Dear President Obama: When you stand there and tell us that there's no pork in the massive waste of money, you're a liar. Why?

WHY ARE YOU LYING TO US?

When you tell us that:
"Now, there will be some people who say this is a pork bill, but this bill does not have a single earmark in it, which is unprecedented for its size."
YOU ARE LYING, MR PRESIDENT.

Why? Your decision to engage in verbal gymnastics doesn't change the FACT that this massive indebtedness program and colossal waste of money is FILLED with enough pork that it will put Hormel to shame!

Your remarks make no more sense than they would if you were to come out and tell everyone that secretly, you are a Republican.

The Washington Post -- Billions may go to waste because stimulus money will be spent faster than it can be tracked: "The Obama administration's economic stimulus plan could end up wasting billions of dollars by attempting to spend money faster than an overburdened government acquisition system can manage and oversee it, according to documents and interviews with contracting specialists.

Related post at the conservative Townhall.com -- $300 million for "golf carts": "$300 million has been allocated in the stimulus bill for modern golf carts and other forms of environmentally friendly modes of transportation. The Democrats thought they could fool you by renaming the money earmarked for golf carts in the stimulus bill as paying for 'neighborhood electric vehicles' and 'low speed motor vehicles.' "

And yet, you stand there and tell us this?

"Now, there will be some people who say this is a pork bill, but this bill does not have a single earmark in it, which is unprecedented for its size."

Words fail me at how much you are lying. I'm sure that you can justify your nonsensical, belief defying lies... but that's what they are, Mr. President: Lies.

And that's what you're Administration will be known for, Mr. President: The Administration of Criminals and Liars. You're making President Bush look like President Lincoln in comparison to your lying, moronic efforts.

And remember this, Mr. President: The more you lie and think we're stupid, the more despised you will be.

  1. Amen, just a guy. I was yelling the same thing at my TV this morning when I watched the Messiah address the adoring masses of Elkhart IN.

    I have a feeling I'll be hollering at the TV again when the Messiah addressses the country this evening.

    (great site, dude.)

  2. Thanks for stopping by, and we're in complete agreement. This is an unbelievable scam and I am truly ashamed of my government and what they're doing to us.

  3. You`d think a Muslim would recognize pork, and for that matter, an earmark, with ears like his...
