Barry Soetoro did not write the book he claims to have written. So does that compound the liars lie?

Surveys and data, how accurate are these figures? And which Brits are we talking about anyway? Are you sure British sarcasm hasn't been recorded instead?

How many US citizens have read any of the speeches written by Winston Churchill? Not many I reckon and why should they?

Personally, I feel my time is better spent reading literature that has more relevance to my profession and my own interests than reading Orwell's daunting novel, Tolstoy's ancient tome and Hawking's book (which should be accompanied by a Dummy's guide anyway). No, I haven't read these because they don't appeal to me in this modern world.

I also haven't read Obama's book, although I have read a good portion of the Bible because of my Catholic upbringing. There, a solid honest answer from a working Brit. Stick that in your survey!

I can understand lying about reading Obama's book.... I too would lie about reading that book.
