Obama Lies Again

He gave a speech today to the Alliance for Manufacturing that contains so many blatant lies and untruths that it hard to know where to start in addressing them. He says alot about lost jobs going overseas but does not address what drove those jobs out of the country which is high taxation, regulation and overbearing demands from unions that bankrupted them like the auto makers are facing today. He rails about the Bush administration's policies that have produced incredible economic growth despite 9/11, major hurricanes and a major war. How is he going to help workers when he raises taxes and increases regulations on those very corporations that provide quality jobs for millions of Americans? How does it help the workers when he takes the money from investors by taxing their profits on the capital gains leaving them with less to invest to create more jobs or to give more money to their workers? He clearly doesn't understand economics with so many of his statements its appalling.
He blatantly lies when he says he doesn't take donations from PACS or lobbyists or corporations, well he can't because they can't donate to an individual campaign but he sure raised millions from Hollywood and some of his biggest bundlers are lobbyists and oil company executives. Heck those damning statements he made last week were from billionaires row in San Francisco, the richest block in the world, where he raised millions in just four appearances particularly at the oil heir Getty's. I guess he forgot about that visit to convicted lobbyist Jack Abramoff's old lobbying firm in Miami where he raised a couple hundred thousand bucks or all the help he received from Tony Rezko currently on trial for bribery and corruption.
I am sure this speech will get fisked by some bloggers far more capable than me because it stinks to high heaven.
