The Fiscal Cliff 'Show'
by Lee S Gliddon Jr
President Obama's latest, 'show,' was another effort to sell his followers the false belief he actually wants to stop tax increases. In all truth he and his Congressional cohorts want increased spending, higher taxation, and the demise of the Republican Party.
When Obama stood before the Liberal Media and asserted the claim that it was, "now time for Congress to do it's job," he intended to convey to America that it was the House of Representatives standing in the way of progress.
This is a lie and if he does not know that as a fact then he is totally out of touch with reality!
Also, when Obama says that the Republicans have yet to list the cuts they want to set forth he is lying yet again.
The House of Representatives has PASSED numerous Bills that are totally budget related. Those Bills list items to be cut as well as initiatives that strengthen our Economy as well as easing the Unemployment burden that exists.
Where are those Bills?
The answer is that they languish in the desk of Senator Harry Reid, Majority Leader of the Senate! Reid steadfastly refuses to allow a vote on a single one of those Bills although they PASSED in a Bipartisan fashion!
Yet another lie being perpetrated by Obama is the constant repetition of, "reducing of taxes on 98% of Americans."
Maybe a simple question asked by an honest press corps of, "How do you ease the tax burden of 98 % when over 40% pay no taxes whatever?"
Sadly, I remember a day when America could reply on the words of a President that, although tainted with his Party's ideology, were honest and forthright. But, like Archie and Edith Bunker sang, "Those were the days"
