If you're asking who's lie had the biggest implications, that'd be the big O in a runaway.

Not even close. Nixon worked a cover up. Clinton lied to a grand jury and was impeached and disbarred for it.
zerO? It's only a lie, I guess, when you actually know what the eff is going on. Which by his own admission he doesn't have a clue about anything. BUT, Keep it it you like it. Keep your Doctor if you like them. It won't add a dime to the debt. It will save 2500 dollars per family. It will "only" cost 990 billion dollars and it will save 7 trillion dollars over the next X years all play into very real life implications.
Really, going back, this guy has lied more and more often than Nixon and Clinton combined. By a long shot.

Obama is the biggest liar and by a mile. Nixon and Clinton lied to hide the things they did wrong, obama lied to hide the things he did to us. And Obama went out of his was a couple of dozen times and intentionally told us something he knew wasn't true and he did it to gain the power of the presidency.

There is really no way to tell for sure who told the most lies or the biggest one's
We do know however that only Nixon had to resign because of it.

Because of a hostile congress, press, Vietnam and the economy starting to tank.
Obama's lie will have much more of a long term impact on the American people, but it's okay because unlike Nixon, he's just so damn cool.

That was a pretty big f*cking lie, no?

Nixon had a shred of decency. In another era Clinton would have been gone too.
If we weren't populated by brain dead zombiebots, people on the take, people on the make and team cheerleaders, there's a chance zerO would be looking for a graceful exit as well. Who knows, once this thing completely implodes and is exposed as the great ponzie scheme that it is, maybe he an Madoff can spend some quality time together.

No, Nixon resigned when Goldwater told him he didn't have the votes in the senate when the house drew up impeachment proceedings. He quit before they could fire him.
Billy Boy and the Big O are lucky enough to be way cooler than Nixon.

I don't think the house had drawn up proceedings but was in the process. not important though. But he could have still stayed and fought it. He decided he wasn't going to put the public through that. While he was a paranoid, control freak kind of guy, I think he was still a pretty decent person. Who did do some very good things as Pres. He just let his fear of, basically everyone, get the best of him.

OR not. Who is still lying (and most know it) to try and obfuscate his earlier repeated lies? You can't shame the shameless.
If you like your health-care plan, you can keep your health-care plan. Period.
You can keep your doctor.
There are no death panels.
You’ll save $2,500 a year in health care premiums under Obamacare.
The costs of health care will go down.
The Obamacare website is working.
The others listed as candidates for 'Liar of the Millenium' did not lie in order to grease the skids in order to pass the largest "transformation" of 1/6th of the economy of the U.S. These lies made it possible for this bill to pass on a party line vote. Had these lies not been pushed, publicly and repeatedly, I'm doubtful that the dems could have passed this.
IOW, it's not even a contest. This could be the biggest lie ever foisted on the public in the history of the nation. It was done for entirely politically calculated reasons. They are trying to get us to accept that going forward, truth is entirely optional. That's the new 'normal.'

Not sure if you're talking about Nixon, but being blamed for a war you didn't start just might eventually get on your nerves.
