This Endangered Democrat Congressman May Be a Pathological Liar

March 12, 2014

Rahall Pelosi

Nick Rahall truly has become a creature of Washington because he simply cannot stop lying.

After lying about his support for a carbon tax, then lying about people being able to keep their health care plans under Obamacare, Rahall has apparently decided to keep on lying about his record.

Today he told The Hill newspaper that he supported Bush more than Obama.

ANOTHER LIE! Take a look at the CQ Vote study below. Rahall overwhelmingly supported Obama more than Bush.

NRCC Comment: “Nick Rahall has been in Washington so long that lying has become second nature. Rahall has consistently lied to West Virginians about his support for a carbon tax, the effects of Obamacare, and he is now lying about how often he votes for the Obama agenda. No wonder why Rahall is down double digits in the latest poll – West Virginians simply can’t trust him not to lie to them.” – NRCC Spokesman Ian Prior
