“By every economic measure, we are better off now than we were when I took office. You wouldn’t know it, but we are,” the president said Friday.
That’s right, the president — the president of the United States, mind you — says Americans are better off, they just don’t know it.
That is the height to which the president has raised his level of mendacity. He has the sheer audacity to tell Americans that he has successfully turned the economy around, that things are all good, but that there are no real quantifiable indicators by which they could ever know that.
In fact, Mr. Obama says Americans have never had it so good.
“Over the past 51 months, our businesses have created 9.4 million new jobs,” he said at a feel-good stop in Minnesota. “Our housing market is rebounding. Our auto industry is booming. Our manufacturing sector is adding jobs for the first time since the 1990s. We’ve made our tax code fairer. We’ve cut our deficits by more than half. More than 8 million Americans have signed up for private insurance plans through the Affordable Care Act.”
Of course, as usual with the president, none of that is true. In 2007, there were 146.6 million Americans employed. Last month, there were 145.7 million people in the workforce. But it’s all worse than that. The labor force participation rate dropped more than 3 percentage points, which equals nearly 8 million people. Now, just 62.8 percent of working-age Americans hold jobs, a dismal number that’s the lowest in 35 years....

Um. if I were better off, I would DEFINITELY know it.
When I see friends and relatives in Europe and South America faring better than I am, then I know something is wrong.
He's worse than a liar ... he's a bullshitter.
A liar has some regard for the truth, if only to conceal it.
A bullshitter simply spews whatever comes to mind that he thinks will somehow work to his (temporary) advantage, with no regard whatsoever for the truth. Most politicians are more bullshitter than liar, but Bam-Bam has a black-belt in it.
The president is like a relative of mine. She’ll lie to you when you know she’s lying and she KNOWS you know she is lying, but she just lies anyway!
It’s a shame that everything you post is to foster hate against Mormons. You’ve been doing it for years here.
Doesn’t that get old ? It certainly is sad.
It's a wonderful thing that you NOW seem to have something to post other than your well worm "3 minutes hate" thingy.
It’s a shame that you have NEVER learned the difference between MormonS and MormonISM.
But then; it is MUCH easier to defend poor Mormons, as deceived as they are; instead of MormonISM; which is a hellish heresy.
Oh; hecky durn NO!!.
What gets OLD is 80,000 mindless robots freely convinced to give up a year or so of their young lives; wandering the earth, pounding on doors, trying to sell their religious Avon product.
HMMMmmm...
What is it about Mormon SCRIPTURE the fosters HATE???
