Debunked: Michelle Obama Tries to Spread the Obamas’ Student Loan Debt Lie and FAILS(MISERABLY)
Twitchy Media ^ | April 26, 2012 | Twitchy Staff

MICHELLE OBAMA:FAIL

We know the ‘challenge’ of student loan debt.” On an income of $272,000 per year!

Man and woman of the people! Only not so much, as (Link to the Story:Behind Obama’s Definition of Wealth and Paying Off Student Loans)ABC’s Jonathan Karl reported earlier.

Here’s a rundown of the president’s income, according to his tax returns, in the years before he paid off his student loans:

2004: $207,647

2003: $238,327

2002: $259,394

2001: $272,759

2000: $240,505

In 2001 and 2002, the Obamas would have met the $250,000 standard the president has set for those wealthy enough to afford to pay more taxes.

It’s also notable that the Obamas didn’t claim deductions for student loans on any of those years, most likely because they made too much money to qualify for the student loan deduction.

How “challenging” having to pay back money that you willingly borrowed, all on a measly $272,759 per year!

Twitter users help with the debunking.

In reading through this thread, I have seen more spelling errors than any any other 3 threads. Don’t you folks know how to use the spell checker?

A simple spelling error can destroy your life!

A husband wrote a message to his wife on his official trip and forgot to add a single letter at the end of a word

I am having such a wonderful time! Wish you were her

How about the old scribe who discovered in the celler of the ancient monastry that the old monks had misspelled the word celebrate.

Hey BD. Long time no see. I think we need to have our annual Neener reunion picnic someday. Maybe next year or the year after. I might even grant absolution if some Neener were to put together a list of all the old Neeners. But then maybe not. After all, we are listless and so shall we ever remain. Maybe someone on the GRPL list has a list of the Neeners. Or maybe we could have a GRPL reunion picnic and the Neeners could crash it.

Aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it deosn't mttaer inwaht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoatnt tihng is taht the frist and lsat ltteer be in the rghit pclae. The rset can be a taotl mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit a porbelm. Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe. Amzanig huh? Yaeh and I awlyas thought slpeling was ipmorant.

I halve a spelling checker,
It came with my pea see.
It plainly marks four my revue
Mistakes I dew knot sea.

Eye strike a key and type a word
And weight four it two say
Weather eye am wrong oar write
It shows me strait aweigh.

As soon as a mist ache is maid
It nose bee fore two long
And eye can put the era rite
Its rarely ever wrong.

I’ve scent this massage threw it,
And I’m shore your pleased too no
Its letter prefect in every weigh;
My checker tolled me sew.

If an S and an I and an O and a U
With an X at the end spell Su;

And an E and a Y and an E spell I,
Pray what is a speller to do?

Then, if also an S and an I and a G
And an HED spell side,

There’s nothing much left for a speller to do
But to go commit siouxeyesighed.

I don’t think BO had student loans. Maybe Michelle, but not BO. He went to the most exclusive private high school in Hawaii and then supposedly on to Occidental, Harvard and Columbia. Someone paid for this for him, otherwise, he would have stayed in-state for in-state tuition at state universities where all the ones that couldn’t afford these types of colleges went. Where’s the proof that he had student loans?

Please also list the Obama's charitable giving deductions for those years! IIRC, before he began to run for Prez in 2006, the Obama's were "One-Percenters," i.e., giving about one percent on an income of $250K.

Which is their prerogative, but they really SHOULD NOT be going around whining about other people's supposed "selfishness."

more likely because he didn't have any student loans!

Michelle Robinson Obama is somehow related to Jesse RObinson Jackson. His biological father is from the same South Carolina community that Michelle’s ancestors are from and she spent enough time in their home growing up that the Jackson children call her Sis.

Her father was disabled....You think that Jesse didn’t start her living off the Govenment teat until she met BO.....not hardly.

Here’s some interesting dots to connect.

BO, MO, JJ, JJ’s half brother Noah RObinson, connection to gang El Rukn; El Rukn (drugs, prostitution, murder) territory and the area the BO served as community organizer.

This is the first thing that came to mind when I read the article:

"According to the couple’s tax returns, Mrs Obama earned $51,200 (£25,700) for her work as a non-executive director on Treehouse’s board last year, on top of the $271,618 salary she was paid as a vice-president of the University of Chicago Hospitals.

"She also received 7,500 Treehouse stock options, worth a further $72,375, as she did the previous year, when she banked a $45,000 salary from the company.

"Michelle Obama is the “specifically named individual” who was able to sit on corporate boards, although she lacks the experience of Blagojevich’s wife. And notice how Michelle Obama’s position with the WAL-MART vendor helped alleviate the “financial stress” of the Obama family at a time when they were purchasing a mansion from Rezko they could not afford."

Obama Never Declared Peace Prize as Income / Deduction.

So if a lottery winner donated it all to charity, could they just leave it off their taxes? Don't think so.

“The president's 2009 income does NOT include the $1.4 million he got for winning the Nobel Peace Prize, the White House statement said, because Obama donated it all to 10 charities.”

And he never mentions what charities got the money!

If the O’Bammys had such big student loan debts (probably from Moochelle since the Ayers family and the Saudis picked up Barry's tuition) why would Moochelle surrender her law license shortly after graduation thus crippling her ability to pay back her loans?

” I firmly believe that Osama Obama is beatable but an attitude like this can cost us dearly.It smacks of complacency...of wild overconfidence. “


You are obviously young and like words, but my attitude is just not going to be your job assignment as an attitude checker on Free Republic. You don’t know me well enough to freak out. I can often give you real reasons to do so, but this isn’t one of those.

We don’t play much hide the hiney around here. Complacency and wild over confidence smacking are not friends in the same sentence, let alone on FR, so if you must freak out in the company of attitudes among the prepared-for-most-anything crowd, freak with someone your own age.

LOL!

KNOW WUNDER I LUV YUH ALL SEW!!!

I have come to find the spelling nit pickers similar to a cactus prick, and can’t wait until their day comes.

Spell check is just one less button to push if you don’t push it.

Thanks for the riotus snorts, chuckles and grins.

PS: I would rather deal with a mis-spell than a handle three inches long. Sheesh.

The following is a letter to the editor from the Times of Trenton, July 14, 1998. I have the author’s permission to post to rhf—and she had me correct a correction the newspaper’s typesetters had made, as well as a non-spellchecker mistake they had introduced!

The Shortcomings Spellcheck

I would like to apply fore a job as an editor of your paper. I halve a computer, and it has spellcheck, and it wood seam that this is awl I really knead.

I had originally intended too dew this last weak, but then I happened to reed my horoscope in The Times, and it said: “Put on the reigns before you lose control of everything. Of coarse, once I red this, I gnu it wood be better to weight four a more auspicious thyme.

Aye thought at first that maybe I should caul, but then I decided it mite be better to right. I truly believe that I would be a grate editor—know matter watt—rein or shine. Eye wood make accuracy inn spelling the mane ingredient of my editorial rain. Just to prove my hart is in the rite place, I maid sure this letter was perfect—I ran it threw Spellcheck.

I really due wont this job, and I no I could bee a reel asset, butt if yew don’t higher mi, I won’t whale.
