When Obama was yelling about the tax-break for corporate jets, during the debt-ceiling fights of 2011 he brought up a tax break which was about how corporate jets were depreciated over five years instead of seven. Obama said Republicans were in bed with corporate-jet owners.

Today, Obama promised a billion dollars in taxpayer-backed subsidies for corporate jets, according to Bloomberg News.

I guess obama has evolved and decided to hop in bed with the rich evil corporate jet owning 1%.

Most of the time Obama just lies and knows the dems will believe every word.

But today, Obama's export-subsidy chief promised a billion dollars in taxpayer-backed subsidies for corporate jets, according to Bloomberg News.


Fred Hochberg heads the Export-Import Bank, a federal agency that subsidizes U.S. exports by loaning money or guaranteeing loans to foreign buyers of U.S. goods. Bloomberg reports:

Do you understand the difference between tax breaks to corporations that buy corporate jets, and financing for jet manufactures to export corporate jets?

You don't?

Okay, that's why.

The stimulus, the baby of the great orator, is what created the tax breaks that the orator screamed about in the debt ceiling debates to begin with. He's nothing but a liar and crook.
