I saw that video before the election last year.

People just do not pay attention.

Ha ha! Except in this case, any White House success might just highlight the video—which does well expose Obama on the issue.

What a conspiracy theorist. Next thing you know she will be asking the one to show her his birth certificate.

Where does he find these people?

Obama’s useful idiots have been posting this all over the Web.

They are such liars. Everyone, excluding those with their heads in their rear-ends, knew Obama wanted a single payor nationalized system.

That’s what they always say, whether it’s Pastor Wright or whatever. Usually if you hear the entire context it’s even worse then first shown.

It is the way of the left.

The Obama Propaganda Machine is in full cover mode. It is a powerful machine, being aided by network “news” organizations and print press.

We are in for the fight of our lives.

I find rather strange that Drudge was targeted. Don’t these morons know Drudge is nothing more than a news aggregator?

Whenever the Whitehouse goes on the offensive... everyone present should chant, “LIAR... LIAR... LIAR”

Watch more of the propaganda from this morning with BILL ADAIR PolitiFact Editor, talk about his ‘truth-o-meter’ toward the end of the program.

Topic: Bill Adair talked about PolitiFact’s efforts to fact-check Congress, the Obama Administration, politics, and as the media. He responded to telephone calls and electronic communications.

How exactly is the White House spinning Obama’s statement about eliminating employer coverage? I know they say it was out of context.....but what context do they claim?

Ahh, the old “cherry-picking” defense.

Unfortunately, with the Internet the old adage “who you gonna believe me, or your own lying eyes” has never been more relevant
