Lies, Ineptness and No Focus
Last night, Barack Hussein Obama held his first press conference since being elected.
It was more of a campaign speech than a press conference. Reading from a teleprompter
and never making eye contact with the camera, Obama appeared robotic and boring.
Obama
lied when he implied that all economists agree with the spending bill. The CBO
(Congressional Budget Office) estimates that the democrat spending bill will cause
a heavier loss to the economy in the long run. Also, Obama continually refers
to the current economy as the worst since the Great Depression. Obama only needs
to look back to Jimmy Carter's failed presidency.
Obama also lied about Japan's
handling of their economic woes of the recent past. Obama said that the Japanese
didn't have a big spending plan to stimulate their economy. That simply isn't
true. Japan quadrupled their government spending and it caused a recession that
has become known as the "lost decade."
Obama claims that there is
no "pork" in this spending bill. In fact, it is almost all pork. Hidden
within it is socialized medicine. It calls for the government to decide whether
or not you are worth receiving the treatment you need to stay alive.
Again,
Obama bemoaned that he "inherited" this economy. Sorry, Barry, you and
your fellow democrats caused this. You caused it to get elected. You got elected
saying you can fix it. Now, you realize you can't.
After his lengthy campaign
speech to ram this socialist tripe down the collective throats of Americans, Obama
took a few scripted questions. He spent about ten minutes on his first response
and didn't answer the question. He didn't answer any of the questions. One reporter
simply asked about partisanship and Obama went on a long winded, rambling diatribe
that never addressed the question and ended with a rant on how spending money
to save energy actually saves money. Maybe he should explain why he keeps the
Oval Office "hot enough to grow orchids."
It was quite obvious that
Obama can not speak without a teleprompter. He stutters, rambles, stammers, and
is on the verge of incoherency. His approval rating has been steadily falling
as fast as the economy. It is now painfully obvious that Obama has no clue to
what he is doing.
The stock market lost almost 400 points, today reacting to
Obama and the senate's passage of their version of the spending bill. General
Motors, after receiving billions of dollars in bailout money, announced that it
would be laying off ten thousand workers to comply with the conditions demanded
by Geithner and the democrats. So, Obama, who said that he was going to create
millions of jobs, is already 10,000 in the hole.
