When your elected officials lie to you they are committing a crime!

"18 U.S. Code § 1001 - Statements or entries generally: 

(a)Except as otherwise provided in this section, whoever, in any matter within the jurisdiction of the executive, legislative, or judicial branch of the Government of the United States, knowingly and willfully—

(1)falsifies, conceals, or covers up by any trick, scheme, or device a material fact;

(2)makes any materially false, fictitious, or fraudulent statement or representation; or

(3)makes or uses any false writing or document knowing the same to contain any materially false, fictitious, or fraudulent statement or entry;

shall be fined under this title, imprisoned not more than 5 years or, if the offense involves international or domestic terrorism (as defined in section 2331), imprisoned not more than 8 years, or both. If the matter relates to an offense under chapter 109A, 109B, 110, or 117, or section 1591, then the term of imprisonment imposed under this section shall be not more than 8 years." 

The above code is clear to me....is it to you? Sounds like when an government official, knowingly lies (repeats the same lie) he or she is shall be fined and or imprisoned. The 1001 does not differentiate between a Congressman, Senator, Judge or even the President. 
Just thought you would like to know.
I know, no one has the guts to file charges. But I just thought you would like to know.
