Today’s Knee-Slapper… Media Pretends Obama Gives a Crap About Deficit

Comedy Gold.

(Lonely Conservative)
The state-run media wants you to believe that Barack Obama gives a crap about the national deficit.
The Hill reported:

President Obama and Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) both sought to get the upper hand Monday in the fight over reining in the federal deficit.

While Obama invited Senate Democrats and Republicans to the White House for meetings later this week, Boehner told a New York audience that the $14.3 trillion debt ceiling should be raised only if spending is cut by an amount greater than the increase to the borrowing limit.

That’s a knee-slapper…
President Obama tripled the national deficit his first year in office. His second year wasn’t any better.

Obama increased the debt by nearly $4 trillion in two years.

Two months ago Obama warned that cutting government spending would hurt the economy.
He has no intention of reducing the deficit.

More proof:
The Obama Administration just redistributed Amtrak and rail projects to 15 states after the Florida governor canceled plans for the $2 billion high-speed train service in his state.
