Our VP, the serial liar

[barfo]

Did the President run on the $787B spending program? Did he run on tripling the size of the Federal debt? Did he run on $1T+ deficits in perpetuity? Nope. He ran on "Change" and "Hope" and allowed people to fill in the blanks for themselves.

Sounds like a pretty smart campaign strategy.

The problem is that he was declared to be new and different. Instead, it's like Pete Townshend wrote--meet the new boss; same as the old boss. It looks like the country just got fooled again.

It looks like that to you, because you don't agree with the direction things are going.

If you really think things are exactly the same as they were under Bush, then it seems like you'd be happy, being a Bush voter and all. If you think things have changed, then I'm not sure why you are claiming they haven't.

Hmm, I wasn't aware I had voted for President Bush in 2004. Your assumption is telling, however.


Let's see what's the same

Are we still in Iraq?

Are we still in Afghanistan?

Are we still spending beyond our means to pay?

Is the economy still headed downward?

Is Europe still being uncooperative with our aims?


Now let's look at all the things President Obama has changed

Appointing tax cheats to cabinet positions.

A stock market lower on almost every index.

A higher unemployment rate.

Increased deficits.

Higher taxes.

Increased Federal debt.

Sending Predator drones into Pakistan without their consent. They are an ally after all.


Now let's go through some of the things he's promised that he has broken

Five days to study bills before he signed them.

Tougher rules on lobbyists.

Tax credit for companies that create jobs.

Tax free withdrawls from retirement accounts.



Change We Can Believe In!

Sorry, I had thought that you had said in a prior thread that you did vote for him. If you didn't, then I was mistaken.

In 2004, neither candidate deserved my vote. As much as I supported President Bush' foreign policy, I thought his domestic spending was reckless.

Did you vote for a 3rd party candidate?
