It is telling, and what it tells us, is that the majority of the media gave Obama a pass because they were in love with him. No one questioned anything that anyone in the administration said, because they were in the tank for him.Pls. pull up some of this Ernest's lies so we can discuss.

The guy misspoke and admitted it. Obama said on tape that there re 57 states in the US. You have a camera in your face all the time, you will misstate things.
Yes, but how many times did you bring it up? That was the 1st time I recall you saying it was a mistatement.

How do you know Spicer lied? How do you know he wasn't just wrong?

Boy you must have been really concerned when Obama said there were 57 states...

"Yes, but how many times did you bring it up? That was the 1st time I recall you saying it was a mistatement."

Absolutely incorrect. I could care less that Obama said that, and I stated that many times. Anyone will mis-speak when there is a camera in their face all the time, it means nothing. It means nothing when Democrats make innocent mis-statements, it means nothing when conservatives do it. Fair enough?

What matters is what they do, and their policy. Not an obscure, meaningless error of language.

Obama gave me plenty of awful policy to hold him accountable for, and plenty of reprehensible things that he did. I didn't need to nit-pick over meaningless statements like 57 states.

You are going to have a long, long 4 years if you can't ignore this insignificant garbage.

Boy you must have been really concerned when Obama said there were 57 states...No, I recognized it as what it was - a mistatement. And when you commented on it I always stated that (most) people recognized it as a mistatement.

"Yes, but how many times did you bring it up? That was the 1st time I recall you saying it was a mistatement."

Absolutely incorrectNo, you (and Scott) brought it up a few times. . I could care less that Obama said that, and I stated that many times. Anyone will mis-speak when there is a camera in their face all the time, it means nothing. It means nothing when Democrats make innocent mis-statements, it means nothing when conservatives do it. Fair enough?Totally agree w/that.

I think I and most people have already ignored a lot of things that President Trump said (and Spicer)- including some fairly significant things.
