Obama and his lies

[ostrogoth]

I can't believe the American people fall for this b.s. he keeps feeding people:

Obama Lie No. 1 — I will tax just the rich.

 

There is no such thing as a tax on just the rich. Taxes on wealthy people affect everyone.

 

Remember, Obama defines anyone making over $90,000 a year as "rich."

 

Many "Joe the plumber's" discovered that Obama thinks Joe's rich too. Under Obama, he won't be able to hire new employees and grow his business.

 

Joe's not alone. Obama says he'll strip away the FICA cap at $90,000 for every worker. That means every dollar you earn over that amount, you'll pay 7 percent!

 

Obama Lie No. 2 — I want to give a tax cut

to the middle class.

 

Baloney!

 

Obama says he will let the Bush tax cuts expire. That's an automatic 5 percent (maximum) tax increase on almost all taxpayers.

 

Plus middle class folks pay capital gains taxes. Obama has said he wants to almost double them from a low of 15 percent to almost 30 percent.

 

He wants to hike the dividend tax, and he also has promised taxes on gas and energy.

 

Obama also wants to dramatically increase the estate tax, which had almost disappeared. There goes your idea of sharing your wealth with your kids in the future.

 

Obama Lie No. 3 — I want to make America

more secure.

 

Another outright lie.

 

In an age when crazies like Iran's Ahmadinejad are building ballistic missiles and promise to "destroy" the United States and Israel, Obama has promised to gut the missile defense program created by President Reagan.

 

"I will cut investments in unproven missile defense systems," Obama said.

 

He has promised to cut "tens of billions" of dollars from the Defense Department. In an effort to make us more "secure," Obama plans to disarm us.

 

In the age of 9/11 can we afford such a radical Leftist in the White House?

 

No, we can't.

Obama is not just a danger to our economy, with his plans to raise taxes and spend $800 billion in new programs.

 

He is a radical out to reshape America beyond recognition.

 

He is so radical he even backed driver's licenses for illegal aliens — even though such a move would help future terrorists move freely in the United States.

 

Even Hillary Clinton opposed his radical plan.

 

But Obama not only touted such a plan running for president, he pushed for giving illegals driver's licenses as a state senator in Illinois.

 

He is also the most pro-abortion candidate in the history of the country. In 2001, as a state legislator in Illinois, he opposed a bill to protect live-born children — children actually born alive! He was the only Illinois senator to speak out against the bill.

 

He opposes gun rights. He has long history of trying to deny ordinary citizens access to guns.

 

He originally backed Washington D.C.'s total ban on private handguns — a ban that was overturned. The NRA rated him an "F" on gun positions and says he is one of the most dangerous anti-gun politicians in the nation.

 

Never forget that Obama is a Harvard-educated elitist. To him, we Americans are simply "bitter" and he has mocked us saying "[they] cling to their guns and their religion."
