Obama has repeatedly said, “I will get us out of Iraq immediately.” This has been almost a mantra repeated time and time again. That is…UNTIL TODAY!
Now Obama wants us to believe that his words meant, all along, that he would get the US out of Iraq, “When the military says we can.”
HUH? WHAT? Say that again!
This Candidate, a man who has told America that he would BOMB Pakistan, SIT DOWN with Iran and Syria (as well as any TERRORIST GROUPS) and discuss matters!
HUH? What? Say again!
Obama says he will PROVIDE MONEY to fiest time home buyers! $10 BILLION of aid!
HUH? WHAT? Say that again!
I ask, WHO”S MONEY WILL IT BE? OH, I get it…MINE!!
Now look at an article I just got!
*****************************************************
A favorite Obama line is that he will tell “the American people not just what they want to hear, but what we need to know.” Well, he hasn’t so far.
Consider the retiring baby boomers. A truth-telling Obama might say: “Spending for retirees — mainly Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid — is already nearly half the federal budget. Unless we curb these rising costs, we will crush our children with higher taxes. Reflecting longer life expectancies, we should gradually raise the eligibility ages for these programs and trim benefits for wealthier retirees. Both Democrats and Republicans are to blame for inaction. Waiting longer will only worsen the problem.”
Instead, Obama pledges not to raise the retirement age and to “protect Social Security benefits for current and future beneficiaries.” This isn’t “change”; it’s sanctification of the status quo. He would also exempt all retirees making less than $50,000 annually from income tax. By his math, that would provide average tax relief of $1,400 to 7 million retirees — shifting more of the tax burden onto younger workers. Obama’s main proposal for Social Security is to raise the payroll tax beyond the present $102,000 ceiling.
Political candidates routinely indulge in exaggeration, pandering, inconsistency and self-serving obscurity. Clinton and McCain do. The reason for holding Obama to a higher standard is that it’s his standard and also his campaign’s central theme. He has run on the vague promise of “change,” but on issue after issue — immigration, the economy, global warming — he has offered boilerplate policies that evade the underlying causes of the stalemates.
