I think it's fine to talk about Obama's inaccuracies as long as he's seen fit to insert himself into the race. I just question the validity of some of the AP article claims. Still, if Obama's nose is growing, and he's actively involved in politics, I see nothing wrong with sharing it and discussing it. Though additionally, there is a question of perspective given both that politicians are known to stumble when it comes to the truth, and Obama apparently isn't immune, as well as acknowledging that this is small potatoes compared to the number of lies and whoppers for which our Liar In Chief has been responsible. If Trump could be restrained to Obama levels, we probably wouldn't even be having this discussion, or at least, it would be somewhat different than it is. The failure of both Trump and conservatives as a whole has inflated the issue in a way that it might not have otherwise been, and made the gaffs of Obama more salient.
