Obama Lies About How Many Women Have Been Raped in America

-By Warner Todd Huston

Obama has now decided that almost 40 million women in America have been raped. This quite despite the fact that the government’s own national crime statistics report less than 2 million rapes in the last 20 years.

Once again we see Obama boldly lying to push his agenda understanding fully that the press and his left-wing, anti-American allies will uncritically regurgitate his claims to help him.

Obama disgorged his rape stat lie during the Grammys last weekend where he said, “Right now, nearly 1 in 5 women in America has been a victim of rape or attempted rape. And more than 1 in 4 women has experienced some form of domestic violence.”

This outrageous number simply cannot be true.

Ashe Schow did a great job destroying Obama’s claim on Monday, but even this liar in chief’s own government puts the lie to his numbers.

The FBI’s crime stats show that less than 2 million rapes have been reported in the last 20 years.

Now, many will say that this may be because many women never report their rape. OK, fine. But the disparity between Obama’s claim that 40 million women have been raped and the FBI’s 2 million report is a disparity that simply defies logic.

Of course, one of the ways Obama and his allies arrived at this lie-filled number of 40 million rapes is that they have defined “rape” so loosely that even an “unwanted kiss” is now described as “rape.”

Now, remember, this is the same president who only a day before scolded America for “hyping” the number of terror attacks and disparaging Islam. One day he acts as if “hyping” something is bad and the very next shows that he is willing to “hype” something else to get his own way.

What this shows is that words and facts have no meaning to the scumbag in the White House. He’ll say anything and do anything to push his anti-American agenda.

Perhaps we should be used to this lair, though…
