PANTS-ON-FIRE UPDATE ...
IT'S STILL "THE ECONOMY, STUPID" ...
OBAMAS, AMERICA'S BIGGEST FREELOADERS

Is anyone else getting sick of the constant media use of "going forward"?
It's become as tiresome as the outdated "at that point in time." 

- - - - - 

Now it's totally out in the open: Obama was lying in his teeth for over a week when he was insisting that the Libya murders were incited by some silly video when he knew all along it was pure terrorism -- and still lied about it this week in his groveling UN speech. He'd do anything to keep up the pretense that Muslims don't hate America anymore since millions of morons put him in the White House.

One of the biggest, yet most persistent and widely-believed lies of Obama's campaigns, both four years ago and today, is that his Obamacare will lower the health-care cost for a family by $2,500. By every rational accounting, it will in fact RAISE it by about that amount and probably more.

Elizabeth Warren is the Democrat running for the U.S. Senate in Massachusetts. She seems to be a graduate of the Barack Obama College of Deception and Dissembling.  She's the Harvard law professor who first claimed to be part American Indian ... apparently used that minority status to get ahead at Hahvuhd -- and it was a lie. Now it turns out she's been practicing law without a license; she isn't even a licensed lawyer, either. And Democrats as a breed are so stupid and corrupt, she's still competitive in the race!

Survey says ...
     Rasmussen finds 36% of Americans think this country has the best economy in the world. This is possibly explained by the likelihood that many of the 36% have never been anywhere else. Returning from places like Singapore or Switzerland is, in some ways, like returning to a third-world country. Many technologies that are new here are old stuff in several countries, and often far cheaper. One example: internet service in Japan costs a small fraction of the price we pay.

Also from Rasmussen: "A plurality of likely voters — or 45 percent — believe that U.S. relations with the Islamic world are worse under President Barack Obama than they were under President George W. Bush.  A mere 18 percent believe that U.S.-Muslim relations are better."
     Wait! Wasn't electing our affirmative-action president supposed to solve all that?!

Share this with any delusional acquaintance who might actually believe that the White House Marxist is really going to "fix" the economy ...
     A survey of small business owners and manufacturers -- the people who create most American jobs -- finds that 55% say they wouldn't even try to start a business in the government environment Obama has created. Further, two thirds say there's too much uncertainty about the constant flow of new regulations, taxes and health-care costs to expand or hire more workers. Doesn't bode well for prospects in a second Obama term, does it?
     Clearly, they think Obama's a fool.

Newt Gingrich wields the subtle stiletto in his description of Obama ...
     " ... a guy  who is a brilliant performer as an orator who may well get reelected at the present date.  And who, frankly, happens to be a partial, part-time  president.  I mean he really is a lot like the substitute referees in the sense that he’s not a real president.”

George P. Shultz, Michael J. Boskin, John F. Cogan, Allan H. Meltzer and John B. Taylor of the Hoover Institution st Stanford University ask you to consider some realities ...
     "Did you know that annual spending by the federal government now exceeds the 2007 level by about $1 trillion? The four-year increase in borrowing amounts to $55,000 per U.S. household.
     "The government has to get the money to finance its spending by taxing or borrowing. While it might be tempting to conclude that we can just tax upper-income people, did you know that the U.S. income tax system is already very progressive? The top 1% pay 37% of all income taxes and 50% pay none.
    "The problems are close to being unmanageable now. If we stay on the current path, they will wind up being completely unmanageable, culminating in an unwelcome explosion and crisis.
    "The fixes are blindingly obvious. Economic theory, empirical studies and historical experience teach that the solutions are the lowest possible tax rates on the broadest base, sufficient to fund the necessary functions of government on balance over the business cycle; sound monetary policy; trade liberalization; spending control and entitlement reform; and regulatory, litigation and education reform. The need is clear. Why wait for disaster? The future is now."

CNS News ran the stopwatch on Obama's latest gasbag exercise before the UN. Result: He spent five minutes apologizing for the video about Islam almost no one has actually seen ... and 1 minute, 32 seconds on Iran's nuclear weapons program.
     In that ridiculous speech, he averred that this is "a season of progress" in the Islamic world. Enquiring minds want to know: Is he still smoking grass?

Argus Hamilton --
     "This week it was discovered that the Secret Service is using NFL replacement referees to guard Mitt Romney."

Taxpayers spent $1.4 billion dollars on everything from staffing, housing, flying and entertaining President Obama and his family last year, according to the author of a new book on taxpayer-funded presidential perks. In comparison, British taxpayers spent just $57.8 million on the royal family. --  Robert Keith Gray, "Presidential Perks Gone Royal"/Daily Caller

The Boston Herald poses the question du jour: "Is Kennedy matriarch Ethel Kennedy really winning any votes for her grandson, congressman-wannabe Joe Kennedy III, by slapping his bumper sticker on her Audi and then parking in a handicapped spot with no handicapped plate? And what about the Florida license plate? Word is that Grammy, who winters in Palm Beach and summers in Hyannisport, has become a resident of the Sunshine State. Which means she can skip out on Massachusetts income tax and local excise taxes on her sweet ride!“
     Apparently Ethel enjoys not only the Florida sunshine but its favorable tax policies.”
 
    What?! A liberal icon trying to get lower taxes?! We are surely stunned, shocked and amazed!

A few words worth spreading to friends, relatives, acquaintances and brainwashed liberals ...
     "President Obama lives in a world of words. His presidency is marked by his worship of his own rhetoric; he's said repeatedly that his worst mistake as president is a failure to communicate with the American people, as though his actions are secondary to his mellifluous statements. Obama believes that words drove Muslims to murder our ambassador in Libya, storm our embassy in Tunisia and burn American flags in Cairo. He thinks that words and actions can be equated. ... He believes in a restricted vision of free speech, a politically correct vision. That's not free speech at all. It's tyranny." -- Ben Shapiro, columnist

Sports news ...
    A cynical person to whom I am related by marriage suggests that the regular NFL officials should send part of the fruits of their new deal in the form of a lavish gift to that pathetic stumblebum referee who blew the call on the final play of the Seattle-Green Bay game.
    You can bet that every one of those regular officials working tonight's game will be fervently hoping that he doesn't screw up a call.

Conan O'Brien --
    "Green Bay Packers fans are furious after a controversial call in last night's game robbed the Packers of a victory.  Some are calling it the worst call in NFL history, or at least since the Black Eyed Peas were invited to play the Super Bowl."

Craig Ferguson --
    "If you're a Packers fan, did you see the game?  To be honest, I wasn't watching the game live, but then again, neither were the referees."

    Golden Tate of the Seattle Seahawks didn't catch that pass vs. the Packers; someone else made that happen.
... also ...
     Mr. Eason is spreading the rumor that Matt Schaub is planning a lunch with Evander Holyfield. (If you're not a sports fan, just skip it.)

Distressing news from Turkey, where residents were shocked at the sight of the body of a woman floating in the Black Sea .Brave rescuers swam out to save her, only to find that she was a life-size inflatable doll, manufactured to comfort deprived -- and kinky -- men.  She had apparently been just ... used ... then cast aside.
     More proof that few relationships are perfect ... and that men are just ... BEASTS!
