(CNSNews.com) - Speaking at the 67th Annual Israeli Independence Day Celebration in Washington, D.C. on Thursday evening, Vice President Joe Biden said that “no president has ever done more to support Israel’s security†than Barack Obama.
“President Obama and I are proud to carry forward the unbroken line of American leaders--Democrat and Republican--who have honored America’s sacred promise to protect the homeland of the Jewish people,†Biden said....
...That’s my President. He understands the need for Israel to have the right and the capacity and the capability to defend itself. At the same time, he says, “we have Israel’s back†-- and you can count on it. The same commitment to the survival and security of Israel is fundamental to our strategy for the entire Middle East...

Not the biggest lie Biden has told.
But close.

He's mental, but of course we already knew that.

It's nice to be the lib in chief.
That way everyone can lie for you and nobody cares when promises get broken...

– In early 2008, Samantha Power, later to become ambassador to the United Nations, urged the Armenian American community to support Sen. Barack Obama’s White House bid by highlighting his pledge to recognize long-ago atrocities against Armenian Christians as genocide.
In a video message to the community days before the Feb. 5 Super Tuesday primaries, the then-senior foreign policy adviser to the Obama campaign spoke of his pledge as president to acknowledge the genocide and his willingness...
“to call a spade a spade and to speak truth about it.â€
“I know him very well and he’s a person of incredible integrity, and he’s not going to focus-group his way to making very important policy decisions.
He’s a true friend of the Armenian people, an acknowledger of the history,†Power said, describing Obama as “a person who can actually be trusted.â€
For the past six years Armenian American leaders have been waiting for President Obama to honor his campaign pledge that “as president I will recognize the Armenian Genocide.â€
Their anticipation mounted this year, which marks the 100th anniversary of the beginning of the mass killings of 1.5 million Armenians in Ottoman Turkey. Turkey’s Islamist-leaning government is highly sensitive about the issue, and responded irately to recent “genocide†statements by Pope Francis and European lawmakers.
At a meeting Tuesday with White House Chief of Staff Denis McDonough and Deputy National Security Adviser Ben Rhodes, Armenian American leaders said they were told that Obama would not use the term “genocide†in his customary April 24 statement on Friday.
Armenian National Committee of America (ANCA) chairman Ken Hachikian responded angrily.
“President Obama's surrender to Turkey represents a national disgrace,†he said in a statement. “It is, very simply, a betrayal of truth, a betrayal of trust.â€
“With the world's attention drawn this April 24th to worldwide Armenian Genocide centennial commemorations, President Obama will, tragically, use the moral standing of our nation not to defend the truth, but rather to enforce of a foreign power’s gag-rule,†Hachikian said. “He has effectively outsourced America's policy on the Armenian Genocide to [Turkish President] Recep Erdogan.â€
In early February 2008 ANCA widely circulated a video message from Power, a Kennedy School of Government professor and foreign policy advisor to Obama.
Power, who won a Pulitzer Prize for her 2002 book, A Problem from Hell: America and the Age of Genocide, recalled in the video that the junior senator from Illinois had met with her in 2005 to discuss the issues raised in her book.
“He was the only member of Congress, the U.S. Senate, to reach out to me having read that book, in which I documented what had been done to the Armenians in 1915.â€
She referred to Obama’s “unshakeable conscientiousness about human rights,†and praised his “understanding the cost of denial and the degree to which that fuels further cycles of violence.â€
Power also lauded the candidate’s “willingness to challenge conventional wisdom and conventional Washington.â€
“As your community knows better than anybody, business as usual in Washington leads to certain bad habits that are destructive for human rights and for human dignity.â€
She cited Obama’s “very forthright statement on the Armenian genocide, his support for the Senate resolution acknowledging the genocide all these years later, his willingness as president to commemorate it and certainly to call a spade a spade, and to speak truth about it.â€
Power expressed the hope Armenian Americans would “take my word for it,†or if not then that that they would pay attention to everything Obama had to say, “because he’s a person who can actually be trusted.â€
There's more.
But it's just more outright lies followed by even worse lies.
Everything the incompetent Powers said about the incompetent owebuma is 100% untrue.
It's amazing how anyone can have such a perfect record when it comes to being completely dishonest.

I heard the audio this morning of him telling that whopper.
He sounded drunk.
