116. The Obama quote that you demand a "source for" is right from Obama's very own Campaign Website
Edited on Sun Sep-06-09 03:57 AM by David Zephyr
My quote is precise and direct from Obama himself. Sorry to poke another needle in your hot air balloon. Here is his full quote:

"One year from now, we have the chance to tell all those corporate lobbyists that the days of them setting the agenda in Washington are over. I have done more to take on lobbyists than any other candidate in this race - and I've won. I don't take a dime of their money, and when I am President, they won't find a job in my White House."

And as I stated correctly in the OP, Obama then went on to hire lobbyist in his White House. That's mendacity. Some would call it broken promises others might call it lies. Certainly, it was mendacious.
