Video: Obama lies his face off; says Fast and Furious began under Bush Administration

Was this lie by Barack Obama intended to get people to ignore his bald-faced lies about what prompted the U.S. Embassy attack in Benghazi on 9/11?

This is so over-the-top, it's the only thing I can come up with.

During his interview with Jorge Ramos of Univision this week, Obama said that Fast and Furious was started under the Bush administration. You'd be hard-pressed to find instances of me being a Bush-defender but come on.

Fast and Furious was completely and entirely implemented during the Obama administration.

Bald. Faced. Lie.

Now, let's take a short trip back in time, shall we? Here is an exchange between U.S. Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) and Attorney General Eric Holder on November 8, 2011. Note that Holder states clearly that Wide Receiver was started under the Bush administration while Fast and Furious was started under the Obama administration.

When boxed into a corner, Holder even says he has not 'tried to equate' Fast and Furious with Wide Receiver.



So did Barack Obama lie to Jorge Ramos or did Eric Holder commit perjury?
