Yesterday I wrote about Obama’s CBO lie. That was posted shortly before the CBO score was released on the House’s reconciliation bill. In that article, I outlined two major manipulations that President Obama, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid have been utilizing to force the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) to score the bill as costing less [...]
The gang of three (Obama, Pelosi and Reid) are guilty of what is tantamount to lying to the American public.

Two of the most blatant [...]

Today the House voted to raise the United States debt ceiling by $1.9 trillion to $14.3 trillion.

Rather than reign in spending, Democrats in Congress simply voted themselves a credit line increase, meaning [...]
Earlier in the month, we reported on how 20 congressmen and 80+ spouses and staffers took a joy ride to Copenhagen at huge tax payer expense. At that time, we focused mostly on the nearly $200,000 it cost to operate the two military 737 and one G5 jets that were used to fly the group [...]

It would appear there are some cracks forming in the United Democratic Party of Washington DC. President Obama’s party support appears to be falling away about as fast as his approval rating.
