Wow, are we really a nation of morons? When Obama speaks, he does it as if his speech writers have given him the next historical document and the TV cameras on recording gold.
This week, we were informed by "our" president that he's going to "tax the rich". He then proceeds to say that the aforementioned "rich" are people making more than $250k per year. Of course the next day he alters that and now the "rich" are people making more than $208k per year.
Why is this a lie? Because those people are not "The Rich" by any stretch of the word. Had he said the rich were those making $1million or more per year, he would have been somewhat honest. However, his $208k or $250k (depending on the day) targets a large demographic of individuals and business that are GOOD for our economy and provide more benefits than the additional tax burden will achieve.
The only things that saves Obama in the eyes of the common voter would be the fact that more people do not make $208k per year than do. He doesn't have to be honest or fair to the people he is taxing, he just needs to make more friends than enemies.
Obama's lie is that rather than playing Robin Hood and robbing the rich and giving it to the poor, he's attacking the PRODUCERS in our society, leaving the real "Rich" out of harms way, and pandering to the poor. But, until he takes it out on your demographic, sleep easy and be glad that somebody else is shouldering the burden for you.
