MR. PRESIDENT?....

Mr. President--you lie!

When U.S. Representative Joe Wilson, R-SC, blurted out during Obama's State of the Union address, 'You lie,' the minions of the Leftwing and their mouthpieces in the mainstream media had a field day vilifying the Congressman.

Now, however, the facts show that the Left owes Congressman Wilson an apology, and the mainstream media should issue a retraction of their swift condemnation.

Barack Obama is a liar.

We have the proof.

2 of the most sweeping pieces of legislation in U.S. history were misrepresented by Obama, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, and the Left in the run-up to the vote. The first was the ObamaCare bill. The second is the so-called 'finance reform' bill that Congress approved this week.

In response to an avalanche of criticism about the ObamaCare bill and its many hidden provisions that were not being made public, Nancy Pelosi stated, 'We have to pass the bill first before we can know what's in it.'

We now know what's in it, and Obama lied. Pelosi lied. Reid lied. They ALL lied.

First, Obama assured pro-life 'blue-dog' Democrats that ObamaCare would not use taxpayer dollars to fund abortions. When Congressman Bart Stupak protested, Obama won him over by promising an executive order that would supposedly insure that the new legislation would not cover elective abortions.

We now know that not only does ObamaCare use taxpayer funds to cover elective abortions, but Obama's spoken AND WRITTEN word is not worth the breath it takes to say it nor the paper on which it's written.

ObamaCare legislation creates a pool among the states from which those states can pay for the healthcare of those without insurance. The 2 states which are ready to implement that provision, Pennsylvania and New Mexico, were given multi-millions of taxpayer dollars to fund elective abortions.

It has also become apparent that ObamaCare does, indeed, include death panels given that Obama's new Medicare/Medicaid 'czar' not only admitted but advocates for healthcare rationing. And no matter how you parse the terminology, rationing leads to death for some citizens, particularly the elderly.

Second, Obama and the crooks in Congress who drafted the finance reform bill--Barney Frank and Chris Dodd--assured Americans that the bill would end taxpayer-funded bail-outs.

In reality the only thing the bill ends is the requirement for Congress to approve large bailouts. The bill gives Obama and the Executive Branch the full authority to use taxpayer funds to bail out large corporations that are deemed too big to fail, without having to get approval from anyone to do so.

The bill also gives the President the authority to seize private business and corporations in the event they are on the brink of bankruptcy--all without Congressional approval or oversight.

This amounts to the taxpayers giving to the President a credit card with an unlimited line of credit with which to use our money to prop up failed corporations that should be allowed to die.

Yet, curiously, the 'reform' measure does absolutely nothing to reign in Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, which were singularly responsible for the housing and banking meltdown, due to policies implemented by the government mandating that mortgages be given to persons who could not repay.

And Barney Frank and Chris Dodd, the 2 top Democrats at the forefront of the finance reform bill, are the very ones who enabled Fannie and Freddie to implement measures that led to the present economic crash.

Funny how neither Fannie nor Freddie are part of the reforms in the new bill.

But when the criminals are running the prison, what can we expect?

This is a government of dangerous liars and crooks, each and every one, from the President on down to the people in Congress, and especially the unelected officials in the background who write these policies at the bidding of their extremist Leftwing bankrollers, such as George Soros, Apollo Alliance, the Tides Foundation, SEIU, and ACORN.
