We've heard Obama's lies before.

This new ad from the RNC shows there’s no need to sling mud at Dear Leader, just play his own sound bites over and over to demonstrate what a SCoaMF he is.

Obama’s hypocritical attack ad portrays Romney as job-killing ‘vampire’

“Obama Vampire” Photoshop parody by Gibbwake

President Obama’s campaign has just launched a dishonest new ad called, “Steel,” which twists the truth in order to attack former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney’s record on job creation. The ad attempts to blame Mitt Romney for the 750 workers who lost their jobs at GS Technologies, a steel mill in Kansas City, Mo., that was bought by Romney’s private equity firm Bain Capital. The ad paints Romney as out of touch with the needs of the local workers and concerned only with Bain’s own profits. “We view Mitt Romney as a job destroyer,” says one former mill worker in the ad. Another calls Bain “a vampire. They came in and sucked the life out of us.” What the Obama campaign...

Obama misquotes Reagan to support “Buffett Tax”

Just when I think President Obama couldn’t possibly stoop lower, he does something to prove me wrong. This time, he’s deliberately misquoting President Reagan, implying that The Gipper would have somehow approved of Obama’s “Buffett Tax” of 30% on wealthy Americans. But this just proves that Obama must have failed reading comprehension in school. President Barack Obama invoked Republican icon Ronald Reagan Wednesday in a bid to gain support for his Buffett Rule, saying he’d change the name to the “Reagan Rule” if it meant gaining GOP support. Obama brings up a speech Reagan made (see below) in which he promotes a letter received from a wealthy executive who paid a lower tax rate than his secretary. “I’m not the...

Seeing through Obama’s “Buffett Tax” lunacy

Posted 11 Apr 2012 in 2012 election, Barack Obama, class warfare, economy, lies, politics, taxes
thebuffetttax

Our Divider-In-Chief is ramping up his “fairness” rhetoric and hoping that none of his sheeple notice the abysmal job he’s done with the American economy. With a rousing speech on Tuesday to a receptive university audience of about 5,000 in this battleground state, Mr. Obama defined the coming contest as a clash of philosophies: His argument that tax fairness and the common good demand the richest Americans pay at least as much as middle-income taxpayers do, contrasted with Republicans’ opposition to any tax increases as job killers and class warfare, even at the cost of deep cuts in domestic programs. Of course, his argument is utter nonsense. The “richest Americans” pay a lot more taxes than the middle class...

VIDEO: Obama’s recycled demagoguery

obama_same_tired_rhetoric

We all know Obama doesn’t have any new ideas, but this is ridiculous. The palace guard media failed to catch the the fact that Dear Leader is recycling the same demagoguery that’s already been fact-checked and proven false. But the RNC caught it and pointed it out in their latest ad. Candidate stump speeches are frequently boilerplate, but that is to be expected since they are generally just the same speech delivered to different audiences in different locations in a short period of time. But these two speeches by Obama were supposed to be Presidential responses to different budgets. That’s why it’s rather surprising that entire sections have been just cut-and-pasted. What’s even funnier is that you’ll notice that Obama stammers on...

Roundup on Obama’s 2012 State of the Union address

Posted 25 Jan 2012 in Barack Obama, class warfare, lies, politics
State-of-the-Union-2012

Mark Twain famously remarked there are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies and statistics. It’s too bad Twain didn’t live to hear an Obama “State of the Union” speech, he would have said that there are actually four kind of lies. In an attempt to lure back disillusioned Democrats who are frustrated by Obama’s apparent failures in office, last night’s speech offered a distraction loaded with the Democrat Party’s tried-and-true class warfare and agitprop. It was as though Obama was channeling Groucho Marx: “Who are you going to believe, me or your lying eyes?”  His performance in the well of the House of Representatives was just a long, drawn-out way of saying, “Don’t look at my record of failure and the steady...

AP calls BS on President Obama’s “Jobs Bill” sales pitch

Posted 10 Oct 2011 in Barack Obama, economy, lies
“Perhaps you haven't been telling the truth, Pinocchio.”

After years of being unashamedly in the tank for Dear Leader, there are a few reporters at the Associated Press who are finally coming out of their Kool-Aid comas and realizing the need to point out President Obama’s blatant lies and demagoguery. Just three weeks ago, the AP fact-checked Obama’s class warfare rhetoric when he disingenuously claimed that billionaire investor Warren Buffett pays a lower tax rate than his secretary. And now they’re having to do it again since the President just won’t quit lying about his so-called “Jobs Bill.” WASHINGTON (AP) — In President Barack Obama’s sales pitch for his jobs bill, there are two versions of reality: The one in his speeches and the one actually...

Obligatory response to “PSA for Teabaggers”

PSA for Teabaggers

There’s a video which is making the rounds on Facebook and Google+, posted by Leftists who can’t stand Americans who identify with the Tea Party movement. In it, two young people interrupt their vacation because they’re on a (gasp) public beach. Instead of colluding with Socialism, these two people decide instead to vacation in sunny Somalia. An announcer then goes on to establish Somalia as a Libertarian Paradise, and goes on to equate the African nation’s poverty and rampant violence as the ideal of the Conservative movement and the polar opposite to nanny-state big government. The YouTube description on this little hate-fest reads:  “You should be forcibly moved to Somalia to live in your libertarian utopia.” This video —...

Obama: Public is ‘sold’ on tax increases in a debt-ceiling deal. Rasmussen: Actually, no, they’re not.

“The trouble with our liberal friends is not that they’re ignorant; it’s just that they know so much that isn’t so.” ~Ronald Reagan, October 27, 1964 As Dear Leader continues his efforts to bluff Republicans into issuing him a blank check for more tax and spend insanity, he let loose with this little bit of demagoguery: President Obama on Friday kept up the pressure on Republicans to agree to revenue increases in a deal to raise the debt ceiling, claiming 80 percent of the public supports Democrats’ demand for tax increases. “The American people are sold,” Obama said. “The problem is members of Congress are dug in ideologically.” [Yeah, and President “I will not yield” Obama isn't dug in ideologically....

White House staffers got raises nearly three times the national average. And (surprise!) Obama lied about it.

obama-twitter-townhall-7-6-11

During his Twitter town hall yesterday, President Obama tried desperately to reconnect with the young people who helped get him elected in 2008. And to counteract his two and a half years’ worth of effete “let them eat tax increases” snobbery, he tried to pull a Clintonian “I feel your pain” by claiming that his staff hasn’t had a raise in over two years. “By the way, people who work in the White House, they’ve had their pay frozen since I came in, our…our…our high-wage folks. So, they haven’t had a raise in…in two and a half years, and that’s appropriate because a lot of ordinary folks out there haven’t either. In fact, they’ve had their pay cut in...
