blog the same experience that i have but somebody else's version is a platform. the point is that isn't just me and i'm not at all representative. there are millions of us. we respond differently. one of my best friends goes to church and she is a terrible moral person i think she's crazy. that is how most of us feel at the pressure put that pressure at the same and the situations are the same and what we need to prove and we have to prove it is that it's inescapable. is that uniform and all the things are the same across income brackets, across generations and races. we all get the same pressure so my goal is to get as many thousands of us as possible to tell our story so we can say here you go america. here is a microcosm of that. i dare you to -- the problem

when we are done. >> host: the book is "hand to mouth" suborder. i thought it was a really great read. i read it for a few hours. your writing is great. you are able to capture complicated things and beautiful ways but also there are tons of funny parts. maybe you don't read it out loud to your children at bedtime. >> guest: exactly. there's a whole chapter on that. >> host: it's great talking to you. >> guest: you too, thank you so much. ..

>> >> he writes that martin was the drug user. >> bakes for coming out tonight the fact that maybe there is no baseball game tonight [laughter] there is several major positions that believe the second coming will be jackson county misery. [laughter] they may be right than sooner than rethink. five years into the obama presidency here is well

wants callers said of the president'' matt brock a bomb is really the president richard nixon always wanted to be. and to endear times op-ed was harsher still saying president obama weld dash nixon as a rat -- the worst president ever on national security and press freedom and if your friends say this about you imagine your enemies. the question for the day is how is the man who launched his campaign for a the presidency in springfield illinois comparing himself to abraham lincoln? he hunkered down in the white house compared to a tricky dick? some day it went wrong in the process.

[laughter] we are here to explain it tonight and other civil libertarian the longtime village voice contributors said obama does not give us a because he can get away with whatever he wants. there is a little -- a lot of truth to that. is a complex question that i am not sure i know myself totally but and he asked to concentrate of which he helped to write. [laughter] inside joke. [laughter] but we missed the real mark we should be concentrating on his mother.

she was like his father a person who held america in general content. she is an indonesia with no comment when he is the boy ages six through 10 with her second husband and who works in the american oil company. and she shouts back those are not my people. that is the message of obama would pick up as a young boy. but he describes the americans he met in indonesia of an ugly american. can with those monolithic

expectations and american that she'd never liked this country and never did and affected obama early on. he comes back to hawaii as a 10 year-old now because he does not know who he is and how to see define himself? he does not want to be an american from what he is seen and heard and to be african-american he knows more about that they and what he has seen on tv and hawaii there is only three channels. what will he see? maybe the bauds god. so he tells his friends that his father was a prince and grandfather was the chief of an african tribe. but the story worked on the

classmates and almost himself but then he said if he knew when i was telling them was a lie i have constructed from scraps of information picked up from my mother. but to construct identities of marxist aguirre socialist , chicago, harvard cosmopolitan american -- african-american war hero and then a presidential candidate so when she was for my father came obama picked up a nef from his mentor bill ayers to realize the identity chefs and the allies need to ease the transition even the support level gama's biographer it is a mixture of unverifiable fact, recreations, invention

and artful shaping that is a friendly biographer. but david disagreed and said the character creations in the arrangements are not a matter of style or compression but are substantive. and then when he comes to mind and then if you make stuff up then you're allowed to get away with that. and is one of the aides told the new era creditor and biographer with understand why his nature was never discussed. we were said to me that the millions depending on who he

was talking to and then frank marshall davis from his friends at occidental college all low not guilty of lying but as a political strategy. they're not that hard core. and what the problem might be. it was cnn ebola expert so why can't we travel from of west africa to the united states when it would seem like why not?

that was to be the multi-cultural answer. with the creation of liberia we are responsible to have the obligation to open the doors to liberia. but obama is a multi-cultural list. but they cannot say that. but they send out the director of the cdc and is gone trying to explain why it makes sense be taken not use multi-cultural logic that has internal logic so he has to use real people logic so if we don't open a

travel we cannot help them. then what about the charter flights? but that is something charter planes cannot and meghan kelly says they fly and they fly out what is the difference? so what happens so much of that deception is they cannot give a straight answers because they would fall flat now that is part of the reason why he became the person he became his appearance mattered as much growing up thinking talking posturing just like a white liberal anger grew up with a white household and a white mother. but to grow up as an

african-american caveman advantage. it is true but he sounded like he did and so you hear people voice this on occasion people a capable of saying what they mean. it is to get you say what you mean by you're not supposed to be saying it joe biden is the master. [laughter] remember this'' i remember how jesse jackson tucket i mean you have the first mainstream african-american candidate who was articulate and bright and clean and nice looking guy. [laughter] i'm glad i did not say that. i would not be here tonight. end end of a revelation senate majority leader found comfort with a no negro

dialect. i am glad i did not say that. by the time obama emerges a national candidate with those who thought talked like harry reid in joe biden is difficult to calculate your attitudes but the collective media indulgence and black conservatives gatineau's such credit day get the opposite. for those boilermakers they ask them about that. but black liberals to echo what the old white liberals say in the newsrooms. and at has a major factor to make a obamacare who he was

and how he could get away with things and 2007 i am paraphrasing but i am close their what to do a story and given the fact it was "new york times" it was a puff piece but obama would provide no transcripts no friends or relatives and it did not matter. but that is the way they rolled with them. i have to grab a drink. i have a cold but i chose not to take cold medicine.

that had a lot to do with how he became who he was. and it started off right early in the campaign no one else could have gotten away with so 2007 when the candidacy was a long shot he said a fire and the democratic nominee i will aggressively pursue an agreement with the republican nominee to preserve a general election. with a firm position but the problem was once he was nominated george took the lead he was raising much more money so in 2008 he never goes back on his word he says he still supported the idea of public financing

but unfortunately the system was broken and those that are masters of gaming the system not then is taken straight out obamacare does not give a because the king get away with whatever he wants. the first person to call him on that was a skier south carolina congressman joe wilson on the night of september 9, 2009, is still highly popular and spoke spirit of the to a joint session of contract -- congress in the air was what he would call the powerball. but among the lions was this one nothing in his plan will require you or your employer to change the coverage or

the doctor you have. let me repeat this nothing in your plan requires you to change what you have. at the time of the said this he may have thought it was true. but yet i went to check the record and within two days of that announcement, there were serious dissent in major publication sank that is impossible. you cannot get away with this. the first time we give him a pass but the next 45? no pass. but that is not what has joe wilson while the. when obama had a claim of the proposed health care system would insure legal immigrants that is when wilson and yelled "you lie!" there is an exclamation point after words because it

is "you lie!". and all hell broke loose. and daschle leave for the first time nancy pelosi actually raised her eyebrows [laughter] i did think that was possible joe biden, obama loses his plays and was so shaken and -- shaken and there is a collective gasp of a dead democrats then it was followed in the schoolyard i am telling which is exactly what they did immediately after words the republicans rushed to the microphone to apologize which they do too often and the democrats went to raise money which they do well -- all too well.

a and it equals his behavior and for the state's congressional delegation. cliburn has not steadies' south carolina history. added 1856 a congressman from south carolina upset by the abolitionist from the republican from massachusetts went to the senate and clubbed him it nearly to death and disabled have for several years that is how bad and held up. that was a low. you cannot get much lower than that. the history has never been a strong suit.

but mixed in the hub of is the nature he said not that it is alive but "you lie!" the existential declaration of the man five years ahead of the time before anybody caught on. sinatra sings and obama lies [laughter] it was that natural of a declaration. but all presidents stretchers on it national security and all lie about their personal life but only one present in the modern era has elevated it to the level of strategy. even bill clinton did not do that. so now i have to prove on with what i would consider consider, in the book i had an article in the "new york

post" that asked how many lies can obama tell? i tried to go back and count and i mean it is a false statement intentionally given or totally indifferent to the outcome and it is usually a stated game. with false or indifferent so wetback to count the subchapters there were 75 at the end of the book i pulled out the top 25. there is nothing george bush said from chemical weapons is in iraq nothing bush said would have cracked the top

25 but that is our implicit is the governing strategy. it is unprecedented. it was an effort after the clinton administration to denigrate the word flyby used bush is lying. love was always attempted to ram into those but my car was always better than their car. but i just picked the top six. my father left my family when i was two years old. obama said this to schoolchildren one-year esterhazy hit -- he was elected and i knew it was false by that time. in matters more than it seems because in 2004 when

he was introduced at the dnc in boston he started the speech i am a product of the improbable love between a go murder and purity from kansas. and to abide in the possibilities of the nation he built his persona and campaign that was disrupted when his father was invited and he did make the painful decision to make a choice. as david said it is the signature appeal for the multicultural ideal based on the family life. it was improbable if there was one. i suspected noblesse from closing time to the moment obama seniors and covered up the next morning.

[laughter] i am not even kidding. here is what we know for a fact that obama never spent a single night under the same room with his father it was known before the election we knew that obama and his mother spent the first year of his life in seattle washington and. and those said what? i did not know this. not until 2012 that "the washington post" poll a surprise winner acknowledged yes, there was no family they've lived together in seattle the first sighting was a three week called august 61 but yet there were four major biographies written between a the election and it is filled with that.

and the near time rates about obama as mother and does not tell us one word where she was from the time she was at school february february 61 by the time the baby is born and she knows there is a controversy that not one word. what happens now they are called conspiracy theorist and those in the minister not doing their job they're supposed to be doing. even after the block is fear said he was two years old when his father left knowing that no one would call him on that. but that is the way their role.

but the "fast & furious" program began under the previous administration. buttenbaum bus spun his dictionary univision forum several months earlier the white house press secretary jay carney made this same bogus claim word for word and was spanked on national tv. he shows up half a dozen times and jay kearney said no. i have the memo october 2009 you started it. and then carnet finessed is way out of it. there needs to be a lot more done with "fast & furious".

not even a smidgen of corruption. [laughter] seventy know the question that preceded this. they're response to a bill o'riley's question just before the 2014 super bowl of the irs scandal he said no corruption? obama says not even a smidgen of corruption. it is hard to understand when news of the i.r.a. scandal broke he said it is inexcusable and americans have a right to be angry. i emigre. what? now there's not a smidgen of corruption not only that that investigation is still ongoing how can you say that? the investigation is not finished. it is pretty bold and strong

and we revealed to the american people exactly what we understood that the time to make a claim in response to the inquiry about benghazi. to see the note should be would hide the ball for purposes with one week later we all said there was a terrorist attack, then the day after iraq not be a very good coverup of course, a day after he said it was and said it most prominently during a 2012 debate with mr. romney where candy crowley the us meet -- that mediator it was a tag team match dealing with heavyweights that made it more difficult.

[laughter] i'm sorry. [laughter] i promise to be good. [laughter] i had to watch said a few times and it is very distressing to see what happens. romney has obama cornered and he says crowley gives them the set up line about hillary clinton says hit it -- it is her responsibility and obama acts like he knows this would have been the buck stops here is my responsibility but the morning after varity said i said it was a terrorist attack. then romney says you said it was a terrorist attack the morning after? no obama is on his stool. yes. yes.

you said it was a terrorist attack the morning after? then obama says candy? then she starts to wave a piece of paper. yes yes. he said it is a terrorist attack then the audience starts to a plot against rules. then the candidate stars to talk over and candy says move on move on. she is leaving this piece of paper by get the transcript. that was a killer moment in the history of the candidacy. she did a similar stay with fast in various. but the first time here is what he said one week later. when he checked his first question on benghazi? david letterman.

one week later. is exactly one week later makes the first question and david letterman says what happened? are we have more? obama, here is what happened. we had a video released by someone and he is sort of a shady character who made an extremely offensive video aimed at muhammed and is long. these people by the way applied for the book of mormon and it is a double standard. normally letterman would look shocked and he said making fun of the profit mohammad? [laughter] and obama shakes his head in dismay. yes making fun of the profit muhammed that is the first question he took but then one week later blames it on

the video on the david letterman show. o caper code number to. transparency and the rule of law will pave the touchstone of this presidency. this is what obama is said to the staff on the first full day in office and this has been reported more. [laughter] it was precisely a the violation of this promise that got others so upset with the notion of transparency and the rule of law. number one promise violated i do solemnly swear i will safely execute the oath of office to do the best of my ability to preserve them protect the constitution of the united states. [applause] he had his hand on the bible

for that one. may god have mercy on his soul. i will update this a little bit. it is not in the book but it is relevant today. on some tempers 16, 2014 a bomb is no charge gathering at the cdc. he said people wanted to hear that the chances of the ebola outbreak are extremely low. u.s. says increased airport screening and the unlikely event the government is taking measures that hospitals are ready to deal with the possible case safely. three days later september september 19th, mr. duncan and left his house they lied

about his contact with the woman then boarded a plane by way of brussels and dulles airport with almost no screening at all endows a jumper 26 walked into texas presbyterian hospital nauseous and feverish and despite his recent exodus from liberia, despite his illness no one tested for ebola then three days later he was admitted only after a friend called the cdc. in essence nothing obama said was true. airport screening was inadequate, hospitals were unprepared and the arrival of a patient here was too likely for this to be careless this one it could shift the blame to the health officials are principles of cdc but unfortunately his failure to tell the truth is not an anomaly at all but the norm. in my book "you lie!" the us

subtitle i have to read it because i forget, the evasions, omissions, febrications, frauds, and outright falsehoods of barack obama" i. document more than 75 significant deceptions that chronicling the untruth i end up writing a history of the president. thank-you. [applause] those of you for bold enough to be a national tv can do so by asking a question. is this on?

>> i recently returned from your lands where i had to care for my 54 year-old sister. one of the things that sustained three was no wing i get back to independence and to my church. and deriving there of course, we went to a wednesday evening bible study one of the good members was talking about humility. and everything he said the five humility. so i confess seven just returning from taking care

of my baby sister how distraught if i was the returned to independence. the cover is going to return to this wonderful church of good people that i identified with that were such great christians and i love them because they're the best bench of liars and cheats the best i had ever seen. but my question is how different is barack obama van the typical member of my church? >> we are all sinners. i would say the difference is don't lie strategically or consciously or relentlessly for the sake of gaining power that is the

difference. [applause] but i imagine all presidents have lighted is inevitable given the job. by it is understandable but an obama is case it is relentless. it is a policy and not even interesting anymore. >> this gentleman just before me spoke the truth about what is going on in our nation regarding hour religious leaders. this is the problem taxing income is stealing the johnson and man-to-man 501(c)3 portion of the irs tax code as the pastor's mouth are gagged to the point they're almost

impotent. had the daybreak that bond to look like the regiment of the revolutionary period to speak truth to power so the folks will understand what we are facing today? >> all they have to do i am familiar with that lot just read install lot and the history space has been prosecuted they use it to intimidates but they're not aware the consequences. >> but does want to say to that point is did tried to get the minister with their

sermon i just wanted to throw this sin they are online. said they would just check back its demand more than the parent i would like us to think and may being on to estimate the being on c-span. >> my question is is a long-term impact on the next presidency? and then.

>> ice updating democratic strategist say i think we made a mistake in 2012 elected mayor romney i think the next president is someone who you trust in some new can fix things and who can lead and organize. with the ideologue stand up pragmatist. [laughter] but in 2016 we need someone who'd can fix. my opinion senate the news came out this week obama as popularity is at 4 percent right now. with the midst of several

programs the efforts are crumbling against isis but even people say we need people on the ground if you like your doctor you can keep the doctor period if you like your insurance you can keep it that is turning into a late-night talk-show to rethink that drop of popularity has to do with the people understanding this has been in sarah of falsehood or is it just until they can get a band-aid?

and a lot of it has to do with credibility it does not affect them on a daily basis they may not even care about taxes because so many don't pay taxes but they do when there's to list down the street realizes it does not have to happen. that is where people begin to pay attention obama had an signature law if you like you kinky but that is when people would pay attention personally for them and they caught on another think there is any recovery for the administration and i really worry the next few years in fact,.

>> there is a debate going on now if the current administration under obama is incompetent enter is this grand plan what can you speak to that issue? obama is a master slide of hands. and as the progressive of a socialist or communist is the muslim or atheist? but did he really care? he is immersed and leftism from the earliest days but always played at the shallow end of the pool when i look at the presidency and to think he cared enough to get things done so from day

number one he promises. the democratic house and a democratic senate by executive order. six years later he read -- blames congress? to anything they can control congress because that is the way it is presented. that is part of it. no he doesn't want to be dictator he would have to care. been through confirmations and do things. >> i am a vietnam veteran 50 years ago when i was 17 years old i knew that lbj was a liar as far as i am concerned barack hussain obama is a liar of the charity first century. i am a danger to use the

country they would not know the truth is it a bit them in the gluteus maxima as. the service responsible for thousands of patients this does not surprise me one bit. so thank god knows death of me came home the part of me is still there. i rather send anybody overseas speaking to the debtors administration he told the story how his own call cave of having

liberated auschwitz and as traumatized by what he had seen and stayed there for six months because there is not adequate v.a. care. then to say your mother was an only child your father was the kenyan who is that uncle he said it was a great uncle because the soviets pointed out after the fact but later on day said so they made up that story he was speaking to a hispanic veterans now he said his

father was like a 14 year-old kenyan. and then he came home than the v.a. tech care of them they take care of them but non-hispanic said he would tell stories just to make apply regardless of it is true or not. >> i have two points the first one falls in the category to defy humility you're responsible for urging me to write for an american thinker. one of the first articles are pieces published was

don't be fooled by obama as incompetence for grided know i am far more cynical but i stand by the premise that obama is not a competent but following a design that takes in other elements in that peace is still widely quoted in your welcome to read it. my second point is more of a statement. but it seems his lies fall into your categories like the statements that are false at the time their uttered. there are statements when the facts come along to expose them as lies then there are the contradictions

remakes a statement or a contradictory statement such as it was not a terrorist attack. >> i have a line right here. you could say i am defending the president here but i think in that category there is precedent for that and know the model he is following in that is the most holy we know the vs. that come later when it is inoperative. >> i have a chapter in the

book to the point where you stay where you mean talking to your george stephanopoulos talking about john mccain attacking my muslim faith and he's a pitcher christian faith. yap from my christian faith. [laughter] that does not inspire confidence especially someone whose history is so clouded. i do think he is following the strategy they've decided but if he was doing it well people would warm up to it but instead he does just the opposite. he has a real chance to aviate america on election day and we will see how that works out.

>> the question for you he is not following the script who is writing the script for him who puts all those out there? does he do this extemporaneous or is it written for him? >> and his life he has had ghostwriters to help him out [laughter] actually build errors helped him with his first book which is the story broke and was punished for but this second book was largely written by his speech writer but the reason they could write about him they tend to think alike. once when you see people up there saying we cannot ban travel at of western africa then you are approved of

that you think there is no soviet union mastermind with the things they used to do at the end of that era. i think it is self generated. levy valery garett or david axelrod but the will they don't need prodding from an outside source. >> i have a question for you, jack. today found out that barack obamacare deployed the national guard to west africa. my question is, isn't he pushing the envelope as far

as the legal grounds for these young men? they did not cite - - side up to fight infectious disease but to protect our country. >> i would say yes and no to that. what is complicated is that they might -- they may die or kill other people back called to fight infectious diseases is the providence and i will talk about the book and one action i am kidding that was fully unconstitutional for the initial and in 200011 for some of it doesn't even mention the "state of the union" speech as far as anyone knows libya was our ally.

gadaffi plus our ballard -- but two months later vis on and on to attack and it is from benghazi. and we would be very rwanda as sized because that happened in the second largest and when it there

was no blood bath. plywood he'd not duplicate that? where was the and it threat? this is seen steady as cnn's

jill is being closely monitored. but the thing is what has become of the movie and the book and all the information coming out is obama, this is something that no lot of information voters do not understand what a non colonialist is. they don't know or care probably the way you look at his mother that she had to go to the bathroom for whole in the ground he apparently

recanted that and by the way she left her second husband when he wanted to join and fight but to what i am saying is if he were, i don't thing he would do anything different from what he has been doing now including the results of having isis. i know they have taken baghdad yet, i don't think so but i know they're just marching on and on. and this is why i don't get. if he has all these millions come in from the southern border brigade diseases he tries to turn us with the

help of the money of george soros, turn us into a third world country. he is doing that to get even with us and to prove it the first thing that he did was to have the best of winston churchill removed from the white house because britain did something to his grandfather in debbie billion. >> good points. [laughter] but to sum up your question here is the problem with where we are right now with obama ideology. . .
