It’s an old joke, but...

...do you know how to tell when a politician lying?
It’s unfortunate that at a time when our nation is facing enormous challenges, many in Congress have decided to delay critical nominations for political purposes. - President Barak Obama
To read that you would think the Prez appointed Dr. Donald Berwick by recess appointment because of obstruction by Republicans. Except there was none. In fact, Senator Chuck Grassley, a Republican, had asked that a hearing be scheduled to discuss Berwick’s appointment. Senators Harry Reid and Max Baucus, both Democrats, delayed. Why? The last thing the Democrats want before the mid-term elections is discussions of Obamacare and Berwick’s adoration of the British NHS and healthcare rationing [death panels].

Mr. President, your lips are moving.
