Blaming Bush for deficits in 2009, 2010, and 2011 isn’t just wrong, it’s a flat-out lie, and a very self-serving lie at that

Repeat the lie enough times and it becomes the truth in the minds of the Sheep.

How could a billionaire have a 1% tax rate? I would like to see a copy of one of those Form 1040 tax returns. The names, address, and social security numbers could be redacted. I want to see the adjusted gross income and all of the forms and schedules that brings the billionaire down to a 1% marginal rate. I won’t hold my breath waiting for the White House press corp to ask any questions regarding this.

Obama’s claim of the “slowest job growth,” in fact, includes the loss of jobs under his administration.

. . . and, be it remembered, Bush invited Obama to indicate his policy preference in order to get started on economic recovery even before inauguration day.

But Obama didn't even vote "present."

If they [tax rate cuts] damaged job creation, then we wouldn’t have seen the explosive job growth we did in 2004-2006, when the economy added over 6 million jobs.

That comes to a rate of 170,000 jobs a month - substantially less than the 207,000 jobs a month in 1992-2000, before the tax rate cuts.
