Obama's ability to lie with a straight face

The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson
● President Obama gave a speech last night on healthcare. At one point, Congressman Joe Wilson yelled out during the speech, “You Lie!” Until then, the speech was just normal, and by normal I mean boring. It caused a commotion. All the rest of the politicians were like, “How does he know?”

Rhetoric And Fraud By Thomas Sowell
...Charlatan-in-Chief, Barack Obama, whose speech to a joint session of Congress was both a masterpiece of rhetoric and a shameless fraud. To tell us, with a straight face, that he can insure millions more people without adding to the already skyrocketing deficit, is world-class chutzpa and an insult to anyone's intelligence. To do so after an analysis by the Congressional Budget Office has already showed this to be impossible reveals the depths of moral bankruptcy behind the glittering words.
...government-run medical care in the United States can be expected to produce what government-run medical care in Canada, Britain, and other countries has produced-- delays of weeks or months to get many treatments, not to mention arbitrary rationing decisions by bureaucrats....no one's words have been more repeatedly the direct opposite of his deeds-- whether talking about how his election campaign would be financed, how he would not rush legislation through Congress, or how his administration was not going to go after CIA agents for their past efforts to extract information from captured terrorists. President Obama has also declared emphatically that he will not interfere in the internal affairs of other nations-- while telling the Israelis where they can and cannot build settlements and telling the Hondurans whom they should and should not choose to be their president.
One of the secrets of being a glib talker is not getting hung up over whether what you are saying is true, and instead giving your full attention to what is required by the audience and the circumstances of the moment, without letting facts get in your way and cramp your style. Obama has mastered that art.
Con men...their job is not to use facts to convince skeptics but to use words to help the gullible to believe what they want to believe. ...the promise of something for nothing. That is the core of Barack Obama's medical care plan....The federal government can drive out private insurance the same way that local politicians have driven out private municipal transit and replaced it with government-run transit systems. Barack Obama's insistence that various dangerous policies are not in the legislation he proposes sounds good but means nothing...When there are "advisory" panels on what treatments to approve and the White House's existing medical advisor has complained of Americans' "over-utilization" of medical care, what does it take to connect the dots?
