OVERWHELMING Falsehoods Created by Obama
Date Posted: Thursday 21-Jan-2010[Often politicians will tell lies to prevent personal damage to their reputations and their agendas, but this guy! One has to wonder, especially considering he ran on a platform of "transparency" where his personal records and historial documents are and why they are not freely available to his employers - the US citizens. Sands]
The accumulated weight of Obama’s deceit is overwhelming:
* During his campaign for the presidency and since, Obama repeatedly assured us that he would protect Medicare against cuts; but he now presses for passage of bills that include savage cuts in Medicare.
* To obtain passage of his first stimulus bill, Obama assured us that 90% of the jobs created would be in the private sector; but as he well knew, most of them were to be in the public sector.
* Early in the health care debate, Obama assured us that he had not said that he favored a single payer system; but he was on record as having said exactly that.
* Obama gave primary voters a firm assurance that if he became the nominee of the Democratic party he would (unlike Hillary Clinton) abide by the campaign finance limits of public funding; but as soon as he became the party’s nominee, he reneged on that pledge.
* During the presidential campaign Obama criticized the presence of former lobbyists in the Bush administration and solemnly assured us that he would appoint no lobbyists to his administration; but once elected he proceeded to appoint even more lobbyists than his predecessors.
* Obama criticized the size of George Bush’s deficit and promised to stop deficit spending if elected; but he has already quadrupled the size of the deficit he objected to and recklessly continues new federal spending in the trillions.
* When campaigning Obama criticized bills before the congress that were too long for anyone to be able to read and promised to stop that; but the bills he has been backing throughout his first year are infinitely longer (2000+ pages) than the ones he criticized.
* Candidate Obama promised an end to the corruption of earmarks and pork, but in the bills he has supported this year there have been more and bigger earmarks than ever before.
* Candidate Obama promised us that CIA personnel involved in the interrogation of terrorists would not be prosecuted; but his administration is now doing exactly that.
* Obama assured a joint session of Congress that the health bill he supported (pre-Stupak) would not provide public funding for abortions; but bitter resistance on the part of House Democrats to inclusion of language to that effect soon proved that it did.
* Candidate Obama promised that he would make sure that there was always enough time for the public to read legislation before it was enacted; but he has done exactly the opposite, repeatedly pressing for even faster passage of even longer bills.
* Candidate Obama met fears that he would be a tax and spend liberal by promising, emphatically and repeatedly, that those earning under $200,000 would see no increase in their taxes of any kind; but he now urges passage of a healthcare bill that breaks that pledge in many different ways, and his unrestrained increase in federal spending makes more tax increases inevitable.
* Candidate Obama promised bipartisanship and an end to partisan bickering; but in a display of especially ruthless partisanship his allies have shut Republicans out of all key meetings on his health care initiative, with the unprecedented result that domestic legislation of historic importance garnered not a single Republican vote in the Senate.
* Candidate Obama criticized his opponent’s plan to tax employer paid healthcare benefits, and promised he would not tax them; but the bill he now backs will do just that.
* Obama had promised that he would not sign a healthcare bill that would add one dime to the federal deficit; but the bill he now backs adds trillions in new federal spending, offset only by new sources of revenue that are both uncertain and more properly seen as offsetting the already existing deficit.
* Obama coerced congress into passing his stimulus bill by promising that if it were passed unemployment could go no higher then 8%; but unemployment is now at 10%, and he could not possibly have had good reason to exclude that possibility.
* Obama promised that his cap and trade legislation will create jobs; but its massive tax increases will certainly hobble the economy and destroy jobs, while green jobs in significant numbers can at best be hoped for, but never promised.
* Obama has repeatedly assured the American people that if they like their current health plan they can keep it; but the House bill which he supported created huge incentives for employers to drop their coverage and shift their members to a public option.
* Obama has just as often assured the public that under his health plan everyone will be able to keep their current doctor; but many are certain to lose their doctors when ObamaCare’s large cuts in Medicare funding induce more doctors to withdraw from Medicare coverage, as they also would were employers to transfer patients to a public option to save money.
* Obama assured a joint session of Congress that his health plan would not fund illegal aliens; but his allies had been busy voting down amendments to that effect. (This was the point of Joe Wilson’s outburst.)
* Obama claimed that John Deere’s CEO had told him that Deere would begin hiring again as a result of the stimulus bill; but that individual immediately announced that he had said no such thing, and that Deere would in fact be laying off more workers.
* Candidate Obama promised that Guantanamo would be closed by January 1, 2010; but it is still open.
* Candidate Obama promised that his administration (unlike his predecessor’s) would be so transparent that TV cameras (C-Span) would be there for key deliberations; but an unprecedented level of secrecy prevails as the final stages of Obamacare are negotiated behind closed doors and kept so secret that even the Senate majority whip admitted that he had no idea what was going on. Requests for Obama to honor the promise of C-Span cameras are being ignored.
* To gain traction for his attempt to return a would-be socialist dictator in Honduras to power, Obama claimed that he had been overthrown in an illegal coup; but the congressional research service pointed out correctly that ex-President Zelaya had been removed for constitutionally sufficient cause by legal and constitutional means.
* Obama claims that he wants a public option only to increase choice and competition; but the House bill would clearly reduce choice both by squeezing unsubsidized private health plans out of the market, and by setting rigid conditions on acceptable plans that would narrow available options.
* Candidate Obama claimed that violent radical Bill Ayers was just another guy in his neighborhood; but the record shows that the two had worked closely together.
* Obama assured us that his stimulus bill would create or save a million jobs; but he was claiming as fact what could never have been more than a wild (and highly improbable) guess, and his more recent attempts to justify that guess have been fraudulent.
* Obama assured us that his health plan would never ration care, or “pull the plug” on grandma; but the legislation he backs sets up panels to make crucial decisions on when to withhold care, and it makes such deep cuts in Medicare that rationing is inevitable.
* Obama now assures us that health insurance premiums will not go up if ObamaCare becomes law, insisting indignantly that people who say this have not read the bill; but the legislation forces insurers to cover preexisting conditions, which will compel them to raise premiums substantially.

Hi Fed Up With The Lies,
I just want to say that on this site I'm going to be putting some footage about Muslims that you don't get to see often. It is hidden away.
You blame everything on Israel, but I disagree.
There is a war on the go, and a lot of it is a propaganda war too.

Eish ! Grab your chin and shake your head.) as my countrymen say and do !
(No English word for African disbelief.)
Try it - it says it all.
1931 taught USA nothing it seems. Live too long and you can experience history repeating itself - ad nauseum.
Man is smart enough to make the money but stupid enough to let his greed make the money disappear.
The majority so called "youth-of-today" (who are in their 30's) have the power of the vote. Like RSA you get the monster "they" (youth) voted for.
Good news ? USA can get rid of a non-performer.
Not so Africa - they either are killed by the barrel of a gun or die of old age and still in power. Its works for Africa.
Money rules the world. Money ruins the world.

"Hi All,
The source for this article that Sands posted
is FrontPag magazine and they normally do their
homework well. I've never come across them
falsifying their data.
But I am curious about the comments that Obama
is prosecuting the CIA guys. Perhaps its being
done on the quiet? Does anyone have more info
on it?
For me, personally, I think prosecuting the CIA
is a bad, bad idea.
You don't around ripping the nuts off the

The US and Israel are killing innocent
women and children in order to keep
up the myth of "Al-Qaeda" going.
How Israel Created The Myth of Al-Qaeda by Seymour Hersh
http://www.inthemix.com.au/forum/showthread.p...
The idea is to get the Muslims to fight back and
when they do they call them "terrorists".
Innocent Arab women and children may
be your enemy but they are not mine.
"Al-Qaeda" is a bunch of US mercenaries
and Mossad agents running around committing
acts of senseless violence and trying
to recruit Arabs to act as patsies to
blame it on.
Fake Alqaeda: http://whatreallyhappened.com/WRHARTICLES/fak...
The name "Al-Qaeda" is probably a Mossad joke.
"Ana raicha Al Qaeda" is colloquial Arabic
for "I'm going to the toilet".
Al-Qaeda, Paul Johnson and two American Officers: http://www.kawther.info/K20040622A.html
The Israeli government has being using flesh
disintegrating chemical weapons against the
Palestinians.
US Officers planned the Beit Hanoun Massacre: http://www.kawther.info/K20061112A.html
The same chemcial weapons may have been
used on the Panamanians during the invasion
of Panama.
The Panama Deception: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/style/lo...
because, according to Ari Ben-Menashe, Ariel Sharon
worked with the CIA in supplying the Contras weapons
bought with drug money.
Inside the Secret U.S.-Israeli Arms Network: http://www.thirdworldtraveler.com/Israel/Doll...
Just like 9/11 it was all covered up because of
the involvement of Israel.
"Truth no longer will out, unless it absolves Israel.
That is why virtually nothing significant emerged
from the congressional hearings on the Reagan
administration's arms-for-hostages dealings with
Iran. Because every line of investigation led
directly to Israel, no single line was pursued
for long. The result is a near-total information
blackout. Extremists in the government of Prime
Minister Yitzhak Shamir count on it, and conduct
themselves with total disregard for American public
opinion. "

Stop murdering the citizens of the world to steal oil and wealth! Stop the murder/war machine industry of this country and end the corporate running of this country! I am ashamed to be an american these days and almost ashamed even to be a human being. I have been told by many friends that these web sites are censured, monitored, and basically becoming a tool for the corporate run agendas. Please, if everybody sent thier opinions on these atrocites they would certainly overwhelm the corporate criminal media sham! It is time for all of Gods soldiers to stand up! Stop saying you are a Christian and START ACTING LIKE A CHRISTIAN! Pastor William

What Americans need to know.
When you start with a false presumption, then what follows is irrelevant.
False presumtion: Mr Obama is the President elected 'by the people'
TRUTH: He is the CEO of the CORPORATE entity UNITED STATES and on the Board of the FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM.
He is NOT the De Jure (lawful) President. He is the President of the 'defacto' fictional entity Incorporated in Delaware.
Just ask yourself is the CEO of a Corporation elected or appointed'? ANSWER: appointed
Obama's birth certificate is irrelevant because it he is not required to have one for his boss (the Corporate US and PRIVATELY HELD FEDERAL RESERVE).
Just as a side note and food for thought - did you realize that the Secretary of State, Secretary of the Treasury and the Attorney General have to DENOUNCE their US (corporate) citizenship before they take their oaths? THINK ABOUT IT!!
This is due to the requirement that they be able to deal with the private side as well as on the public.
If you are an 'American', Obama is NOT your president.
If you are a (corporate) US Citizen then he is your CEO. But he is running the Corporation and YOU are not who elects him - you are the resources he uses to attempt to keep the Corporation afloat.
And if you believe he is YOUR elected President, then please explain to me why he shows absolutely NO concern for your wellbeing and bails out the guys who have been looting you.
When you are at your job, and push comes to shove, don't you usually (if not ALWAYS) do what your BOSS TELLS you to do - and the hell with what anyone else tells you to?
So ask yourself WHY would Obama do what he is doing?
Isnt it painfully obvious WHO HE WORKS FOR!!!?

Thank you for making these points so clear!
I hope all of your readers will support efforts to legally force President Obama to show us his original hand written or typed birth certificate because
computer laser printers did not exist in 1961.

Hey man thanks for the list of attacks, I was working on a Point-counterpoint type thing. I did want to mention though that you should try to keep your premises rooted in fact instead of conjecture. Shouting someone elses opinion only makes you look like a monkey. Argue fact though and just deal with the fact that it\'s less sensational, and you leave your oponent silent, or using the usual diversion tatctic of talking about something comepletely unrelated, which more and more people are starting to spot.

'Candidate Obama promised us that CIA personnel involved in the interrogation of terrorists would not be prosecuted; but his administration is now doing exactly that.' How could it possibly be a bad thing for a government leader to prosecute torturers? Are you insane? Or maybe its dellusional since I havnt seen any articals saying he is prosecuting alleged cia torturers.

What terrorists?
Should say "alleged terrorists" or
"patsies framed as terrorists".
