A “Fact Check” column in a recent Sun Journal reinforced what I have been saying for some time. Does President Obama lie, or is he uninformed?

He has stated that he would utilize money the country would no longer be spending on wars to pay down the national debt. The country borrowed the money to pay for the ways, so there are no funds.

Obama talks about reducing the cost of health care but check out his answer. He then talks about an increase in manufacturing jobs of 500,000. He never includes the fact that the country has lost 500,000 jobs, which equals zero net jobs.

The U.S. spends $43.6 million for food stamps; more than $500 million of taxpayers’ funds to Solyndra; and borrows 42 cents of every dollar spent. Liberals will reply that 42 cents is peanuts. Liberals have forgotten how to add, subtract and multiply, as simple arithmetic shows that same 42 cents works out to $42 billion if $100 billion is spent. And Obama’s administration will increase the national debt by more than $1 trillion this year.

He is the same guy who, in 2008 speeches, took George W. Bush apart for adding debt of $4-$5 billion in eight years. Obama has added more than $5 trillion in three and one-half years.

He has visited 57 states (and he is intelligent?); has stated that he reduced taxes for 98 percent of the people (49-51 percent pay no income taxes). That must be magic. (And he is intelligent?)

No wonder he refuses to release his school records.
