The Daily Mail recently reported former president George W. Bush, 76, will host his “The Struggle for Freedom” conference in Dallas, Texas on November 16th, 2022, where “Activists, experts, and leaders will gather at the Bush Institute to assess threats to freedom…”, while former (p)resident Barack Hussein Obama will be holding a “Democracy Forum” in New York City on the 17th.
According the the news outlet Axios, each conference will focus on “highlighting rising threats from authoritarianism and disinformation — and how to combat them globally and at home“.
Fantastic! What better way to learn about “Disinformation” than from two notable and legendary Masters of Disinformation? Let’s review!
Former President George W. Bush
Between 2001 and 2003 President Bush:
- made 232 false statements about weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.
- made 28 false statements about Iraq’s links to Al Qaeda.
“It’s important for our fellow citizens to understand, when you think Patriot Act, constitutional guarantees are in place when it comes to doing what is necessary to protect our homeland because we value the Constitution.”
- President George W. Bush, 2004-04-20
“George W. Bush is a liar. He has lied large and small, directly and by omission. He has mugged the truth—not merely in honest error, but deliberately, consistently, and repeatedly.”
- David Corn, “The Lies of George W. Bush: Mastering the Politics of Deception“, Crown; First Edition (Sept. 30, 2003), ISBN: 1400050669
Former (p)Resident Barack Hussein Obama
Between 2008 and 2016 Barack Obama:
- stated in 2015 there was “Not even a smidgen of corruption.” in his administration despite at least 18 known scandals, including ObamaCare, the Benghazi Attack, NSA Spying, and the IRS targeting Conservatives.
- made false statements about ObamaCare, his “red line in the sand” against Syria, Tax Reductions, immigration (the DREAM Act), Guns, Oil, and others.
- claimed Federal money wouldn’t fund abortion (not true), “saved or created 150,000 jobs” (also not true), and the US-Mexico Border wall was “basically complete” (definitely not true, it was only 5% complete).
“If you like your health care plan, you’ll be able to keep your health care plan, period. No one will take it away, no matter what.”
- Barack Hussein Obama, 2009 speech to the AMA, rated as “Lie of the Year” by Liberal “Fact-checking” site Politifact.com
“Whatever you have done is never a complete failure.
It can always serve as a bad example.”
