Can you say “the President is a pathological liar”?

I knew you could!

[hal ogen]

He probably misspoke and meant “every communist from...”

[Cowgirl]

At what price, idiot?!

Please provide the facts and documentation upon which you and all of the other exconomists base this assertion. If it is written on monkeys flying out of your A$$, please put a leash on them so I can read them.

I’m an economist and I disagree wth the President. I believe we have a net job loss as a result of the pork bill called a stimulus package. Gee, tha would make the prez a liar, nothing new.

[Newtoidaho]

Yes, and most of this was just a transfer of funding of state and local government jobs to the federal “budget”, that’s all.

ZERO jobs created or saved, just another theft from taxpayers.

FAILbama!

"Saved jobs" is kind of like calculating how many women I would have slept with in the past 28 years had I not married.

It's likely a whole lot fewer than I would like to imagine.

How could a media truth organization like the one that rates Rush be set up to rate 0? I realized the media should be doing much of this but they're still lovestruck. I'd love to see 0’s accuracy rating but doubt it's even a positive figure.

Has anybody noticed that as the number of jobs that have been saved or created rises...so does unemployment?

[freekitty]

How can this man live with himself? He lies so much.

[TASMANIANRED]

Getting to be too much of a joke.

I suppose he could say everyone who still has a job is a job his stimulus saved. By that count the entire workforce is beholden to him except that pesky 10% plus officially unemployed.

[chiefqc]

He’s under a lot of pressure and has resorted to more nose candy than normal.

[fortheDeclaration]

Obama just finds some ‘expert’ to justify his own delusions.

I’m reminded of a drug education movie from decades ago. A straw-haired teen states to the off-screen interviewer: “It’s not bad for you; no scientist ever said pot is bad for you.”
