What Obama Says vs. What He Does

If we do not believe that the President is stupid, then what do we believe? The only reasonable alternative seems to be that he wanted to get this massive government takeover of medical care passed into law before the public understood what was in it.

Moreover, he wanted to get re-elected in 2012 before the public experienced what its actual consequences would be.

Unfortunately, this way of doing things is all too typical of the way this administration has acted on a wide range of issues.

There are lots of people in the Obama administration who want to do things that have not been done before-- and to do them before the public realizes what is happening.

What was the rush to pass it, then? It was not to get that money out into the economy as fast as possible. It was to get that money-- and the power that goes with it-- into the hands of the government. Power is what politics is all about.

Any business/industry that thinks they have a deal with this guy better think again.

Obama’s new mantra: “Nope and estrange!”

The title of this same Thomas Sowell article at Townhall is much better: Listening to a Liar.

Hey—the Democrats have merged with the banking industry, the auto industry and why not the insurance industry? The banks would love that.

“What Obama Says vs. What He Does”

And that leads us to the reaction to his speech today directed at our kids. A large percentage of Americans just don’t trust him.

I think that your statement should be repeated often. I would guess that any Congressman or Senator who thinks that they can deal with this guy is also mistaken.

Easy, just remember that whenever “Mack Daddy the Zebra” opens his mouth to speak only lies cross his lips.
