How much do Americans trust President Obama? Not much, according to a Fox News poll.
Sixty-one percent of respondents in the poll released Thursday said Obama lies at least some of the time on important issues. An additional 20 percent said he lies every now and then.
Only 15 percent believe the president is completely truthful.
Predictably, Republicans were more likely to believe Obama is a liar, with 85 percent saying he lies some or most of the time. Thirty-one percent of Democrats said the president is always truthful.
What’s interesting is that independents were slightly more likely to believe Obama lies at least some of the time — 63 percent, compared with 61 percent for the total sample.
The April 13-15 poll of 1,012 registered voters had a margin of error of plus or minus 3 percentage points. Democrats were 39 percent of the sample, Republicans 38 percent and independents 20 percent.
Some of us know he lies about 100% of the time.
Dr.J.
I’m quite convinced that Jarrett has planned it that way.
He’s an idiot who does what he’s told. She hates him and resents him, but uses him. She thinks she should have been President. She’s given O. the shovel, and he’s dugging the hole — she knows he’ll just fall in, and she’ll stand there saying, “Oh no, what happened? I’m so sad,” . . . While kicking dirt on top of him.
They didn’t ask me. That should push the percentage up a bit more.
The other 40% only see him golfing when he isn’t talking
Fox News Poll ?? About as reliable as an MSNBC poll.
BTW I heard pretty boy Sean is being replaced by Meghan–smart move!
I’ve come to the point that I seldom open obviously stupid and dishonest threads at all here because they are simply so obviously stupid and dishonest and the expected rebuttals will of course be obviously stupid and dishonest as well.. But there’s this certain air that reeks of Dr John’s threads that you somehow have to open it just to prove that your hunch was correct that it was Dr John.
And of course we find a loaded bias and bigoted question from an obvious bias and bigoted source which in the obvious bias and bigoted mind of Dr John validates, well, uh, something.
@Ronald J. Ward:
Is that a poem?
@Ronald J. Ward: So, let me make sure I understand your view correctly:
Is it your contention that he has NOT lied? Or that the veracity of the poll is in question because there are still 39% that are not aware of his lies?
The dr. John hate is a straw man. He posted a Washington Examiner poll and article. You can’t possibly rebut this poll about this incompetent pathological liar. Deflect we much. Typical troll.

Obamacare will decrease the cost of insurance for the average family of 4 by $2500
Obamacare will decrease the cost of medical care.
The attack on the Ambassador in Benghazi was the result of a spontaneous protest against a video.
IRS targetting of conservatives is a bonus scandal.
Obamacare will be good for the economy. (Then why postpone employer mandate until after elections?)
The only time Obama and his acolytes aren’t lying is when their mouths are closed.
And only liars use the race card against those who call Obama on his lying.
@Pete: “The only time Obama and his acolytes aren’t lying is when their mouths are closed.” Then they are writing lies.
@Bill Burris: and the trolls here keep repeating them over and over and over!
@Randy: Which is why everyone should ignore the trolls and their allies. Let them fade away to their own fantasy land.
It would be interesting to know:
– Exactly who the people are that claim he is ‘always’ truthful.
– Exactly who the people are that claim he lies now and again (and what they think he lies about).
That would be a side show….
@Kraken#6 – On cue. You are funny! Thanks for the laugh!
@Rich Wheeler:
That can’t be true, there is no such thing as an MSNBC poll. Only a propaganda statement.
I haven’t heard that but Megan already has a better time slot than Sean. Greta 7 O’Reilly 8 Megan 9 Sean 10 all eastern time. been that way for months.
@Bill: They also didn’t ask me and that pushes it up even more. However I am in the category that is not sure if it can be called lies. I understand it is only a lie if you know the truth and tell something else. I frankly don’t think Zippy has a clue.
@Kraken:
RJW doesn’t have a clue.
Oddly enough, I’ve found that FOX polls have a tendency to tilt slightly left (from 2%-6% points) when compared with Rasmussen and Gallop on the exact same subjects.
Personally, I wouldn’t believe Obama, or most dims for that matter, if they told me the sun came up this morning.
@Bill: Your understanding of my view is obviously contingent on you as I have no control how you choose to interpret it, explain it to others, or the rhetoric you use to twist its meaning.
To clarify (for what that’s worth here), Dr John states that a “poll released Thursday said Obama lies at least some of the time on important issues” but falls short of a coherent argument.
Did your mom lie to you about Santa Claus? Now, if your review my #5 comment with an iota of open mindedness, perhaps you can at least grasp a clue as to what you’re arguing about. If you can’t, I suspect the inability to view it objectively is the culprit.
@Ronald J. Ward:
stupid, dishonest
so biased and bigoted
stupid, dishonest

I see RJW is back with his standard leftist “You’re too stupid to understand what I am saying” pablum.
He’s nothing but a typical Obama Eloi.
Surprise!
60 Percent of the Time, Obama Lies Every Time
