How do you know if a politician is lying?

“….his mouth is open”

“The overwhelming evidence suggests that FDR lied about Pearl Harbor, JFK lied about the Cuban Missile Crisis, Nixon lied about Watergate, Reagan lied about Iran-Contra, Clinton lied about Monica Lewinsky, George W. Bush lied about Iraqi weapons of mass destruction, and that Obama is lying about Fast and Furious.”

The truth, however, always sets you free. It’s a also a known fact that most people want neither freedom or truth. “Tell me lies, tell me sweet little lies”, they say. And the politicians are only so happy to oblige.
