So when liberals lie it's strategic but when conservatives lie it's principled? That's pretty slick...
I doubt Obama is lying about the insurance issue. He was likely told the vast majority of people wouldn't be impacted and those who were would likely end up with a better deal anyway...which is how it appears to be playing out.
I also doubt Obama is any generally more/less honest than other recent presidents. The big difference is that he has a motivated hate machine and the Internet has matured to the point where information access and misinformation campaigns are cheap and effective. Clinton and Bush certainly suffered from some of this but nothing like we're seeing today.
