In an interview with NBC’s Chuck Todd on August 5, 2009, when asked how raising taxes on anyone helps the economy, President Obama said: “The last thing you want to do is raise taxes in the middle of a recession because that would suck up… take more demand out of the economy and put businesses in a further hole.”

    Ya, Pinocchio’s nose just keeps growing, and growing, and growing…

    • Jackie

      Along with his Dumbo ears (apologies to Dumbo) and his oddly unnatural looking lying purple lips.

        Obama’s purple lips come from kissing Bahney Fwank who loves grape juice.

        • no0bama2012

          drinking all that grape kool aid

    • Hobe

      Pinocchio’s nose, Dumbo’s ears, Barney Frank’s lipstick and a pupett for George Soros. Obama is a Marxist freak.

    • traitors in our gov

      He was just telling us exactly what his plan was (and is).. He was always transparent, you just had to look past that glare. Everything he says not to do he is doing…

  • Stephen Tanner

    When you are a professional liar, these small issues are hardly a ripple in the pond. bho – Liar in Chief.

  • True American-believes in original U.S. Constitution of 1778

    The LIAR-IN-CHIEF has done it again. He’s done this about a million times. He contradicted what he said in 2009 and now he wants to raise taxes in the worst economy in the history of America in the 21st Century. PINOCCHIO!!!!!!!!!! HYPOCRITE!!!!!!!!!! Where is Barney ‘the freak’ Frank when you need him? Where is George Sore-ass when you need them? Actually, we don’t need either queer and slime of the earth. But, poor, poor Abysmal Obumer needs them. SHAME!!!!!!!!! See my website: http://www.haasstrep68.com

  • anna

    He and his corrupt administration, are hypocrites, that’s all.

  • twocolts

    I think I know where Barney Frank is, but I cannot print it here, but we all know Barney is a “fairy-fine-fellow”.

  • Frances Hernandez

    Hussein remembers what he said. So he acts the cool idiot and fools them again because he believes that the kool aid will still be working on the zombies.

    You do if you are trying to destroy the nation and the economy.

  • Dave

    Now, now folks. Obama said “you” shouldn’t raise taxes in a recession – he never said HE shouldn’t.

  • http://conservitivebytes george morrison:: with a severe case of RED ASS

    he would’nt remember ever saying that even if he saw the video,remember he is the liar in cheif maybe he should take the advise of some of those other democraps and not seek re-election but in his mind he has done no wrong in any of this remember it was caused by arab spring,tsunamis in japan,george bush,the tea party,republicians and just about everything but barack obama so that ain’t likely to happen ,what I would like to see happen is the congress call him down on all these things and make him give responsible answers for this stupidity and explain to america why he did the irresponsible things he has done, then make him resign just like tricky dick nixon did, now that sounds like a responsible plan

    It appears that when Buckwheat gives his speeches, the words on the teleprompters travel from his eyes to his mouth without registering on his brain. He has no recollection of what he said in the past and therefore contradicts himself without realizing it.
    Well…it’s one explanation.

  • Ralph

    give a man a fish and you feed him for a day, teach him how to fish and you lose a democratic voter.

  • M. J. Monson

    That insane liar can’t even keep his lies straight. He has told so many that he must lie again to cover his own and the democraps outrageous lies.

  • Hexla

    Every time I see him give a speech I have a desire to slap him and beat the s..t out of him.
    And he is full of it!

  • Steven

    Obama is comfortable saying one thing and then the opposite whenever he feels it will make him electable….and the lame stream media do nothing about this continual flip flopping. It is obvious Obama has not political morals and will lie, cheat, decieve, bully, and have tantrums for whatever he is told to do by his handlers such as Mr. Axel-Dick and everyones favorite former Nazi, George Soros. What is truly amazing is how the flesh and blood Obama supporters can honestly believe anything from Obama’s mouth. Obama has no shame and will continue to contradict himself and only a few media will hold him accountable.

    LIAR! LIAR! PANTS ON FIRE!!! Umm…seems to me that to lie as much as our “leader” does, one must be able to remember all the lies told. Perhaps it is he that suffers from memory loss instead of us who live out here in Reality Heights?
    Someday, the truth will come out and the brown stuff will hit the oscillating device so get your plastic bags out and at the ready because it will get messy!!! All that stuff that he is doing in secret (or has done in secret) will come out. The truth will win.
    Keep praying for our country, people and get out the vote. Let’s get this jerk out in 2012!!! We need to do the job the congress has failed to do because he subverts our laws (or twists them in knots) to get his agenda done. (You know it is bad when even your lawmakers don’t know the Constitution or the basic laws, or don’t even care about them.)
    Let’s turn our “hearts toward our fathers”–learn about our founding fathers and the documents of our nation and keep the feet of our reps. in the fire. The govt is supposed to be BY the PEOPLE and FOR the PEOPLE!!! We are citizens, not subjects. Let’s be goats and not sheep. Butt everything he does and butt it hard…fight with all you’ve got. Question, question, and question more no matter how mad the other side gets. Make them answer. You will eventually get at the truth because sometimes, without them kn0wing or being able to control it, the truth is spoken. Hold everyone accountable. Educate yourself. Knowledge is power. Why do you think the Liberals have been dumbing us down for years? It is a control thing.

  • Bob

    As usual he “flip flops” and speaks with a “forked tongue”…..he is NO GOOD for US.

    • No fool

      That’s what village idiots do best.

  • Pat riot

    The B.C. is the key to removing Obummer, focus, demand congressional action !!!!! if we let them get away with this ,you will see Arnold schwarzenegger running !!!!!

    Posted on Eric,I wednor, the Administration that was asleep at the wheel in your blaming 9/11 on, could that have possibly been the one that also had White House aides on their knees?As bad as the circumstances were under Bush in your overly active imagination youd think that he was trying to take total governmental control over America. Something that Obama and his liberal congress is well on their way to doing in just two short months.The black man doesnt bother me even though your favorite word for me is racist. The bottomfeeders do. They are there because they choose to be not because they havent been afforded the chances to rise above their squallor.I did look at Wikipedias explaination of ACORN, and then did a liltle further exploring. The various sites gave me ACORN telling me what a good institution ACORN is. Well pat me on the back Superman, did you honestly think any of those sites were going show any thing derogatory about them. An intelligent person would wednor who has to do the reasearch. I deal in sound reasoning, rational thought and common sense. I dont believe everything I hear or read from the left-media. I suggest you do the same in order to get a less one sided veiw. Thats oppressive.
