 SH> 2.  The AP is punked by a group of hoaksters whose blog
 SH> reported that GE would repay more than $3 billion in tax
 SH> credits (corporate welfare) they got from the Obama
 SH> administration.  Not only did GE get tax credits for moving
 SH> jobs offshore, CEO Jeff Immelt got a seat on Obama's jobs
 SH> advisory panel.

 Lie number 1. In the late '90s the republican congress passed a
 bill allowing corporations, including GE, to avoid taxes by
 shifting profits overseas. In 2004 the republican congress
 passed another such tax dodge.

 Obama didn't give GE those tax dodges, they were beyond his
 control.

 SH> 3.  In a surprise move - out of left field, really - a
 SH> democrat president proposes that the government raise taxes
 SH> on the rich - rich to be defined by said governemt.  Like
 SH> the classless Clinton before him, Obama reminds us that he
 SH> is rich.

 And Obama's plan would increase taxes on Obama. Remember, 100%
 of the post WWII increase in the debt burden, the debt as
 percent of GDP, accumulated under 3 anti-tax republican
 presidents.


 SH> 4.  Seems that the most transparent presidency in history
 SH> (that was his promise, right?) is concealing visits with
 SH> lobbyists by meeting with them at a coffee shop across the
 SH> street from the White House.  White House visitors' logs

 Obama is going to a coffee shop across the street from the
 Whitehouse?

 ...

 SH> 5.  American fighter jets are again dropping bombs on Libya
 SH> - this after Obama told Americans that other countries
 SH> would take over the Libya operation.

 Nato did take over. And the US is a member of NATO. The US has
 solid justification and a very good moral cause for taking down
 Kadaffi.

 SH> 6.  Nancy Pelosi says, in effect, that it's too bad that we
 SH> have elections, echoing Obama's sentiments that he wishes
 SH> he had the powers of China's dictator.  Didn't one of the
 SH> moonbats here lose what passes for his mind when G.W. Bush
 SH> expressed similar ideas?

 And when did she ever say that? I sure hope he has a link to it.

   Hope Hope Hope Hope Hope Hope Hope Hope Hope Hope Hope Hope

 OTOH, when did Obama say that?

 SH> 7.  Indicating that he has heard the clarion call of the
 SH> New Politics of Civility (Cigar Willy, co chair), Rep. Ed
 SH> Markey says that Republicans want to destroy "the whole
 SH> wide world," and, worse yet, that they want to destroy the
 SH> internet.

 Speaking the truth might well be uncivil.

 SH> 8.  People who attended the High Level Budget Summit at the
 SH> Oval Office say that the one area where Obama would not
 SH> compromise is federal funding for abortion.

 People who attended the high level budget summit and lied about
 it.

 Federal funding for elective abortion is forbidden under
 current law, and that law was not changed under Obama. Even
 National Health Care is covered by that law.

  SH> Like Cigar
 SH> Willy before him, Obama will keep one promise - that is, he
 SH> will continue to fund the killing of unborn babies under
 SH> the guise of women's health - or is it women's reproductive
 SH> freedom these days?

 Lie number 2. Or is it lie number 3?
