Bachmann, Perry lie a LOT

Michele Bachmann HPV: More Factual Gaffes Than Any Other Republican Candidate - International Business Times

But does that matter? Does anybody care if your candidate has an overwhelming tendency to lie?

In my estimation, if they're lying about eff-all everything else, then their campaign promises are probably meaningless. And before you go getting all RWNJ on me, check Obama's record.

By comparison,

Of the 35 Bachmann statements that PolitiFact.com had vetted as of Friday, only 14 percent were rated true or mostly true. Nine percent were rated "half true," and 77 percent -- more than three-quarters -- were rated mostly false, false or "pants on fire," a category reserved for assertions that are not only inaccurate but "ridiculous," according to the editors of the Web site.

Rick Perry scored better than Bachmann, but still very poorly. PolitiFact.com vetted 81 statements by the Texas governor and found that 23 percent were true or mostly true, 27 percent were "half true," and 49 percent were mostly false, false or "pants on fire." Mitt Romney (48 percent true, 35 percent false) and Ron Paul (55 percent true, 23 percent false) had more respectable numbers, though by no means excellent.

Bachmann blames long hours on the campaign trail -- "When you speak six times a day, slip-ups can occur," she said in August -- but even among her peers, she stands out. A 77 percent inaccuracy rating is nothing short of appalling.

Together they lie less than obamaturd does. Libtards doen't care if obamaturd lies, and he actually does. Idiots.

Too funny. I post the thread, find this article.

Michele Bachmann Errors | Bachmann HPV | Video | Mediaite

Ron Carey had this to say;

Well, Michele is very impulsive from a personality standpoint and, to her credit, she reads an awful lot of information, but sometimes I’m afraid that she reads maybe 80 or 90 percent and leaves out or forgets the ten or 20 percent that can change the outcome, so her impulsive nature coupled with the fact that she sometimes doesn’t digest information as carefully as she should leads to these kinds of impulsive statements that sometimes are just off the mark enough that it makes her into more of a provocative, controversial figure.
He continued:

One of the challenges I’ve found with working with Michele, and it’s consistent with other people who have worked with her, is the fact that she doesn’t use her staff well. She’s pretty much independent and does her own research. She’ll be out there on the stump, preparing her remarks and speaking off the cuff with no staff intervention or involvement whatsoever, so it’s really difficult to prep her and help her kind of back-check before she goes out speaking because she will be out there speaking and you’ll say, “Where did this come from?” and it’s something that she maybe heard on TV.

Oh, yeah; that's what we need. An impulsive CIC who doesn't bother with all the facts.

Just like obamaturd. Only obamaturd si 100% worse.

Didnt seem to bother Democrats when they elected Obama. The primary should prove interesting.

Why don't you people just address the post??? Stop always turning it around to discuss the Dems. If you want to discuss that you think they lie, start another thread. That's not what this one is about.

They can't. It's some sort of mental disconnect.

It is the libtards that are mental. Obamaturd lies everytime he opens his mouth and you guys believe every word he says. Idiots.

Why? Since when is coloring within the lines important to you?

Must you always be an ass????

 

[Rinata]

Wow...the defense to them two beingliars is...obama this or dems that or worse, so what.

Wow.

Here is the thing. We are so going to kick your collective asses in 2012 and there is nothing you can do about it.

Neener neener...lol

and if your side does not kick ass?....then what?.....

But they will, Harry, they will!!!!

Show that to be true!!! What has he lied about??

 

[mudwhistle]

I don't know whether she lies or is just plain stupid

How do you tell?

And on the other hand, one does not necessarily negate the other. She could be both.

Obama does some really stupid things but I don't call him stupid. You, on the other hand, eventually go back to the usual "He/She's so stupid" routine. Bush had a higher GPA then your last two Presidential candidates and yet you feel he's the dummy. Same thing with Bachmann (or any Republican for that matter). She's a better lawyer then Obama was. Obama was good at acting like one, Bachmann actually did it for awhile.

The problem with you folks is you can't stop regressing into this absurdly repetitive attack on the intelligence of Conservatives.

We're not the ones that keep electing these charlatans. How stupid do you have to be to keep electing folks that you know are lying to us???

Oh, that's right. They all lie.

Well, a poor excuse is better then no excuse.

You don't have to settle for this crap but your cynical natures make it easy to.

Right around the B-Boob level of stupidity.

i agreed with you until here......

so are you saying the Republicans who are elected are somehow telling us the truth?.....

 

[blastoff]

That's different, it's ok for democrats to do it because they love babies. Once they're a couple yrs old of course.

The only love them once they're born.

The little being's couple of minutes of terror spent alive, tortured in horrendous pain of being stabbed in his head's back as his only recollection of being here.

That's heart-rending and sad; that's no lie.

It's a much better portrayal in video. Then you get to see the little arms and legs jerking and twitching as the skull is pierced and its brains scrambled around while being sucked out.

obama lies. A LOT, so?

and for the record her remark was stupid, and shes on a trajectory to no where....go focus on palin...:LOL:

Yep. Bachman is shooting herself in the foot just about everytime she opens her mouth.

All politicians lie. Especially those running for office.

Its just that some of them lie a little better than others. LOL

Everything. Healthcare, the stimulus and unemployment, his birth certificate. He has been proven a liar.

More. Of course. What with her still being alive, and having media access.

Through The Looking Glass: Bachmann’s Long History Of Strange Statements | Election 2012

The national media is now starting to figure something out: Michele Bachmann says a lot of things that aren’t just kind of crazy, but manifestly false. Of course, this is in no way news to the folks here at TPM, or to our readers — we’ve been keeping track of her for quite some time.

Bachmann, of course, has been raked over the coals for her claim, as part of an attack on Rick Perry for issuing an executive order that young girls in Texas be vaccinated against the sexually-transmitted disease HPV, that a woman told her after this week’s Republican debate that the HPV vaccine had caused her daughter to develop mental retardation. This statement helped to spread long-standing myths that vaccines cause retardation or autism in some children, an idea that the medical profession has worked very hard to dispel.

Bachmann has been slammed for this statement not only by pediatricians, and the counter-attacking Rick Perry, but also by the likes of Rush Limbaugh and her own former campaign manager Ed Rollins. And now, Bachmann has walked back the retardation claims, while continuing to hammer Perry on the vaccination issue itself.

Actually Cass Sustein, Obama's regulatory czar wrote a book on the subject and called it "Availability Cascades". He stated if you plant a story and assure it's repeated often enough it becomes common-knowledge.....even if it's false.

Then you use what he called "non-governmental" experts on blogs and message-boards to give it legitimacy.
