How Many Lies Do We Accept

How many lies are we, the American People, going to accept from our elected and appointed officials in Washington before we say enough?
Since the bombings in Boston by the brothers, Tamerlan and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, the stories about what the FBI knew and what the Homeland security knew and what they both didn't know is astounding.
One group investigated the older brother, ask him if he was a terrorist, he said no so they just dismissed the warning they had received from Russia...What...Are they telling lies or are they just stupid, or do they think we are stupid.
The other group, led by Big Sis Napolitano (as Rush calls her) tells us when the brother left to go to Russia he "pinged" the system but when he returned six months later no one noticed.
This is not the first time those whose job it is to keep us safe has failed in their efforts to detect terrorists after having investigated them. There was the shooter in the Fort Hood killings, the shooter in the Arkansas recruiting office killing, the attempted bomber in Times Square. Were these men ask if they were involved in terrorist plots and did they say no as well?
Then we have the lies surrounding our consulate in Libya and the killing of Ambassador Stevens. Hillary Clinton, under oath, said she did not see any of the requests for additional security, prior to the attacks nor did she refuse any requests for additional security. She stated that all that was handled by lower level staff.
There would, to my mind, certainly be questions regarding her abilities to handle the office of the State Department if she would run so loose an organization that something as important as the security of a consulate in an area as dangerous as Libya would not warrant her attention. Perhaps she was too busy running all over the world playing a role.
Now that a real investigation has been done, the first one was done by one of her cronies and she was not even questioned, has shown proof that she did in fact see documentation regarding security requests and in fact signed them.
In the case of Hillary, will the voting public remember this or even know about it when she runs for President in 2016?
Obama has told so many lies that it has gotten to the point where if  asked "is Obama  lying",  just answer are his lips moving?
And why can he not bring himself to say Muslim Terrorist? The standard answers are "he's in denial", "he cannot see what is real", "he is trying to keep the truth from the American people because we can't handle the truth", he wants to convince us that the war on terror is over and that Al-Qaeda has been stopped.
Nothing could be further from the truth and everyone except Obama and his administration know it. I have my own theory as to why, when asked about Muslim terrorists, Obama always answers instead how great Islam and the muslim religion is, how filled with love and peace.
Far too few American citizens know the real truth of the history of our fights with muslims or of what is going on right now.
How many know that America's first war was against Islam?

 America’s First War Was Against Islam – Ottoman Empire
In 1786 Thomas Jefferson, then US ambassador to France, and John Adams, then US Ambassador to Britain, met in London with Sidi Haji Abdul Rahman Adja, the Dey’s ambassador to Britain, in an attempt to negotiate a peace treaty with the Barbary Pirates based on Congress’ vote of funding. To the US Congress these two future Presidents later reported the reasons for the Muslims’ hostility towards America, a nation with which they had no previous contacts.

And this was John Quincy Adams on Islam: (same source)
 “Adopting from the sublime conception of the Mosaic law, the doctrine of one omnipotent God; he connected indissolubly with it, the audacious falsehood, that he was himself his prophet and apostle. Adopting from the new Revelation of Jesus, the faith and hope of immortal life, and of future retribution, he humbled it to the dust by adapting all the rewards and sanctions of his religion to the gratification of the sexual passion. He poisoned the sources of human felicity at the fountain, by degrading the condition of the female sex, and the allowance of polygamy; and he declared undistinguishing and exterminating war, as a part of his religion, against all the rest of mankind. THE ESSENCE OF HIS DOCTRINE WAS VIOLENCE AND LUST; TO EXALT THE BRUTAL OVER THE SPIRITUAL PART OF HUMAN NATURE (Capitals in original)…Between these two religions, thus contrasted in their characters, a war of twelve hundred years has already raged. The war is yet flagrant…While the merciless and dissolute dogmas of the false prophet shall furnish motives to human action, there can never be peace upon earth, and good will towards men.”
 How many people know that there are many muslims within the Obama administration. We don't hear the media questioning why. They also never question why all the visits to the White House from members of the Muslim Brotherhood.
Also the media, even those on Fox News would rather bite their tongue off rather than say the words, "he lies." Remember the great uproar   when a congressman stood up during Obama's first State of the Union speach and said those words. This was in regard to funding for abortions included in the health care bill. It was later shown that the congressman was correct but not much was said about that.
So back to my original question.  How many lies do we accept. Do we just continue on for the next three and one half years while our country goes down the tubes. Is it so much better to continue our so called respect for the office when the person sitting in the office is failing to earn our respect by doing what he took an oath to do.
We all need to think about it.
