A Washington Post fact-checker ruled Thursday that Joe Biden hadn't lied when he said he supported a fracking ban during Sunday's Democratic presidential debate. Rather, Biden had simply "described his fracking stance inaccurately."
The Post gave Biden "Zero Pinocchios" for saying during the most recent Democratic debate that he opposed fracking entirely. Instead, the paper pointed to the Biden campaign's explanation that the candidate had "misspoken" and that "his position was the same as ever," opposing fracking only on public lands.

Everything Dementia Joe has done in his career has been based on lies. "This is a big $%%#% deal....", he bought into "if you like your plan, you keep your plan...", stealing other peoples speeches, etc.
Now he's Dementia Joe and he can blame that for his new lies.

I agree - - Joe 30330 did not lie.
He doesn't have the mental capacity to distinguish reality from fantasy - - so how can he "lie"?

Joe did not lie about his stance...he just has "a wide stance" like former Idaho senator Larry Craig said at the Minneapolis Airport restroom in regard to a sexual harassment claim by a patron. Thanks for clarifying, Washington Post, rag paper

Isn't if odd how when you or I say something it's immediately etched is stone. When a pol says something, it's expunged from the record simply by them "walking it back" or "apologizing." This is especially prevalent on the Dem side of the aisle. It appears--with Dem pols--their media walks things back for them as a matter of course.

Re:#8 hammondb3,
But they can "recall" plenty when not under oath and write several books.
As I recall Hillary could not "recall" working on Whitewater but her Rose Law Firm billing records (which could not be found - showing she did) appears (in the White House) the day after the statutes of limitations expired.
That was a FU in your face to America which the media virtually ignored. Do you remember the outrage?

I hope, if I ever mis-speak to a member of government, I will be allowed to 'walk it back' like the dems do.

Do the Democrats really want to put the obviously senile Joseph Biden in charge of the US strategic nuclear forces and weapons?
If Biden is given the Democrat nomination look for the mainstream (liberal) media to fraudulently portray Biden as being more conservative then President Trump!

A WaPo "fact checker". That made my day. Is that like a poll watcher in Iran? A calorie counter at a county fair? A rule watcher for the Houston Astros?
Let's get real here. Most of the time Joe Biden has no idea where he is. Literally. You expect him to remember his voting record? He thinks his son Hunter hasn't done anything wrong and that no one has claimed that he did anything wrong.

If fracking is bad, biden's position, I would think, should be it is not to be allowed, no matter the owners of the land.
(I don't think it is bad - fracking is not new, has been used for decades - I'm just suggesting intellectual honesty on the part of the brain damaged Biden - aka the Delaware Dunce.)

#14, it wasn't even Biden walking it back or saying he misspoke. It was his staffer, explaining what Soros' puppet Biden really meant you to have heard..

How is poor brain-fried Joe suppose to even KNOW what "his stance" is on any given day?
The people in charge change "his stance" hour to hour and he can't remember what his wife looks like.

In other words, "Biden doesn't lie; he just doesn't know what he's talking about, and believes his own rambling nonsense."
