Obama Lies About Bridges
Mr. President:
Don't do this.
Lying is bad. It suggests a contempt for democracy.
Also, as a grubby prudential aside: you don't need to do it. The general point about infrastructure and jobs is exactly right. Why sully it with a bogus illustration? And why give the GOP ammo? Because they'll act like this one lie about one bridge counterbalances their cavalcade of lies about jobs and infrastructure.
Do not lie about stuff.
Lying is wrong.

I gotta say, from the article, I don't understand how Obama lied. Enlighten a poor fool?
The "shovel ready" in 2015 argument is astonishingly specious: if the project had been approved 3 years ago when Obama first proposed infrastructure investments, the project would already be under way.
Obama is lying in the same way that Kerry lied when he claimed that he sponsored the project that made the internet possible.
