Lies, Damn Lies, and Presidential Lies

There has been a bit of a dust up in the last few days in some of the press regarding another Obama lie.  You won't find much in the MSM, but a few are reporting about it.  The subject is ISIS or as Obama calls them, ISIL.  And of course there is only one reason he uses the term ISIL.  The L in ISIL refers to "Levant", a term that refers to the region.  The "S" that most use refers to Syria.  He's clearly trying to deflect attention from them as a specific threat.  Anyway, in his effort to downplay these monsters for what they are, he referred to them as the "junior varsity".  Now that he's under pressure to exert some leadership and act Presidential, he's reinventing facts.  Of course, he'll get away with it pretty easily.  Check out what PoliFact found here.  There is no disputing the lie.  But like I said, no one really cares.  Presidential lies...Something you've got to expect with this guy!

Says his comment about extremists being a JV team "wasn’t specifically referring to" Islamic State.
