"You Lie!": The Evasions, Omissions, Fabrications, Frauds and Outright Falsehoods of Barack Obama

by Jack Cashill

Overview

A devastating catalog of Barack Obama’s numerous evasions, misleading statements and blatant lies, from statements in his national bestseller Dreams from My Father to “You can keep your health plan,” PolitiFact’s 2013 “Lie of the Year.”

During President Obama’s address to Congress in November 2009, Representative Joe Wilson of South Carolina shouted, “You lie!” As Jack Cashill details, the president has been lying about his personal history and his political philosophy from the beginning of his political career. Yet throughout his meteoric rise and the first five years of his presidency, the liberal media turned a blind eye to his numerous evasions, contradictions, misstatements, deceptions, untruths, and outright falsehoods.

It wasn’t until the disastrous Obamacare rollout that the president’s lies caught up with him. Finally, it was impossible even for the mainstream media to ignore the president’s repeated assertions that all Americans could keep their health care plans and family doctors if they so chose. In You Lie! conservative journalist and author Jack Cashill provides a devastating compendium of the president’s false and misleading statements on matters great and small, from the deliberate distortions in his celebrated memoir, Dreams from My Father, to his rise to the White House and his years as president.

Editorial Reviews

Tomorrow, or next year, or sometime later this century, the truth about Barack Obama will trickle out. And when that happens, ‘Barak Obama’ will be exposed as a myth.And Jack Cashill will get the recognition he deserves as the best investigative journalist of our time.

Herbert E. Meyer

Obama is the most brazen liar ever to occupy the White House. Jack Cashill has had the stomach to go through the nauseating record so the usual voices of denial will have a hard time actually denying it.
