Economy- The debt is absolutely no concern to me so I intend to keep up the same spending seen in my first four years. Big Banks, GM, Fannie-Freddie, Goldman, and the new Solyndra's have nothing to fear. I will give you trillions more.

FTFY...

Misleading Claims in Obama’s First 2012 Spot
Dissembling on ethics, jobs and oil imports
Posted on January 20, 2012 , Corrected on January 21, 2012

Summary
President Obama’s first 2012 campaign ad misleads on ethics, “clean-energy” jobs and U.S. dependence on oil imports.

■The spot uses outdated quotes from groups that said his record on ethics is “unprecedented” and that he “kept a promise to toughen ethics rules.” One of those same groups said later that he “has let down millions of Americans who accepted his word,” and another rated his promise as “broken.”
■The 30-second TV spot also trumpets a claim of “2.7 million jobs” in “America’s clean-energy industry.” That mostly counts jobs put in place long before Obama took office.
■Finally, it boasts that U.S. dependence on foreign oil has declined to below 50 percent, as a net share of total demand, for the first time in more than a decade. That’s true, and increasing U.S. oil production is a factor (despite Republican criticisms that Obama is anti-drilling). But economists say the chief factor is reduced oil consumption, brought on by the recent economic recession.

Q: Does Obama plan to deny emergency brain surgery for patients over 70?

A: No. A man claiming on a radio talk show to be a brain surgeon lied about that, and about a meeting of two associations of neurological surgeons, those associations say.

Newt’s Faulty Food-Stamp Claim

Newt Gingrich claims that “more people have been put on food stamps by Barack Obama than any president in American history.” He’s wrong. More were added under Bush than under Obama, according to the most recent figures

14.8 million under Bush OVER AN 8 YEAR PERIOD 1.8 million/year

14.2 million under Obama OVER A 3 YEAR PERIOD 4.7 million/year

And should Obama get elected he's on pace for 37.6 million over 8 years exceeding Bush by 22.6 million. Fact Check needs to be fact checked on this one.

No. You need to understand that the policies Bush put into place are still costing us trillions. The ongoing costs of the failed Bush presidency didn't magically stop the day he left office. We are still paying his war, tax and Rx drug costs today.

Obama has ended a war, had most of the bailouts paid back, given middle class tax cuts, and cut government spending across multiple departments. The truth doesn't jive with the created fantasies of the Obama haters, so they just ignore it.

You need to focus. This was a response concerning food stamps.

Only fools and morons listen to what politicians have to say in 2012 and actually believe them. Who cares what Obama says? Who cares what the reactions to the speech are? It is all a bunch of made up bullshit.

Only fools and morons ignore what's happening in this country, paying no attention at all. They deserve what they get.

Meanwhile most technical analysts (that actually track these sort of things) anticipate his trillion dollar artificial balloon will pop and are pretty near all in agreement that we'll see 8000 again - very soon actually. Here's one:

So Yay!!! We'll be back where we started, only trillions more in debt!! 4 more years!!! He's Great!!! Who else could pull off this amazing feat and still manage to squeeze in 140 rounds of golf a year??!!
