Obama the liar

One morning on IRC;

[06:56] [_W_] Bjorn, but who cares if you get to remove one liar if you’re just replacing him with another?
[06:56] <Bjorn> I don’t think obama is a liar
[06:57] <Bjorn> I think clinton was a liar but that didn’t bother me then
[06:57] <Bjorn> he bothers me now though
[06:57] [_W_] Bjorn, are you really that blind?
[06:57] <Bjorn> see we settled for clinton then because there wasn’t anything better
[06:57] <Bjorn> _W_: blind to what?
[06:57] <Bjorn> you think Obama is a liar?
[06:58] [_W_] absolutely
[06:58] <Bjorn> well, I disagree
[06:58] <Bjorn> whole heartedly
[06:58] [_W_] as is anyone likely to get even close to a presidential nomination
[06:58] <Bjorn> I think anyone who thinks he is a liar is either ignorant or jaded
[06:58] [_W_] Bjorn, you’ll see

One of Obama’s pledges (http://www.barackobama.com/2007/08/01/the_war_we_need_to_win.php)

As President, I will close Guantanamo, reject the Military Commissions Act, and adhere to the Geneva Conventions. Our Constitution and our Uniform Code of Military Justice provide a framework for dealing with the terrorists.
