Someone, a 70-year old male member here asked me what has Obama lied about. He doesn't believe that the Prez has lied about anything. Can you add anything to this list?

    Obama has cut spending. That is he's cut HIS spending. Most of his spending is what other people ramped up and he has to pay for it. Surely you know this? If you don't you haven't been reading up on what he has actually spent himself as opposed to what he has to pay for that others created. 40% of what we spend is on medicare/medicaid, 40% is on military machine, only 20% is discretionary (and much of that isn't really "discretionary"_
    spending

    Bush lied and people died. Obama didn't create the deficit in the first place, Bush did. we had a surplus economy and Bush gave ti away in the form of tax breaks, we'd have had a 1.3 trillion surplus by now if we had kept with the Clinton fiscal policy. All the rest of this rant is just idiotic conjecture.

    Hmmm, . . . so you are telling me that Obama has NOT lied??? We are talking abot OBAMA, not Bush, why can't you liberals get that through your thick heads? OBAMA has been in office almost 3.5 years and Liberals wagging fingers are still pointing BACKWARDS!

    Sheesh, you'd think they would get up to speed and see what Oblamer has done to this country!

    Obama inherited this mess and the GOP had the audacity from day one to tell him their only agenda was to make him a one term President. There job is to serve ALL the people equally. There has been nothing but lies and conjecture from the party of NO. They created this mess and they're doing nothing to help solve the problems.

    You posted, "Obama inherited this mess and the GOP had the audacity from day one to tell him their only agenda was to make him a one term President." Unquote.

    That is a blatant lie. Everyone that voted for him was sooo light in their loafers, excited and crying and all dreamy-eyed about the HISTORIC FIRST BLACK PRESIDENT that the media gave him a pass on everything he did. Even the Republicans didn't open their mouths for fear of being called a racist.

    Everyone was kissing his behind, so don't give me that crap "from day one". Even the late night TV pundits were walking on eggshells with the historic new black president. He was 'off limits' to make jokes about.

    Your dog don't hunt - amp it up Electrician! Your argument has some shorts in it.

    OK, the second day. There is NO lie. The GOP has constantly and consistiently refused to cooperate in the normal deliberation of Government. Attaching "ransom" and "blackmail to the bills in the Congress, knowing full well the Democrats in the Senate won't pass them. Get a life.

    BS - No one 'touched' that bi-racial man for the first clucking YEAR he was in office. If you'd get off MSNBC you MIGHT know something.

    Honestly, if we were to make a big production over every time a politician made a promise and didn't keep it, we'd be swimming in media coverage. That real matter is that he was dumb and/or arrogant enough to make promises that were entirely out of his hands to even begin with. Now, yes he has broken some such as spending, but that's his fault for thinking he could do it and our fault for thinking he would.

    Doesn't it strike at your reason chords that this President enjoys a pass from all of MSM? They are supposed to be working and reporting the news without predujuice. Journalist USED TO investigate the stories out of DC - but now they are simply parrots.

    He was indeed dumb/arrogant to make the promises that he clearly was in no position to make, but he's STILL lying to us EVERY day.

    I am sorry that sooo many people were seduced by him in 2008, I, Praise God, was NOT.

    Honestly there isn't enough evidence that says he's not a citizen, in part because of how ambiguous the Natural Born Clause is in the Constitution. And, the evidence given comes from other countries or radically biased Republicans/Conservatives.

    But yes, he is an old style Democrat who remembers the days when Democrats championed individual liberty and free interprise. Like many he has not been able to see that the DNC leadership has passed and now champions Group Politics and the Supremacy of the State.
