"President Obama spun a work of creative nonfiction yesterday in his latest pitch for his jobs plan, fudging the facts of a Boston schoolteacher’s White House visit as he cast the man as a poster boy for the hot-button bill.
“I had a chance to meet a young man named Robert Baroz,” the president said at a midday news conference. “He’s got two decades of teaching experience. He’s got a master’s degree. He’s got an outstanding track record of helping his students make huge gains in reading and writing. In the last few years, he’s received three pink slips because of budget cuts. Why wouldn’t we want to pass a bill that puts somebody like Robert back in the classroom teaching our kids?”
Two problems: Obama never met Baroz. And Baroz remains happily employed."

With millions of Americans out of a job, don't you think the President could meet ONE of them and actually use ONE unemployed person as his example ??????? Does he HAVE TO LIE ????? and mislead people just to make a point?

I've gotten used to Obama lying. To save clutter I think someone should just place a sticky titled "Bammer's Latest Lie."
What really troubles me is this comment from the teacher, an educator, a man paid by tax dollars to educate children:
Quote:
Baroz, who supports Obama and his efforts to restore the public sector, told the Herald yesterday he doesn’t mind if the president — or his speechwriters — took some liberties with the facts. It was all in aid of a higher truth, he said.
A "Higher Truth." ??????
Liberalism really is a religion complete with useful idiots of blind faith.
Every time Obummer opens his mouth, lies of some sort come out. Pathetic that the leftie/libs will find a way to deflect and downplay this.
