President Lincoln asked Congressman Thaddeus Stevens for his opinion as to the honesty of Secretary of War Simon Cameron. Stevens said “I don’t think he would steal a red hot stove.” Lincoln told Cameron, and Cameron took offense and demanded that Stevens retract the remark. Stevens then said, “I was mistaken, Cameron would steal a red hot stove."

I apologize that you do not have volumes and shelves of published works of your lies… like your coworkers?
Or… I apologize that you are a couple of pounds shy of being the Biggest?

OK. Not the biggest. The most prolific. (Smiles, walks away and then asks an aide what prolific means. The smart aide replies: the best.)

I don’t know how much mass the Senator has. I figure that most of his volume is just made up of hot-gas. Him being an old-fart and a Senator to boot.

Sen. Belfry has lots of competition for that title in Congress but none can hold a candle to The Great Prevaricator currently in the White House.

Unfortunately our liar isn’t in Congress. If his nose grew when he told a lie, there wouldn’t be room for anyone else in Washington, D.C.
