I watched Obomba’s ‘news conference’ on Fox and then O’Reilly’s analysis followed.

I watched Lie To Me. It was ok. Timothy Roth looked shorter than usual in that episode.

So I guess more Americans prefer to listen to pretend lies than actual lies. That’s a ray of hope.

LOL.
Yep. Since we were out of barf bags here, we watched “Tiny Tim” and “Lie to Me.”
The Obamagasm on the other nets was listed as “LIE TO US” on my cable system line-up.
To: big black dog
OH!!!!! I thought “LIE TO ME” “WAS” the Obama conference. Silly me.

So, If you watched zer0, wouldn't that be the same as watching “Lie to Me”?
