Can he stop? Can he be stopped?

What's scarier than President Obama lying about "You Can Keep Your Plan" and then yesterday saying he didn't say it? He is either a sociopath who enjoys deceiving people, even his staunchest supporters, or he is a compulsive liar who can't stop. There are at least 24 occasions capture on video (now in a montage circulating the net) of the lie he told for 3 years, and absolutely zero record of the claim he told yesterday (except when he tells the lie).

These are not the run of the mill lies or "he misspoke" we've come to expect from politicians. He makes Nixon look like a beginner. LBJ who was far more clever would be proud. Is it his abandonment as a child? His community organizer experience where he learned to lie to the poor? His abortion beliefs (what's one more life in the big picture)?  Does he have a moral core? Is there no there there?

I heard a Democrat call in to a conservative show yesterday morning to blame the Republicans for the mess Obamacare has made. His reasoning was that single payer is what everyone really needed, but they were afraid it wouldn't pass so they pushed for ACA (which only passed with one vote and no votes from Republicans). The individual mandate was Hillary's talking point in 2008, and was rejected by Obama during the campaign, edging her out. He claimed he wanted to just insure those who didn't have insurance, about 10% of the population. Another lie.
