The Obama administration is like a Burger King franchise – home of the Whoppers. White House Chief of Staff Jack Lew appeared on Fox News Sunday this morning with Chris Wallace and flat-out lied about the Obamacare mandate and penalty not being a tax. Amazingly, he even denied that the Supreme Court upheld the rotten law only because it is a tax. He continued the lies even when Wallace repeatedly confronted him with the truth. He didn’t even back down after Wallace played the clip of Obama’s lawyer arguing that it is a tax, although he seemed a bit deflated after that. Watch:
These people are incapable of telling the truth – they can’t, because they know if they did they would be roundly rejected.
Oh, and this isn’t the only outrageous lie Jack Lew told today. On another morning show he told a bunch of whoppers about Operation Fast and Furious.

I guess if it’s not a tax, then it doesn’t exist and we don’t have to worry about complying with this law then, hey? After all….it’s only constitutional if it IS a tax, soooo…. hmmmmm…. can we say major Team O FUBAR??? I think despite the Roberts debacle which was not, ultimately, about this lousy law but rather the evisceration of a critical point of freedom, the Democrats just screwed themselves a bit on this one.
Mitt Romney, $5.5 million since announcement. That’s a pretty loud disagreement.

The longer this regime is in power, the bigger the lies become. With four months to go expect noses in the regime to grow even larger. One last thing, Taxmagedon is coming and that is a tax increase.

Mr. Lew said 99% of us either buy our own insurance or get it from our employer, and ObamaCare just forces the other 1% to pay their “fair share” and buy insurance. 1% would equal about 3.1 million people.
Before today, they said there were 30 million or more uninsured, which is about 10% of the population. 30 million uninsured was the justification for ObamaCare. Did 29 million people run out and buy insurance the last few days?
The lies just keep piling up.

“You say Penalty – I say Tax!”
You: “Penalty!”
I: “Tax!”
You: “Penalty!”

SCOTUS: “Tax!”
Consensus has spoken. The science is settled. It’s a tax.

I don’t know what is scarier….the fact that these libs are shoving this down the throats of Americans who clearly do not want it or trust anything about it….OR….the fact that they actually believe the &%#$ that they are spewing. How can anyone reasonably sit there and deny the ruling by the Supreme Court and say it is technically not a tax? I think they really believe what they are doing, and that my Friends is what is really scary and makes them SOOOO incredibly dangerous. God bless the USA.

[...] Obama’s attorneys calling Obamacare a tax to the SCOTUS, he still continued to spew lies. The Lonely Conservative wonders whether Lew has a Burger King franchise, because he can certainly serve up some Whoppers. [...]
