward the wrong military helicopter, that they all were his.
Who needs lies when you can do this??

This is the scariest thing I’ve learned about in a long time. As a former market researcher, I find it absolutely mind-blowing (literally)….

You would think he would get something like that right. You would also think that he would know that people would call him on it if he got it wrong, and “fudged” a little bit. So, who knows?

I truly believe he thinks we’re all ‘less than’ him and can’t see and hear HIS own lies. Unbelievable!
