I Think George Washington Told Lies...

Then we are living in better times, Cage, since there are plenty of "detectives" around to expose the numerous lies of Limbaugh, Beck, Hannity, etc.!

You could be right...shouldn't be too hard for a "good detective" to track this guy down...

Negotiate health care reform in public sessions televised on C-SPAN
“I’m going to have all the negotiations around a big table. We’ll have doctors and nurses and hospital administrators. Insurance companies, drug companies – they’ll get a seat at the table, they just won’t be able to buy every chair. But what we will do is, we’ll have the negotiations televised on C-SPAN, so that people can see who is making arguments on behalf of their constituents, and who are making arguments on behalf of the drug companies or the insurance companies. And so, that approach, I think is what is going to allow people to stay involved in this process.”
(from a town hall meeting on Aug. 21, 2008, in Chester, Va.)

At a debate in Los Angeles he expanded on the idea, saying,
“That’s what I will do in bringing all parties together, not negotiating behind closed doors, but bringing all parties together, and broadcasting those negotiations on C-SPAN so that the American people can see what the choices are, because part of what we have to do is enlist the American people in this process.”

As often as he could Barack Obama said that he intended to negotiate health care reform publicly. Loving the amount of coverage he got on the nightly news from this sound bite, he also promised to televise the negotiations on C-SPAN, with all the parties sitting at a big table.



“I cannot guarantee that it is going to be in the first 100 days. But what I can guarantee is that we will have in the first year an immigration bill that I strongly support and that I’m promoting. And I want to move that forward as quickly as possible.”
(from a Jorge Ramos interview with candidate Barack Obama, May 28, 2008.)

Obama was going to fix everything, remember? He promised to secure the border, and to put pressure on employers who hire illegals (or, as he calls them “undocumented workers”). Obama promised to pursue immigration reform aggressively. By the way – no comprehensive immigration reform measure supported by Obama has ever been introduced in Congress.


“Will eliminate all income taxation of seniors making less than $50,000 per year. This will eliminate taxes for 7 million seniors — saving them an average of $1,400 a year– and will also mean that 27 million seniors will not need to file an income tax return at all.”

(from Obama’s “Comprehensive Tax Plan”)
This one has just seemed to disappear as fast as a file folder in Vince Foster’s office. It wasn’t in the economic “stimulus” bill (the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act), and it wasn’t ever part of any proposed legislation.

Thanks cage, I had forgotten a lot of obuma’s lies (there are so many). I’m gonna keep this for future use.
