In his remarks to 15,000 hand picked stogies in Minnesota on Saturday Obama repeated his usual lies and half truths.
Appealing to these socialist simpletons Obama said, “We have public colleges and private colleges. The public colleges don’t put the private colleges out of business” implying it would be the same with public versus private healthcare plans.
Of course the crowd clapped like hungry circus seals without questioning this lame and ridiculous “analogy.”
Nobody in his hand picked crowd reminded Obama that Americans aren’t forced to go to college, so if a private college raises tuition its students aren’t forced into a public college. If a private college dropped a major its students aren’t “dumped” into local community colleges.
Obama’s weekly address lies
During his weekly speech Obama addressed Healthcare. His remarks beg a response.
He said “..my plan will offer more security …. And bring the cost of healthcare under control. Then he added his stock lie “… nothing in my plan would require you to change.”
Since Obama’s assault on our healthcare started we haven’t seen one word of “his plan” because he has no plan.
“I will not sign a plan that adds one dime to our deficit. This plan will be paid for.”
The CBO says HR 3200 (the only plan in print) will cost $1trillion over the next decade and still leave 30 million Americans without coverage. Republican estimates set the cost at $2.4 trillion, so either way Obama is a liar.
Lying about costs
“If we ..slow the growth of healthcare costs by .010% each year we will reduce the deficit by $4 trillion over the long term.”
Millions of simpletons believe him, but Obama is a “Judas goat” trying to lead America to slaughter to the clutches of Marxist socialism. Keep fighting.

bump for later
The primary reason 0bama’s proposals have any potential for becoming law is that so many people in this country were raised without having to work for anything. They simply see everything they want as being “free.”
“15,000 hand picked stogies”
A stogie is a cigar.
Maybe he loaded the crowd with stooges.
Thank God people are finally finding the backbone to call it what it is. 0 is simply repleating LIES, lies and more lies.
The majority of whom are doubtless just as intelligent as a typical stogie.
“Nobody in his hand picked crowd reminded Obama that Americans aren’t forced to go to college, so if a private college raises tuition its students aren’t forced into a public college. “
There is an opportunity now for some pundit to discuss why government meddling keeps college tuition high (loans, regulation, preferences, etc.). We need to expose his ridiculous analogies.

“They Can’t Stop Us!”

Question: did the formation of public colleges drop the price of college? No, and in fact the costs went up because of all the “free” money floating around. Same with public health care—you throw more “free money” into the system and you’ll see prices skyrocket as the industry scrambles to soak it up, just as the college system did.
College presidents have admitted that they post ridiculously high tuitions so that students can qualify for federal assistance.
I dunno. Are the stooges smarter than the stogies?
Yes, the Joker doesn't seem like much of a "Uniter" talking like that, does he?
Paraphrasing, he said that by passing the HealthCare reform bill would actually reduce the national deficit.
One of the lessons we learned from Obama's speech is that it's perfectly acceptable to lie, but it's a great big no-no to call the liar a liar.
I had an experience several years ago, which had a similar outcome. My wife and I, along with two other couples, had made dinner reservations at a popular new restaurant. We arrived at the appointed time, and were told by the maitre d' that our table was not quite ready, and that there would be a wait of 10 or 15 minutes. Looking at the huge throng waiting in the bar area, it looked to me as if the wait would be a lot longer. Thirty minutes passed and we thought about leaving, except that this restaurant was the only one in that area, and it was a Saturday night, making it difficult to go elsewhere without reservations. So, we waited it out.
As God is my witness, the maitre d' finally put us in our seats one hour and fifteen minutes after the original appointed time. As he sat us down, he unctuously asked if everything was okay. I said, "As a matter of fact, everything is not okay. You told us it would be a short wait, and you knew for sure that it would be a very long wait. I don't appreciate being lied to."
He was outraged. "Sir, you should not be calling me a liar!"
"I did not call you a liar. I said that I didn't appreciate being lied to."
He walked away, and the night went on, although the mood of the evening was irreparably damaged. On the way home, my wife started berating me for calling the guy a liar (Help?) and ruining the evening.
The restaurant is still around and quite popular, although I never went back there. And I'm still married to the same woman.
