Three Famous Democrats from History

"The only thing we have to fear is fear itself." ~Franklin D. Roosevelt (1933)

"The buck stops here." ~Harry S. Truman (1959)

"Ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for your country." ~John F. Kennedy  (1961)

Three More From Recent History

"It depends what your definition of 'is' is?'' ~Bill Clinton (1998)

"If you like you doctor, you will be able to keep your doctor.  PERIOD" ~Barack Obama (2009)

"You have a business. You didn't build that. Someone else made that happen" ~Barack Obama (2012)  

"What difference, at this point, what difference does it make?" (re: Benghazi) ~Hillary Clinton (2013) 

 

Obama knew he was lying when he repeatedly said you could keep your doctor.  They decided to stay with the lie once it was confirmed as such, since the phrase played so well in the stump speeches.

Thanks for sharing this video my friend :)

It guess politicians lie a lot because they now they can get away with it most of the time. If they get caught? Easy! Lie even more. The Clintons are pathological liars, but I guess most people are naive and take people at face value. Trust is the most important asset in any civilization. And the brave people that dig into the Clinton web of lies, sometimes die abruptly from strange causes.

I'd like to agree with you, but this is blockchain and their tentacles go deep. I enjoy breathing too much!!

So I won't say anything about lying.

Now corruption - actual provable corruption that netted them $200 Million after they claimed they left the Whitehouse broke. Provable corruption right out in the open and no one from the media went after that as it was occurring?

Oops. You got me started. Time to wrap or else I'll just keep pounding the crap out of my keyboard for paragraphs and paragraphs, due to frustration over MSM gross incompetence.

STEEM On!!

wonderful photography~~~ @davebrewer

yeah you will be able to keep your doctor with a 700$ a month premium and they continue to rise, obamacare is failing. We need attournys to stop running this country because they milk it for corrupt dollars. Glad we have a business man running this country now

Thanks for reading and voting. I agree with you, which may have snuck out as obvious in the post, LOL

STEEM On !!

The only thing we have to fear is fear itself. This is my favorite quote. And my favorite USA former president :-)

Democrats from the first half of last century had more backbone and understanding of the meaning behind "American values"; than we see in 50% of the Republicans today.

They would not have had any tolerance for the snowflake BS behavior we see in too many places today.

STEEM On !!

I still cringe at the Joe the Plumber dialogue. The limp wristed castro loving idiot with ears who never had a job in his life, with his manicure, told Joe, with his dirty bloody knuckles, he didn't earn that.... I feel sick thinking about it. He really thinks people become successful because streets....

After you get a diversity entrance into Harvard, many start to think their own poop doesn't smell

I'm not sure how I missed this , this morning Dave .

We finally have a business minded individual that is leading us , which in my opinion , will be better for America .

Steem on (:

Agreed. Bill Shakespeare had a good plan for all the lawyers

interesting post bro

In my opinion, Obama and Clinton have always lied.

Sorry to have to point out the error in your reply.

You are reporting a fact, not an opinion.

Which is sad for the US.

Hopefully we can recover and the republic is not list

Good post # its please to hear when they promised but the worse is half of what they promised during their campaign won't be implemented, #politics with it political pools

trump is another liar...he consistently contradicts everything he says.as jeff berwick says.

i enjoyed the sense of humour this post has nice share.

that's humour only as he want to keep it at any cost hahaha

Obamacare was a sham, and killary hilton is a fake, that is why they are known as "demorats"

This is a great post. I think with Obama you could probably have a new quote everyday during his presidency. He used to always say our military was the strongest it has ever been, while cutting more than 60,000 service members. Go figure.
