Welcome back to the der show. Today we're going to talk about lying liars and congressmen.

0:11.4

You know I'm talking about George Santos. He is now a member of Congress having sworn

0:18.3

to uphold the Constitution. And of course he's a certified liar. I mean what else can

0:25.1

you say about him? He's lied about almost every aspect of his life and background.

0:32.4

He just invented himself. I mean if he were a book he'd be in the fiction section of

0:38.8

the library, not the nonfiction section. You know Woody Allen used to talk about some

0:43.3

day they'll be a nonfiction version of the Warren committee report because he always

1:48.9

United States Senate and occupants of the White House. Look I had a president of the United States

1:56.2

look me directly in the eye and lie to me this was President Obama who I knew as a student

2:02.8

and he called me to the Oval Office when he was president just on the eve of his second

2:08.3

election. He obviously wanted my support. Question about whether you should have been asking for

2:14.3

my support in the White House itself but clearly he invited me there to talk about Israel and Iran.

2:22.4

He knew that I was influential voice among Jewish voters and pro-Israel voters in the United

2:29.1

States and he looked me in the eye and said Alan you've known me for a long time.
