48. Obama lies as much as Hillary -- about more important things.
Obama was asked how much Rezko contributed to his campaign. So he checked his records and checked with his staff and came back with a figure around $80,000. But that was just his FIRST answer.

Time goes by, and someone asks Obama the same question -- in light of new news about more Rezko involvement in Obama's life. Okay, he says, I was wrong. The real figure is more like $150,000.

Time goes by and more info comes out and Obama is asked the same question yet again. This time he sees he's caught and decides to tell the truth. The real figure (now) is closer to $250,000.

Fair is fair. If Hillary lied about being shot at in Bosnia, then Obama lied on several occasions about how much his favorite crook gave to his campaign. The only difference between the lies is that Hillary's shows a silly attempt at self-aggrandizment, while Obama's shows real dishonesty as a public servant.
