Obama Turns Lying and Hypocrisy into Art Forms

The joke's on you, America

If there is one thing Barack Hussein Obama is good at it’s deception. The guy is one of the boldest liars I’ve even witnessed.

Yesterday he shuffled off to Buffalo to tout this great economy he created. Naturally, he led with the old blame it on Bush meme we’ve been hearing for the past year and a half.

Having just inherited a $1.3 trillion deficit from the last administration, the last thing I wanted to do was spend money on a recovery package, or help the American auto industry keep its doors open, or prevent the collapse of the Wall Street banks whose irresponsibility helped cause this crisis.

No mention of his own role as a US Senator in creating the mess he inherited, or that he’s taken the deficit he helped create and expanded it exponentially with no end in sight. Then he started lying. (More on those irresponsible Wall Street banks in a moment.)

But I can say this beyond a shadow of a doubt: Today, we are heading in the right direction. Those tough steps we took – they’re working. Despite all the naysayers – who were predicting failure a year ago – our economy is growing again. Next month it will be stronger than last month. And next year will be better than this year. Last month, we gained 290,000 jobs – the largest increase in four years and the fourth month in a row that we’ve added jobs. And last month also brought the largest increase in manufacturing employment since 1998 – a good sign for companies like this one.

This guy is too much. Unemployment went up in April. Tax receipts to the government went down in April. The number of Americans on food stamps reached an all new high. Heck, Obama quadrupled the deficit in a year! And he’s touting his economic success? Does he really believe we’re all that stupid?

He went on to talk about how he needs to do more of what he’s been doing to ensure economic progress. No mention of the bailout of Europe with our tax dollars, or that unemployment is expected to go up. Think about the mess his predecessor is going to inherit.

He then traveled to New York City – where he just cut anti-terrorism funding and constantly bashes the city’s biggest industry – to raise money for the mid-term elections. He continued blaming Republicans for everything that’s wrong in the world.

Obama said Republicans have “done their best to gum up the works” and said they generated much of the country’s fiscal deficit that they now complain about.

“Their basic attitude has been, if Democrats lose, we win. After they drove the car in the ditch, made it as difficult as possible for us to pull it back, now they want the keys back. No. They can’t drive. We don’t want to have to go back in the ditch,” he said.

Talk about a ditch! He and his comrades not only drove us into the ditch, they dug it!

Oddly, the evil Wall Street fat cats who at one time contributed more to Obama than anyone else, were nowhere to be found.

Wall Street bigs snubbed President Obama last night at a big-bucks campaign fund-raiser at The St. Regis hotel in Midtown.

The gala — where tickets went for as much as $50,000 a couple and whose proceeds were going to Democratic candidates — featured stars such as Sarah Jessica Parker and Democratic Party regulars but few, if any, executives from the city’s leading financial institutions.That was no accident, according to Democrats on Capitol Hill and Wall Street sources who say those in the financial industry are tired of being the punching bag for Obama and Democrats crafting legislation to tightly regulate them.

This guy has turned lying and hypocrisy into art forms. If he weren’t so dangerous it would really be something to behold.
