The Many Lies, Falsehoods, and Half-Truths of Barack Hussein Obama

[BigBadBrian]

Put Barry Hussein's lies in this thread. They are many and varied, particularly the lies he's told during the first two Presidential Debates 2012.


"I made a bunch of these promises during the campaign. ... We've got about 60 percent done in three years."

Health reform will "give every American the same opportunity" to buy health insurance the way members of Congress do.

“I cut taxes by $3,600.”

This claim is a bit misleading. Glenn Kessler makes sure to clarify that this $3,600 was cut over four years—not all at once, as Obama’s statement might suggest. He also notes that, even if he successfully extends Bush-era tax cuts for those with yearly incomes of $250,000 or less, taxes will inevitably go up because Obama hasn’t made any plans to extend the payroll tax cut or renew the Making Work Pay tax credit.

“In my hometown of Chicago there’s an awful lot of violence, and they’re not using AK-47s. They’re using cheap handguns.”

Cheap handguns may often be used in many of the Windy City’s violent crimes, but AK-47 assault rifles have been responsible for a number of deaths in Chicago this summer alone.

“I’ve Proposed A Specific $4 Trillion Deficit Reduction Plan.” OBAMA: “I’ve proposed a specific $4 trillion deficit reduction plan. … The way we do it is $2.50 for every cut, we ask for $1 in additional revenue.” (President Barack Obama, Presidential Debate, Denver, CO, 10/3/12)

“Virtually No Serious Budget Analyst Agreed With This Accounting.” “But virtually no serious budget analyst agreed with this accounting. Obama’s $4 trillion figure, for instance, includes counting some $1 trillion in cuts reached a year ago in budget negotiations with Congress. So no matter who is the president, the savings are already in the bank.” (Glenn Kessler, “Factchecking The First Presidential Debate Of 2012,” The Washington Post‘s The Fact Checker, 10/4/12)

Unfortunately, most of those people are dead now. The Eisenhower wing of the Republican party no longer exists.
