I vote for a law where politicians that lie so transparently as this should lose their jobs immediately and permanently.

If you can't be trusted with the truth, and let's be honest here, it's policière, you shouldn't be allowed near politics. Or any other job, for that matter, but definitely not politics. .

That does make me think, van you imagine any other job for this guy where he lies his ass off like this, all the time? He'd be fired in a heartbeat.

There are loads of situations and historical events for which "truth" is muddy, but there are many more that aren't. When found out lying, politicians should be called out for it and publicly shamed. Let them forcibly atearfully apologize in front of the nation once, and he second time it's out with you.

We should stop this accepted idea that politicians lie and that that's okay, because politicians be politicians.... NO! It's the one position from which I want to be absolutely certain that I'm hearing the truth
