Remarks of President Barack Obama in an Address to a Joint Session of Congress

Obama Criticized For “Making Remarks” In Speech

used ‘anglo-saxon language’ in speech during time of day when children might have been watching

Prophetic! From FoxHateNation:

A look at some of Obama’s claims and how they compare with the facts:

OBAMA: “Everything in this bill will be paid for. Everything.”

THE FACTS: Obama did not spell out exactly how he would pay for the measures contained in his nearly $450 billion American Jobs Act, but said he would send his proposed specifics in a week to the new congressional supercommittee charged with finding budget savings.

OBAMA: “Everything in here is the kind of proposal that’s been supported by both Democrats and Republicans, including many who sit here tonight.”

THE FACTS: Obama’s proposed cut in the Social Security payroll tax does seem likely to garner significant GOP support. But there are a lot of other proposals that already have generated stiff Republican opposition.

Somewhere, an idiot is nodding his head.
