The Great Pretender At His Lying Best

A quote in an LA Times story has the Great Pretender pretending stronger than ever.
"We've done more than ever, faster than ever, more responsibly than ever, to get the gears of the economy moving again," Obama said, and "we're in a position to really accelerate."
Whew... hold onto your wallets. You'll need them to escape to someplace better because your freedom is going down the tube if Obama has anything to say about it.

Still, there's hope, to use a word nearly destroyed by his Progressive Majesty's debauchery of language.

According to the header on the story:
His assertions -- that 150,000 jobs have been saved or created already, and that the summer goal is 600,000 more -- appear to be elastic and are hard to verify.
When even the left-wing LA Times is willing to consider that he's making it up as he goes along, you know the Pretender is losing his grip on the adoring media.

Hi! Popped over from Hot Air! How good would life be if the media woke up and realized that the very actions they have provided cover for while they were "in love" with Obama - are the very same actions which will KILL the economy that provides their livelihood?

No business = no ads, no news/shows/papers...except whatever can survive off the "State" business...crumbs.

Good to meet you!

Hello Minorcan and welcome to Shaving Leviathan!

It would be great, but I know you'll pardon me if I don't hold my breath. Most of them, sadly, will be quite satisfied being Pravda. Hey, it's a secure job. Still, even the Associated Press is apparently waking up to the fact that all is not Disney in ObamaLand.

(By the way, do you mind if I borrow your name for my novel?)

Thanks again for stopping by. Please enjoy looking around and feel free to comment on past posts.

The MSM is simply horrible. CNN has hosts that are consultants for the Democratic party; every piece of news is spun to make Obama look good.
