Once again, President Barack Obama repeated his outrageous lie that Republicans want to raise taxes on the middle class during a conference call last week.
USA Today reported:
In a conference call with political supporters, Obama said: “We are going to go right back at Republicans in showing why the things that they wanted in this compromise don’t make sense.”
One of those fights will be over the very thing that some Democrats are angry about: The two-year extension of George W. Bush-era tax cuts for the nation’s wealthiest Americans.
“When they expire in two years, I will fight to end them,” Obama said. “Just as I suspect the Republican Party may fight to end the middle-class tax cuts that I’ve championed and that they’ve opposed.”
When have Republicans opposed tax cuts for the middle class or anyone?
This guy is horribly dishonest. And, of course, the state-run media just continues to let him get away with it.
Fortunately, there are a few Republicans who are not afraid to challenge Obama on his lies.
Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) corrected the president after he made this same outrageous statement last week:
“He said for instance…that Republicans want to end middle class tax cuts. I thought ‘are you kidding me? The Republicans want to end middle class tax cuts?’ He said that it’s his job to grow the economy. He made one kinda odd statement after the other. And he said Republicans oppose various credits for the middle class. Those are flat out lies!”

It really is a shame that we have a president who is so careless and dishonest with his talking points.

In the lamestream media’s defense. If they actually called him on it and noted his lies, deceptions, screw ups, illegal behavior and plans to bankrupt this nation and usurp his constitutional authority they would not have room for sports, local news, obituaries, weather or articles that virtually get on their knees and blow him

He’s no different than some of the trolls we get around here. Inaccurate and dishonest.

If the Tax cuts that aren’t go through Obama’s media will implode ..I’m so looking forward to that. I love to watch the leftist scumbags in hyper meltdown. Good times … It’s all I want for Christmas .. The MSLSD to take obama apart…
Old Fan commented:
Bachmann is outstanding.
So glad we have given the Republicans the Majority in the HOUSE.
This 2012 we have to take back the Executive and the Senate.
It is simply a must – no more DNC TITANIC.
Z commented:
Bachmann is a good person. She needs to reject the pork wagon though.

Obama: That’s exactly what I said and if you don’t believe me I will get my big brother Bill to tell you it is true.
Cher Cropper commented:
Obama’s whole life is a lie. This is why you can’t access any info such as school records that others have made public. He’s a media creation and the truth must be kept hidden. Money is keeping all the secrets hidden but hopefully someday the money runs out.

Where is that lunatic wikileaks when you want access to Obigears school records, birth records, passport info and previous national security info on him via FBI, CIA,NSA etc
I doubt he was able to pass most security checks with his background
