Folks Are Catching On to Obama

It took a while to sink in, but even lofos are paying attention
According to a new Fox News poll, 37 percent of registered voters believe Obama lies “most of the time” on “important matters,” while 24 percent said he lies “some of the time.” Twenty percent responded that he lies “only now and then” and just 15 percent believe he “never” lies.

Perhaps most surprisingly, 40 percent of self-identified liberals think the president lies “some” or “most” of the time.
