WikiLeaks Exposes Pres. Obama Lied on Hillary Clinton Emails

If you were man enough to recognize and accept reality,
the truth would not be so painful ;-)
 
While he may have known about the server this doesn't prove it. I find it highly unlikely a President takes the time to sit there and hover the cursor over the names to see what the domains of the people are.

I'm plenty man enough to see what is blatantly obvious: You're an angry frustrated partisan hack.

Between these e-mails proving that Obama received communications from Hillary's private e-mail server, the Clinton campaign's panic over Obama's claim that he learned about her private e-mail server at the same time as everyone else, and the fact that he communicated with Hillary's private server under an alias ( Obama used a pseudonym while emailing Hillary Clinton while she was at the US State Department - Business Insider ), it's extremely probable he knew about it and lied.

Again, with respect to the title subject, damning evidence, no surprises. Jordan offers a pretty through breakdown of recent Wikileaks releases and their implications. The video carries on after that for reasons that are beyond me, but I could not find a more concise version (though the majority of the following dissection is quite good).

Also yes, to preempt the obvious, I agree, he should put some distance between himself and the camera.

I had this discussion with my mom today. He is a liar. This doesn't prove anything we didn't know before. It isn't illegal to lie. It just proves, one more time, that he is a liar.

I didn't claim it was illegal; nor is it a surprise/revelatory. It is however disappointing to have further evidence of the man's duplicity over matters of importance.

Dude, I am not disagreeing with you. I am sad that it has come to the point where we just have to accept that the president is a liar because s good portion of the public is perfectly fine with that.

Unfortunately, I think the public has been acclimatized to this unacceptable behaviour for quite some time now.

I agree totally.
How Lying Affects The Human Brain: Telling Lies Desensitizes Amygdala To Dishonesty; Increases Chances Of Being A Pathological Liar
"When we lie for personal gain, our amygdala produces a negative feeling that limits the extent to which we are prepared to lie," said Dr. Tali Sharot, senior author of the study, director of the Affective Brain Lab at the University College of London and a faculty member of the department of Experimental Psychology, in a statement.

However, as we continue to lie, this response fades, which may lead to a “slippery slope” where small acts of dishonesty can evolve into more significant lies. In other words, lies breed lies as the brain gets desensitized to dishonesty.

This is particularly troubling since the average American tells one to two lies a day. Those who tend to be insecure or have an anxious or avoidant attachment style are more likely to be dishonest to avoid being criticized, rejected, or left with less than someone else has, according to a 2010 study. Also, those who believe lying will give them monetary or social recognition are more likely to continue being dishonest.

I think the Clinton campaign uses it as a tool.

Interesting article; though it comes about as much as a surprise as these subject wikileaks; the human mind has always been incredibly plastic and adaptive, shaping to what it knows.

As to Clinton's campaign utilizing falsehood, both campaigns do extensively. There are no honest players this election; the only one in the entire electoral process was wrongfully cheated out of his nomination.
