WaPo Fact Checker Destroys Obama’s Misleading Tweet on Romney’s Taxes Claim that It’s A “Fact” Romney Pays Less Taxes Than Middle Class Families

THE LYING KING IS BACK AT IT …

President Barack Obama is back at the class warfare attacks on Mitt Romney as Obama certainly cannot run on his record for the past 3+ years in handing the US economy, jobs and spending. What is the ‘Food Stamp’ President to do … make false comments about his opponent of course.

“FACT: In 2010 and 2011, Romney paid less than 15% in taxes on $42.5 million in income—much less than what many middle-class families pay.”

— Tweet by @BarackObama, July 3, 2012

However, the Fact Checkers at the Washington Post, yes you read that correctly, the WAPO is slapping back at Obama’s misrepresentation about Romney and destroys Obama’s tweet about Mitt Romney paying less in taxes than a middle class family.There is nothing worse than a President who would knowingly try to deceive the America people with lies about another. What is the real reason why Romney’s rate is as low as it is … charitable contributions. What a terrible thing to do Barack. Maybe you and Biden might want to explain why you two do not give more?

We are avid readers of tweets by @BarackObama, though of course it is not the president himself but his campaign team that posts them. We are also very curious when politicians claim they have uttered “a fact.”

So, is it really true that the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, who is very wealthy, pays a tax rate “much less” than “many” middle-class families.

Class Warfare: Barack Obama to Extend Bush Tax Cuts for Everyone But the Rich, Even though He Said Otherwise in 2010

Barack Obama, a portrait of a lack of leadership and playing politics at all cost to get reelected …

President Barack Obama continues his class warfare campaign and his pathetic pandering in order to get reelected. Obama is expected today to ask Congress to extend the Bush era tax cuts for only those making less than $250,000 for one year. ONE YEAR!!! Obama looks to string Americans on to get votes. How pathetic that this President would go back on his words from just a year ago. Barack Obama said that it would be irresponsible for any take hike to occur during a recession. So Obama thinks that it is so much better today after receiving the anemic jobs numbers from this past Friday of 80,000 jobs created? Also, he is extending it for one year, just to pander for votes in the upcoming 2012 election? So in other words, elect Barack Obama and there is nothing to stand in his way for him to raise taxes on all Americans as many Democrats want to. If he is so behind this cause, why didn’t he extend them for 5, 10, 15 years? Obama continues to play politics and cause uncertainty.

Obama agrees to extend Bush era tax cuts for all in 2010

In addition, a campaign official said the campaign will “amplify the president’s message on middle-class tax cuts” by hosting a series of events in battleground states all week across the country.

From 2010 when Barack Obama extended the Bush era tax cuts for all … So what changed, does Obama not want to create jobs for the American people?

“That’s the nature of compromise, yielding on something each of us cares about to move forward on what all of us care about,” he said. “And right now, what all of us care about is growing the American economy and creating jobs for the American people.”

From the Wall Street Journal:

President Barack Obama will propose a one-year extension of the Bush-era tax cuts for families earning less than $250,000 today, an effort to shift the conversation away from the sagging economy and onto ground of tax fairness, which Mr. Obama prefers.

His campaign will amplify the message with a series of battleground state events this week.

Obama calls for 1 year extension, a year???

On Monday, Mr. Obama will appear in the East Room, surrounded by people who would benefit from the extension, an administration official said. It’s another display of the power of incumbency, whereby a president can command attention for his ideas in grand surroundings not available to his challenger.

Mr. Obama will make the same case on a campaign trip Tuesday to Iowa.

Mr. Obama has long supported a permanent extension of Bush-era tax cuts for families earning less than $250,000, and has called for those aiding wealthier families to expire. But Monday’s event marks the first time Mr. Obama will specifically call for a one-year extension for the lower earning group, a nod toward the desire to do something in the short run to create more certainty in an uncertain economic climate.

VP Joe Biden’s Crazy Lunatic Rant on Romney in Ohio Speech “They Don’t Get Us” (VIDEO) … Just a Heart Beat Away

You know what I don’t get, is how this crazy loon Joe Biden made it to a heart beat away from the Presidency. The MSM railed on Sarah Palin, yet they had no issue with crazy Joe being a heart beat away. YIKES!

The class warfare continues from the ranting of Obama’s Vice President Joe Biden. In a campaign speech in Youngstown, OH Biden went on a crazed rant about Republicans, namely Romney, “they don’t get us”. Biden went on to say, “My mother and father dreamed as much as any rich guy dreams!” HUH? This administration has been playing class warfare games for years now suddenly they say that they think “you don’t dream”. According to this administration millionaires are evil. Why would anyone want to dream to be evil?

From ABC News:

At a campaign stop in Youngstown, Ohio, today, Vice President Joe Biden lit into Republicans and their presumed  presidential nominee Mitt Romney for what he described as a failure to understand the plight of the middle class.

“I resent when they talk about families like mine that I grew up in. I resent the fact that they think we’re talking about  envy: it’s job envy, it’s wealthy envy; that we don’t dream,” an impassioned Biden told a crowd of manufacturing workers.

“My mother believed and my father believed that if I wanted to be president of the United States, that I could be, I could be vice president! My mother and father believed that if my brother or sister wanted to be a millionaire, they could be a millionaire! My mother and father dreamed as much as any rich guy dreams!

“They don’t get us! They don’t get who we are!” he yelled before the crowd, drawing loud applause.

WHAT THE FRIG IS THIS LUNATIC TALKING ABOUT?

The following is a fantastic response and analysis from Fox News Bill O’Reilly on The Factor to Biden’s “They don’t get us.” (VIDEO)

O’REILLY: And that’s true, Mr. Biden. I don’t get you. In fact, I don’t know what you’re talking about. You came from humble beginnings, you made it big. Same with me. What’s the problem? By the way, I give millions to charity. But you, Mr. Vice President, give only… nothing, very nearly nothing. I don’t get that.

Bottom line, this is all a bunch of garbage. The class warfare the Obama administration is peddling is bogus. Wealthy people are not responsible for the bad economy. Bad federal policies and corrupt financial greed heads are responsible.

Rich people pay most of the income tax in this country; 50 percent of the population pays no federal income tax at all. Wealthy people create jobs. The Occupy Wall Street protesters break windows. Are you getting this, Joe? Do I have to come to your lavish house in Delaware and explain it to you man to man?

Barack Obama’s Out of Touch Problem: Michelle Obama’s Trip to Spain Cost Taxpayers $467K … The Blue Collar Democrat Vacation Backlash Begins

SACRIFICE FROM THE OBAMA’S … OBAMA’S ARE OUT OF TOUCH WITH WORKING CLASS VOTERS.

Who is out of touch? It is rather hypocritical of the Obama’s to call any one out of touch when they are taking lavish and costly vacations on the tax payers dime in the midst of a terrible Obama economy. As most Americans can no longer to take any vacations, it is reveled that Michelle Obama’s trip to Spain cost tax payers $467,000. UNREAL! That is correct, thanks to the folks at Judicial Watch who uncovered the outrageous, out of touch spending from the Obama’s.

Michelle and Barack Obama have become the poster children for “out of touch,” especially with working class Americans. Looks like Barack Obama’s own class warfare rhetoric is coming back to haunt him. The Obama’s were warned about taking such a lavish vacation, they just didn’t care.

It cost taxpayers nearly a half-million dollars for first lady Michelle Obama to travel to Spain in 2010, according to an analysis by Judicial Watch.

The right-leaning watchdog group estimated that the trip cost $467,585. It based its analysis on documents obtained from the U.S. Secret Service and the U.S. Air Force.

Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton said it took his group “two years and a lawsuit to get these documents out of the Obama administration.”

“It is hypocritical for President Obama to fire GSA officials for wasteful conference spending, while his family went on a luxury vacation in the Costa del Sol Spain that cost taxpayers nearly half a million dollars,” Fitton said.

Obama talks about shared sacrifice and ever y one must have skin in the game, except Barack and Michelle of course

Read the full story at Judicial Watch. They obtained the Secret Service records pursuant to an August 2010 Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request.

White House press secretary Jay Carney declined to comment on the report during a press briefing Thursday. However, the Obama’s may have more to worry about than questions from reporters that they refuse to answer.  Barack and Michelle Obama are going to have to answer to “We the People”.

Laura Ingraham exposes Barack Obama’s ‘Shared Sacrifice’ Lie

Barack Obama may have even bigger issues with members of his own party. We called this a while back that eventually Obama’s class warfare and out of touch extravagant vacations while Americans dealt with a terrible economy, unemployment, underemployment, high gas prices and foreclosures was going to catch up with him. That day is here. As reported at the Washington Examiner, Blue collar Democrats are resentful of the Obama’s lavish vacations and lack of sacrifice as they sit home taking “staycations”. That is those lucky enough to take vacation days who are actually employed.

Blue collar Democratic voters, stuck taking depressing “staycations” because they can’t afford gas and hotels, are resentful of the first family’s 17 lavish vacations around the world and don’t want their tax dollars paying for the Obamas’ holidays, according to a new analysis of swing voters.

“They view everything through their own personal situation and if they can’t afford to do it, they can’t enjoy it, they don’t like Obama using their tax dollars to benefit himself,” said pollster John McLaughlin. “In this case, they see him as out of touch. While they are struggling he’s not sharing in that struggle and he’s basically doing what they can’t do on their tax dollars,” added the GOP pollster.

Out of Touch in the Rust Belt from the American Spectator.

How will this translate at the ballot box in 2012? The Gateway Pundit reminds us, if you think what they are doing now is bad, wait until a lame duck second term when they have zero accountability to the People.

More shared sacrifice from the Obama’s:

Why We Love Rick Santelli … Blasts Obama and the Idiotic Buffett Rule that Accomplishes Nothing … Must Reduce Spending … Nothing But an Obama Distraction

The Buffett Rule … a taxation to no where …

Barack Obama and his minions continually play the class warfare game and talk of the “Buffett rule” as some way of paying down the debt. Sadly, so many have bought into the class warfare mantra and may want to educate themselves a bit more. They might want to start by watching Rick Santelli’s rant on the foolishness of raising taxes as being the answer. WRONG! The only way to reduce the debt is to decrease spending.

WAKE UP AMERICA … passing the “Buffet rule”would do nothing to reduce the deficit.

Of course, conservatives and Republicans have thought that all along.  But in recent days, the trouble for Obama has been far broader, as commentators and politicians – faced with nonpartisan estimates that enacting the Buffett Rule would raise about $4.7 billion in revenue per year, less than a drop in the bucket of a $1 trillion-plus annual deficit — admitted that there’s just not much there.

As we are reminded at the Gateway Pundit, Santelli discusses the real job numbers and the 1.2 million people who dropped out of the job market.

SERIOUSLY AMERICA, WAKE UP AND EDUCATE YOURSELF AND STOP BUYING INTO THE LIES OF BARACK OBAMA AND HIS MINIONS. Use some common sense, you can’t spend your way out of a recession and you cannot tax your way out of abusive over-spending by a government. The Angry White Guy has some common sense calculations that all can and should understand.Take a good look at what happens when we cut government spending vs. raising taxes. Stop the hate and the nonsense of class warfare … its not about the rich making money and individuals being green with envy, you should care more about an abusive, over taxing government. Didn’t we have a Revolutionary War over this once?

So soaking the rich would make how much money? Must be a lot for Obama to much this much time into it – on average less than $5 BILLION a year…. $5 BILLION it’s a lot of moo, it’d fund my good and bad habits for quite a while. But at the government level… $5 BILLION isn’t squat and would run the Federal government for less than two hours, so $5 BILLION – it’s laughable at that level.

By the way cutting federal spending just 1% like trips to Vegas and iPods for GSA workers would save $37 BILLION a year, cut it 10% do the math $370 BILLION a year.

On CNN ‘State of the Nation,’ Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus stated that the Obama backed “Buffett Rule,” was nothing more than a political maneuver meant to distract from his record on the economy. YA THINK!!!

Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus on Sunday said the proposed “Buffett Rule,” backed by President Barack Obama, is a political maneuver meant to distract from his record on the economy.

Priebus said the rule, which would level a minimum tax rate on millionaires, amounts to “one single tiny alteration of the tax code” that will not make a significant dent in the budget.
