Obama's Lies

On at least 8 occasions, candidate Obama promised that health care legislation would be negotiated in the light of day on C-SPAN. In case there is any thought that his words were taken out of context, watch the video.




After watching the video, did you think he was saying the bill would be created by democrats working in private? Did you think that Republican ideas might be considered in the final bill, or at least debated? Do you think he meant for the bill to be carefully hidden from public scrutiny until after the vote? Do you think that he could explain away the current refusal to carry conference negotiations on C-SPAN?

Now compare and contrast this situation with how George Bush was treated after claiming Iraq owned weapons of mass destruction. Remember that every western intelligence organization and several democratic politicians by the name of Clinton, Gore, Kennedy, and Kerry also agreed that Iraq posed a substantial danger to the world community because of their WMD and the willingness to use it.

After Desert Storm did not uncover arsenals of WMD, what was the mantra? Bush lied! A willing press repeated it so often the American public bought it.

If Bush lied, what is Barrack doing now? Have you heard about this on the 6:00 evening news? How could a press that owned a shred of credibility miss this obvious bald-faced lie?
