This is what amazes me the most. We all listen to what Obama says, but only half of us will acknowledge the lies. These lies are indisputable, yet they ignored by the blind followers and most of the media.
Scary is what it is. The media is a joke. Obama could get caught drowning puppies and the media would be fine with it.
I like how Obama came out a couple weeks ago and said in an interview that he had lowered taxes for the middle class. That's odd, my federal taxes just went up about $1200/year.
A complete, absolute, 100% lie. Very Clintonian - look directly into the camera and lie to the citizens.
"[A]ll the folks who are cleaning the floors at the Capitol -- now that Congress has left, somebody is going to be vacuuming and cleaning those floors and throwing out the garbage -- they're going to have less pay," Mr. Obama said. "The janitors, the security guards, they just got a pay cut, and they've got to figure out how to manage that. That's real."
The Truth
"The pay and benefits of EACH of our employees WILL NOT be impacted," Elias wrote.
"There was a specific mention in the news today by a high ranking official that said 'The employees that clean and maintain the US Capitol will receive a cut in pay' (not specific quote but very close to it)," Elias continued.
"This is NOT TRUE," wrote Elias. "Therefore, I request that you please notify all of our employees about the importance of ignoring media reports."
The president's apparent error comes days after critics of the administration's messaging on the sequester's effects pointed out Education Secretary Arne Duncan's failure to back up a claim he made on CBS' "Face the Nation" Sunday.
