Obama: "All the folks who are cleaning the floors at the Capitol -- now that Congress has left, somebody is going to be vacuuming and cleaning those floors and throwing out the garbage -- they're going to have less pay," Mr. Obama said. "The janitors, the security guards, they just got a pay cut, and they've got to figure out how to manage that. That's real."

The president's mention prompted Carlos Elias, the superintendent of the U.S. Capitol building and the Capitol Visitors Center, to email his employees within hours of Mr. Obama's comment.
"The pay and benefits of EACH of our employees WILL NOT be impacted," Elias wrote.

Congress members should clean up their own mess anyway, they surely have the time.

Obama is getting as bad as Biden.

Is Biden giving him talking points or something ?

I'm thinking CBS news is about to get a threatening phone call. I hope they have caller I.D. and just ignore it. That's what I would do.

A new day, a new Obama lie...what else is new? The sun rises in the east too.

Honestly...even if it were true, so what? Private industry has to adjust to revenue changes (and yes, actual reductions, not just smaller increases) all the time. Sometimes pay cuts or layoffs happen, or we have to do more with less. Deal with it, you're not special just because you are government employees.

My, that's a lot of brown people out there looking to rape and pillage. Good thing you folks are armed.

Did I mention I will also ban "LOL," "ROFL," and "LMAO?"

What I don't understand us where is all the liberal outrage?

Wait, lying is acceptable. Never mind, carry on.
