The Serial Liar in Chief
Please remember as you read this, many Democrats know this is all a lie and they do not care. That means we aren't just talking about ideological differences anymore.
I don't bother to fisk Obama's speeches anymore because they are ALL lies. There ends up being so much deceit refuting it ends up many times longer than the speech...
5 big lies in Obama's economic fairness speech
"I'm surprised that IDB can only find 5 big lies in Obama's Kansas economic speech. But 5 is a good start:"
"Bush's tax cuts on the rich only managed to produced 'massive deficits' and the 'slowest job growth in half a century.' Budget data make clear that Obama's spending hikes, not Bush's tax cuts, produced today's massive deficits.
[...]
During the Bush years, 'we had weak regulation, we had little oversight.' This is patently false. Regulatory staffing climbed 42% under Bush, and regulatory spending shot up 50%, according to a Washington University in St. Louis/George Washington University study. And the number of Federal Register pages - a proxy for regulatory activity - was far higher under Bush than any previous president."
"It is probably too much to ask the press to point out Obama's lies this campaign season. However, Glenn Kessler at the WaPo blog Fact Checker examined the same Obama speech and gave it '3 Pinocchio's' out of a possible 4. Awarding three Pinocchio's means that there was 'Significant factual error and/or obvious contradictions'"
Obama’s Kansas speech: some suspect facts
Only WaPo editors could take 3/4 and turn it into "some" and "suspect" for this dangerous, Marxist President.
"But he should not suggest that the Bush tax cuts were aimed only at the wealthy, since that is not correct."
That's from THE WASHINGTON POST! But class warfare is what the Marxists who now run the now radical Democrat Party live for. Envy and hate is all they have to offer.
"Obama’s claim of the “slowest job growth,” in fact, includes the loss of jobs under his administration."
"The data showed that the biggest contributor to the disappearance of projected surpluses was increased spending, which accounted for 36.5 percent of the decline in the nation’s fiscal position, followed by incorrect CBO estimates, which accounted for 28 percent. The Bush tax cuts (along with some Obama tax cuts) were responsible for just 24 percent."
"Thus it is simply wrong to blame only the Bush tax cuts for the deficits now faced by the country, especially three years into another presidential term."
" “Some billionaires have a tax rate as low as 1 percent - 1 percent. That is the height of unfairness.”
This is a striking statistic. But the only evidence that the White House could offer for it was a clip of a conversation on Bloomberg TV, in which correspondent Gigi Stone made this assertion"
"Moreover, it is certainly surprising that the White House would rely on such a dubious, unverified source for a major presidential address."
It's not surprising to those who have been paying attention. Center for American Progress and ThinkProgress? But remember, he isn't a radical and George Soros isn't pulling the strings. Four years after so many mocked or questioned the supposedly hyperbolic or unfair accusations toward Obama those accusations continue to be proven not only true, but not having gone far enough.
