Example of the Lies About Obama Admin:

My sister received an email from a friend recently that was filled with lies that are being passed around the Internet.  I feel the need to repeat the email but with CORRECTIONS on what it states from FactCheck.Org

CLAIM:

WHERE ARE THEY NOW?
The three men who brought down Wall Street.
Here’s a quick look into the three former Fannie Mae executives who brought down Wall Street.
Franklin Raines was a Chairman and Chief Executive Officer at Fannie Mae. Raines was forced to retire from his position with Fannie Mae when auditing discovered severe irregularities in Fannie Mae’s accounting activities. Raines left with a “golden parachute valued at $240 Million in benefits. The Government filed suit against Raines when the depth of the accounting scandal became clear.
Tim Howard - was the Chief Financial Officer of Fannie Mae. Howard “was a strong internal proponent of using accounting strategies that would ensure a “stable pattern of earnings” at Fannie. Investigations by federal regulators and the company’s board of directors since concluded that management did manipulate 1998 earnings to trigger bonuses. Raines and Howard resigned under pressure in late 2004. Howard’s Golden Parachute was estimated at $20 Million!
Jim Johnson - A former executive at Lehman Brothers and who was later forced from his position as Fannie Mae CEO. Investigators found that Fannie Mae had hidden a substantial amount of Johnson’s 1998 compensation from the public, reporting that it was between $6 million and $7 million when in fact it was $21 million.” Johnson is currently under investigation for taking illegal loans from Countrywide while serving as CEO of Fannie Mae. Johnson’s Golden Parachute was estimated at $28 Million. WHERE ARE THEY NOW?
FRANKLIN RAINES? Raines works for the Obama Campaign as his Chief Economic Advisor.
TIM HOWARD? Howard is a Chief Economic Advisor t o Obama under Franklin Raines.
JIM JOHNSON? Johnson was hired as a Senior Obama Finance Advisor and was selected to run Obama’s Vice Presidential Search Committee.
Are we stupid or what? Vote in 2012..it is the most important election of our lives…

Obama’s a Socialist that Likes Mandates – Say What?

It just occurred to me that Newt Gingrich, Mitt Romney and Rick Santorum are contradicting themselves with their own claims about Barack Obama being a “food stamp president” who wants to “maximize dependency” of the poor on the government and him, thereby providing guaranteed votes come election day.

How can a person want people to be dependent on them for their benefits and at the same time tell those same people they will have to come up with their own money to buy something?

That’s right folks.  President Obama wants people jobless, getting unemployment benefits and on food stamps while also demanding (mandating) that they pay for their on health insurance premiums.  Does this sound like a socialist plan to you?

Exactly how would that work Newt, Mitt or Rick?  If they are jobless and on unemployment and getting foodstamps, how in the world would they be able to buy health insurance coverage?

Lastly, if people are purposely made to be unemployed, getting foodstamps and being forced to buy health insurance — exactly how does that produce Votes for Obama?  Ya think maybe those same folks would be a tad upset with the President for getting them in such a bad situation?  Why on earth would they bother voting for such a person?
