Obama just gave another speech on CNN and lied.

[CaliPu33ycat]

I was watching the speech on CNN and realized Obama is full of crap. It's election time and he's out making promises he cant keep again.

Gawd I am so sick of him!

 

[KingOrfeo]

What specific promises that he can't keep?

 

[CaliPu33ycat]

What specific promises that he can't keep?

Seriously? Where do I start? 4 years ago Obama announced he could fix the housing crisis and did nothing.

Today he announced he would save homes in foreclosure and allow people to keep their homes even if they are unable to pay which is the same song and dance he preached 4 years ago.

I actually hate him now!

 

[Bugaloo_Dookie]

The speech is being called political poppycock as I type this.

 

[angela55]

A politician who lies? Who'd have thought...

 

[The_Trouvere]

The most damaging political lie during my lifetime was Ronald Reagan's claim in 1980 that he could cut taxes, raise defense spending, and balance the budget by 1983 without cutting popular middle class entitlements. That lead to the delusion, that persists to this day, that the American people can have the spending programs they want without paying for them.

Ok now Obama is back in the Gitmo train, Obama swore to close Gitmo before he became president.
Wow, I had no idea he made so many broken promises until more news reports this morning but how can the idiot make the same promises he failed at before.

If anyone votes for that loser they are idiots!

I watched the news this morning and it's unbelievable all the things he promised that never happened, the news channel named at least 75 broken promises, so many they could not report them all.

Simply amazing people would even consider voting for him.

Yeah but it's the same with all of those guys running for president. Romney or Newt won't be any different. President Obama has kept quite a few promises though:

Promise to increase pre-school education- check
Provide increased aid to Israel-check
Launch a veterans housing initiative to combat homelessness-check
Make national Guard leader a member of joint chiefs of staff-check
Strengthen anti trust enforcement-check
Require cabinet members to host local town halls-check
Expand Veteran's centers in rural areas-check
Increase special forces-check
Getting our troops out of Iraq-check
End the use of torture-check
Reform mandatory minimum sentences=check
Better Secure nuclear materials-check
Sign a universal Health bill-check

This is just a short list to show that he has kept promises and of course there are others that he either hasn't kept or that have been compromises with republicans or they've stalemated. But he is no better or worse than other politicians on keeping promises and being truthful. He's not that bad when compared. I'm not sure what all the anger is about?

According to politifact its 56 broken promises
and 165 that he kept.

But I doubt you'd be interested in crazy things like... facts.

Why do I need to post links when I saw it on the news this morning? I trust the world news more than some chick on a porn site with a cartoon AV.

Just saying.

Yup, you seem to say a lot, most if it simply nonsense.
I reiterate, I didn't think you'd care about actual facts.
I simply posted it for those who may stumble on your rant,
I didnt want them to confuse you're opinion for the truth.

That makes sense, but dig a little deeper. Check out Politifacts and some other websites. There are tons out there here's a webpage with a ton of sites listed.

Just as in 2008, he proclaimed that now was the time to end our dependence on foreign oil. For four years, he's been repeating the same promise, with no intention of keeping it. Just last month, the president blocked the Keystone energy pipeline, which would have brought safe, affordable energy -- and 20,000 jobs -- to America.

The president spoke of a "blueprint for an economy built to last." In context, that's an odd phrase, and warrants two questions. First, why is the president -- at the beginning of his fourth year in office -- only now offering a "blueprint" for economic recovery?

Second, how does a laundry list of repeated, broken promises constitute a blueprint for recovery? It's a blueprint for re-election, perhaps, but not for the economy.

We start with the first question. Obama based his candidacy on his ability to restore the economy. Voters elected him because he promised jobs and prosperity. He was so confident in his abilities that he promised in early 2009 that if he didn't have the economy fixed "in three years" then his presidency was "going to be a one-term proposition."

It's been three years. Unemployment is unacceptably high. Thirteen million Americans are out of a job. Millions more cannot find enough work. Our economy is stagnant and stalled. And yet President Obama merely offers "a blueprint."

The president said it would be different. He promised the stimulus would keep the unemployment rate below 8 percent. It shot past that threshold and has not been back since. On Tuesday, the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office predicted unemployment will average 8.9 percent in 2012. If that prediction holds, more Americans will be out of work at the end of Obama's term than at the beginning.

The president also promised to help small businesses -- a promise he's made before but never kept. In fact, with regulations, mandates and threats of higher taxes, he's spent the last three years making life harder for small business owners.

After three years, President Obama has failed -- and by his own standard. In November, Americans can hold him accountable to his promise of a "one-term proposition" and we can send a Republican to the White House. Our country needs a president who has a plan and a purpose -- not one who offers only a blueprint of broken promises.

He has made over 500 promises, according to Politifact.com, a fact-checking operation run by the Tampa Bay Times. But its tally makes clear the challenges. It shows that 162 promises were kept and 56 broken. The rest were either stalled, compromised or still in the works, according to the study.
