6. My favorite is when "they" talk about President Obama adding to the national debt

"they" will not or can not hear that the debt jumped up when Obama took office because of:

1) He put the wars on the books which W never did.

b) The bush tax cuts for the rich and an unfunded pharmaceutical pay off that the
republicans pushed through in 2005 (?)

iii) Obama's stimulus program which worked .... see the bikini graph

*******

BTW I was without power for the past 5 1/2 days and I had to listen to the local Fox news
radio channel for updates about the storm clean up and the fixing of the power lines and
good God in butter if people listen to that crap for "news" they are being lied to 24/7.
