Obama Defends Budget Proposal, Lies Repeatedly
town hall ^ | 2/15/11 | Guy Benson

Posted on 02/15/2011 6:43:24 PM PST by Nachum

In which the President of the United States uncorks one bald, falsifiable claim after another regarding his calamitous budget proposal:

"[My budget] puts us on a path to pay for what we spend by the middle of the decade."

To the average American, that sounds like we'll balance the nation's ledger within five years. If you parse the sentence carefully, though, you'll notice that the president only makes the questionable claim that his blueprint will "put us on a path" toward that goal -- which it never comes close to achieving. I'm once again compelled to quote ABC News' Jake Tapper:

"At no point in the president’s 10-year projection would the U.S. government spend less than it's taking in."

Just like when Clinton claimed sex wasn’t sex, Obama is claiming a lie is okay. Great example for this generation of kids.

He lies.
We know he lies.
He knows that we know that he lies.
He doesn't care.

And the media thinks he's so gosh darn smart that those lies must actually be true.

Joe Wilson should get on TV and state unequivocally .... regarding Obama’s Budget.... “YOU LIE”......

He seems to be the only Repub that has actually said those words regarding Obamacare and all its fallout.

When you declare war on white America as Obama did years ago, lies are just one of many tools available.

Stalin had his five year plans. Obama has to top that and roll out his six year plan!

Obama at Andrews

Obama failed to include cuts to entitlement spending in the budget proposal.

Smoke and mirrors! No cuts whatsoever, just assume that revenues are going up!

This genius Secretary of Energy we have named Steven Chu, says the budget is part of Obama's plan to win the future.

Dick Durbin [D-IL] says Obama's budget will help create jobs and put us on a path towards reducing our debt.

All BS, all the time!

Obviously, Zero learned and honed his budgeting skills in the Illinois legislature. Just look at the current Illinois budget.
