7. Li'l Pervy lied about Thomas Jefferson today as well. He said he'd start his new Speakership with a prayer...

He claimed it was the exact one that Thomas Jefferson used to start his own term and that he “said it every day of his life” afterward. Then he smiled that saccharine smile of his.

It didn’t sound like Jefferson, frankly. Jefferson was a Deist, not a Christian.

Ali Velshi thought so, too, and he fact-checked. Nope. Not a Jefferson quote.

What L’l Pervy did today with his lie was to continue the attempt to re-write US history. It was pure home-school textbooks. In their minds, the lie is justified because that’s the way things should have happened. They can even tell you the date that George Washington was “born again” and that also never happened.

Watch out for this one, and fact-check him often. Li’l Pervy lies all too easily.
