Why do they do it? Who needs to lie like this? I am thinking, of course, of Representative elect George Santos. But also of the whole lot of them. Of politicians as a species. Why do they feel the need to make stuff up?
It must be admitted that Santos is emerging as the undisputed top of his class of fibsters. To date he claims to have attended a prestigious Bronx prep school which has no record of him ever being there. He claims to have graduated from Baruch College, despite never having enrolled there. He claims to have worked for Citigroup and Goldman Sachs but never did.

Or as Today's Cartoon shows us, how about Elizabeth Warren doing the Indian Dance with a Feather in her Hair. She actually profited from her Scam getting into College and later a Plum Job! So, Democrats, we are NOT going to let you force us to give up our Scammer unless you give up YOURS! He deserves a desk in the Basement for the next Two years and then when he's up for re-election, let his Voters decide what to do with him! Meanwhile, he stays in the R column!

How did this jerk get through an entire campaign with no one vetting him or exposing him as a fraud. Do your homework Republicans to avoid this ridiculous embarrassment.

I've known a handful of people like Biden and Santos over the years. I'm not a psychiatrist, but my theory is that they don't feel themselves worthy and feel the need to make things up, to make themselves into the person they wish they were rather than the person they really are. Sad.

Why does Joe Biden get a pass for his lies?
Because he, like Liawatha, AOC, Swalwell, Adam Schiff and the rest, are Leftist Democ'RATS!
The Leftist Media gives them a Pass, as their lies act to advance The Communist Cause.
(This is of course a rhetorical question, as all us L-Dotter's have known this for a decade or more.)

So what? Sens. Warren and Blumenthal have lied for years. Add in Crooked Brandon and his family as well as all the deep state liars and first amendment thought police wannabes and we'll get to Mr Santos around the year 2152.

I would doubt the education level of most people in Washington DC. I can truthfully say my high school education I had in private school would far surpass most of those stupid idiots. Our country is fronted by liars, thieves, crooks, money launderers and general ignoramuses like the fraud family in the White House. The cartoon today says it all.

Santos is apparently a serial liar. He's one of those guys that embellish everything. Suffice it to say that he will be a one term congress critter. Hopefully, Biden will be a one term, or less, resident of the White House.

Re #3 - Same could be asked of Joe Biden. He doesn't lie - they're gaffes. Or Kamala Harris. Hillary Clinton.
Spare me your outrage.

Liberals find Biden’s constant lies amusing. You can’t blame it on dementia. He’s been doing it all his life.

#14, who knows? ...maybe he lied about that, too, and he IS a democrat.
Incredible that he got away with all those lies during the entire campaign... is there no one who grew up with him? went to school with him? worked with him? has he any friends?

Don't forget the US Senator from Connecticut who claimed Vietnam service, Democrat Blumenthal. He still sits in the Senate after he was exposed.

He is a Piker. Obama has the record. He made up a fake birth certificate claims to have gone to 3 colleges where no one ever saw him, claim to be born in America and have 2 kids.

What about Elizabeth “Fauxchahontis” Warren and “Viet Nam Vet” Blumenthal? Are they going to resign?

While dishonesty at any level is regrettable, I am not too unhappy that a Republican is saying “So what, I did it but I don’t intend to quit”.

Santos should agree to resign on the condition that TaliBiden resigns first.

Headline has a rhetorical question. Biden (and Warren, and Obama, et al) get a free pass because of the Democrat double-standard in the mainstream media.

Nearly all Politicians lie by saying what they will do if elected, then when elected do not do what they promised. What is the difference? President Trump is one of the few who delivered on what he said he would do.

How about Harry Reid lying about Romney's tax returns, and then when asked about it (after Romney lost to BO's second term) he replied, "It worked, didn't it?"
While we're at it, the media have a huge role in the lying machinery, most of the time, virtually ALL of the time, for the benefit of the Dems. This would require these so-called journalists to work hard at getting to the truth ALL OF THE TIME!
