You can only vote for one and it would be nice if it came with an explanation.
 
Tie between Cruz and Pelosi. I would explain, but I like to think that both are obvious.

You'll know where the partisan ideologues are when they say "well why did you say ____", but the other choice is fine.

No politician has ever spoken to me...as I recall...
I WILL NOT go by what others say.
Even "honesty" needs an in depth definition...
I listen NOT to campaign pledges and propaganda.
 
Clearly obama; I don't believe for a moment he does not know the many things he claims to be ignorant about. This man is a total failure and complete lair and thief.

Politician and dishonesty go together like two peas on a pod. Which one is the most dishonest? It all probably boils down to one's own personal political point of view. There is only one on that list I would trust or put my faith in and that would be Christie. But it is a long way between Georgia and New Jersey so I am saying that without first hand knowledge.

Yeah I didn't think he deserved all the criticism for taking care of his state after the hurricane and having to work with Obama to do it. If he had been my governor I would have been upset if he didn't.

I don't find Obama as much dishonest as I do incompetent. I fully believe that he was convinced that he was helping the masses with the PPACA. This doesn't make him disingenuous as it does a complete and total moron.

Exactly, mine too.
 
all of the above
 
Bill and Hillary
 
Hell if I know, haven't kept count of each lie and truth and the weight of each. Everybody lies, so no one is completely honest.
 
I voted President Obama.

I noted the argument made earlier in the thread about his "incompetence".

You don't graduate from Columbia College or Harvard Law School and then go on to win the presidency through incompetence.

Well, maybe if your father is a former Director of Central Intelligence and himself once served as President of the United States you'd have a leg up, but not when your dad is a dead Kenya economist.

President Obama knows what's going on, especially given the exponential explosion of growth in the American intelligence community following 9/11.

He just likes to tell us he doesn't.

Shame is, better than half of America is dumb and gullible enough to believe him.

Now, mind you, I don't think this is due to any special degree of dishonesty of malevolence on President Obama's part.

I think it's more a consequence of his office.

The higher your star rises the more you become responsible for, the more you're briefed in on, the more opportunity you have to lie.

I don't think President Obama is any more dishonest than past presidents, nor do I think anyone on the OP's list would be any more honest if given the job of the President.
 
but I have not yet had the opportunity to ask any of them if these pants make me look fat.
 
Richard Nixon, but he's dead now.

Other than that I'd say Mitt Romney. Ran away from his record to get the nomination, and promised to repeal what was basically HIS healthcare reform.
 
I always stop reading at the words "I voted for Obama."

What else could the post have to say that would be of interest?

The pants don't make you look fat, it's the fact that you weigh 400 pounds.

People that voted for Obama in this poll are saying he's the most dishonest. I thought you'd be all for that.
 
Since he is on record as saying this isn't what he wanted - and we'll spend 10-20 years getting to that - I find him to be completely dishonest and a liar. I also don't believe he is as incompetent as many want to think. Do you really think today he doesn't know what happened in Benghazi - yet he and his minions hide witnesses. You really don't think he and his minions know - by the hour - how many people are signed up for obamacare? Seriously? He lies to us and his admin lies to us everytime they can't answer that very simple question.

Cruz's recent act of mega-dumbassery makes him the most recent mega-stupid, innit? How could he not be? But he is new at being stupid on a national level, as is Rand Paul, who is dumber than a bag of frogs.

I cannot stand Pelosi, but, much to the detriment of the country, she has been smart enough to do something Cruz and Rand Paul will never accomplish and that is to remain in office for decades.
 
The one I think is the most dishonest on the list is probably the one person on the list I wouldn't mind having a beer with. I think some of the others actually believe some of the crap they say.

Joe Biden.
 
Obama.

From 2008 it's been nothing but promises and hope you can believe in and nothing but lies instead.
 
Boehner, he's such an asshole.

It helps that she's running where she runs. You don't get elected in an ultra-liberal district by being something other than ultra-liberal.
