Obama Lies About How He Met His Wife: Liberal Media Scrambles to Cover for Him

Well, when all you do is lie, this kinda stuff is going to happen to you.

“I don’t know if anybody else will meet their future wife or husband in class like I did, but I’m sure that you’re all going to have wonderful careers,” he said as he warmed up the audience before delivering a commencement speech at an economics school in Moscow Tuesday.

But the truth is that the couple met not “in class” but at a law firm in Chicago, Sidley Austin, in 1989. Obama was a summer associate (essentially a legal intern) there and Robinson was an attorney completing her first year at the firm. Both attended Harvard Law School, but Michelle graduated in the spring of 1988, while Barack Obama did not arrive at the Cambridge, Mass., campus until that fall.

And here's how the liberal media is covering for his idiocy.

From the above article:

It was unclear what prompted Obama’s confusion or lapse of memory, though he does have the excuse of jet lag. It was about 4 a.m. in Washington as he spoke.

Okay. Isn't that like the tenth time the media has used the jet lag excuse? A word of caution. If a President can't function on short sleep, he's going to be very dangerous.

From Newsweek:

The thing is: Obama didn’t technically meet his wife at school. Although both are Harvard Law School grads, Michelle Obama got her degree in the spring of 1988 while her future husband didn’t actually start school there until later that fall. (He graduated in 1991). The Obamas officially met in Chicago in 1989, when the future president was a summer associate at the Sidley Austin law firm and Michelle was assigned as his mentor. Was what Obama said wrong? Technically no, considering Obama was still going to school when he met his wife.

Technically no? What? Technically you can't be more wrong. You either meet in class, or you meet on the job. There's no technicality to it. I'm calling shenanigans.



Here's video of the idiot.



UPDATE: Here's some gems from those who commented on this story at Free Republic:

"TOTUS met her in class. Barry came along later."

"Well, that whopper’s gonna cost him another big honkin’ cocktail ring, and maye some genuine pearls, too."

"Is there a Marriage Certificate we don’t know about?"

“I am the King of Zamunda! When I tell the truth it is a lie and when I tell a lie it is a lie!”
