“Those quotes are so fake, although he believes it, Obama is not so stupid as to use terms like “confiscate wealth” and such, you guys are being played
“FOLKS, DON’T MAKE FOOLS OF YOURSELVES, OBAMA NEVER MADE THOSE STATEMENTS, YOU’RE BEING PLAYED”
Thanks for noting this. I was searching frantically for the source, and naturally unable to find it. I too concluded this was a fake. I posted a comment at the Waterbury Republican American asking them to point to their source, and naturally my comment was not allowed to be posted. I’ll add the WRA to my mental list of not-credible publications.
I wish people would be a little more skeptical and check things out a little better before posting here.
I believe the author added his own interpretation to the "quote" in a rather clumsy way. I saw some of a speech with this same garbage (couldn't stomach very much of the insane, 100% lies) and the part above is quoted fairly accurately. I'm not sure about the use of the actual word "expenses", but that's what he was communicating to the useful idiots.
Most of this op-ed piece is over the average person’s head (yes, there are enough really stupid people to vote a Marxist into office who had no executive, management, or legislative experience to speak of).
The author should have kept it at this level:
”And the reality on the debate over the Bush tax cuts is no one will see his or her taxes decline if the tax cuts are extended, but extending them would prevent a tax increase of more than $3 trillion, the largest in U.S. history.”
