"200 million dollar a day Vacation" and other whopper lies about Obama

[Stephanie]

some people just have way too much time on their hands...so they decide to bore us here instead

Which isn't very hard for you. You don't like facts. You don't want to be educated. You repeat the same endless nonsense about the president. If you spent half your time with Google or with a newspaper finding out what is actually happening, you might eventually become an interesting person. Think about it. Give it a shot.

OMG...

 

[rdean]

and the whining bore continues

You're right. I love videos of Conservatives whining. So musical.

The BIG LIES that American has had to endure regarding Obama are a thing to behold, are they not?

The GOP has taken its gamebook from Goebels, that's for damned sure.

 

[Stephanie]

Awwww, people lied about Obama, my heart bleeds

 

[Listening]

The 200 million dollars a day didn't come from Republicans, it came from the press in India. Just because democrats deny it, that doesn't make it untrue.

obamas entry into India was rivalled only by Cleopatra's entrance into Rome.

Watch the link....several of the Fox people question if that is really the case.

But RDean just can't help but do his imitation of Pinochio.

In 1999, GAO estimated the incremental costs, including per diem and related expenses, of
presidential trips in 1998 to Africa, Chile, and China to be at least $42.8 million, $10.5 million,
and $18.8 million respectively.16 In 2000, GAO estimated that the Department of Defense “spent
at least $292 million to provide fixed-wing airlift and air refueling support for 159 White House
foreign trips” (27 by the President, 20 by the First Lady, 8 by the Vice President, and 104 directed
by the President) from January 1, 1997, through March 31, 2000.17 These estimates did not
include per diem and other travel-related expenses.
Comparable information is not available regarding the cost of White House foreign (or domestic)
trips for earlier or subsequent Administrations.

Why would current info not be available?

The 200 million a day figure came from Indian sources. Whether it's true or not doesn't change the source. Now democrats want to say that republicans said that the India trip was a vacation. It wasn't. It was a legitimate economic policy trip that obama and his empress turned into a shopping excursion.

The 200 million dollar a day Vacation is probably my all time favorite Republican lie about Obama. When I first heard that whopper, I thought, "No one is so stupid they would believe something that ridiculous. It just isn't possible".

Obama to See India on $200 Million a Day*|*Conservatives for America

FOX News false reporting on cost of Obama's journey to India - YouTube

Remember when Republicans were screaming that we need to close Gitmo? Even the generals said it's a terrible recruiting tool for al Qaeda. So Obama started the proceedings and then what happened:

Why Would Obama Release Gitmo's Islamic Terrorists onto our Streets?

So this became a lie turning 360 degrees into another lie. Amazing.

Then there is the lie about the Bush Tax cuts. See? Obama wanted them because he agreed to them. Only:

Unemployment benefits: not until Bush tax cuts pass, Senate GOP says - CSMonitor.com

Republicans were willing to sacrifice millions of Americans to destitution to get a few more bucks for billionaires. Obama wasn't. Then they said he was "weak". Because they could allow millions of Americans to suffer and he couldn't so he must be "weak" and they are "strong". So Mitt doesn't care about the 47% so he must be strong. Strong like the Republicans. When I was growing up, people like that were called "bastards". Today, conservatives call them "patriots".

Then the other endless lies that are so easily fact checked. Obama's vacations. Fewer than any president in modern history. And all his "regulations", fewer than President Bush. In fact, many regulations are mandated by the courts and the president has nothing to do with them.

Republican lies even trickle down. Remember when the right wingers were calling me a liar when I said Republicans were blocking the BP investigation? Remember? I remember.

Subpoena power in BP oil spill investigation blocked by Senate Republicans

And when I point out these lies, Republicans all say I'm linking to left wing sites. And look here. My links are Fox and the Right Wing Christian Science Monitor and other sites hardly left wing. See, the lies are so big, they are everywhere.

I bet I could sit here and list 100 Republican lies without even looking up a single thing. Because they lie that much. Worse, when they say Obama lied and you ask about what, they lie about about that. There is no lie to small from Republicans to make up and no whopper to big for them to repeat endlessly as gospel.

What do you want to bet the lies I just pointed out, many right wingers on the USMB still believe to be true?

Anyone want to list some more right wing lies? It really is "fun".

You say the 200 million figure is wrong yet you offer no proof as to the actual cost, I can't think of one thing you have offered on this subject that makes you more credible than anyone else on. You might want to find what it cost to move 3000 people and 40 aircraft with at least two crews each and maintenance personnel, a third of the way round the world. Plus you have advanced and trail security and logistics, along with housing and meals for that many people, I would bet the sepculated figure is not that far off, but I can't find any credible source that states the actual cost.

Now that sounds just plain stupid. I don't have to defend nonsense. Why? Because it's nonsense.

What is it with these right wingers?

Rick Santorum: smart people got no reason to vote conservative

Your entitled to your opinion, you are not entitled to your own facts, of course here all you have is opinion because you provide no facts. Opinions sir are like but holes, every one has one and most all of them stink. Answer this, how many times have you participated in logistical planning to move just a few hundred people and equipement into foreign countries. Tell us what experience you base your opinion on, I base mine on moving battalion sized engineer units from one country to another and conducting engineer operations. Come on hero, show us your made up of more than just hot air.

"LAIR!!!"(sic)

A direct comparison places Obama squarely on middle ground of presidential vacation days used. Of the past five presidents, during their first year in office, only two, Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton took less time off than Obama.

Unless you don't "consider" Jimmy Carter & Bill Clinton as being "modern" or even "Presidents".

Ronald Reagan, George HW Bush and his son all spent much more time away from the White House than the current occupant.

I'm sorry, I meant to say "Republican President". My bad. Thanks for pointing that out. I stand corrected.

So you are "admitting" that you "made things up" when you started the "thread"?

That's "good to know". I will now "laugh at" and "mock" any "threads" you start in the "future".

No, thank you for pointing out how Republican Presidents are so "lazy" compared to Obama.

Because 200 million dollars a day is what the entire military spends in Afghanistan every single day. Obviously, you didn't know that. So what else you don't know?

 

[rdean]

obamas entry into India was rivalled only by Cleopatra's entrance into Rome.

So, it's the press in India's fault. No one in America, RW media or otherwise is RESPONSIBLE for checking out the ridiculousness of such a claim.

So much for the Right being the peopled for personal responsibility.....it's all someone else's fault you people are blithering idiots.

I don't see the left fact checking the crap their masters spew either. 'You people' should stop whining and hold your own side accountable.

What are you talking about. Give examples.

 

[rdean]

Has obama ever released the cost of the trip to India? If the 200 million a day is not true, how much does it cost to have 12% of the American Navy following the presidebt?

FactCheck.org : Trip to Mumbai

Robert Gibbs said:

Gibbs, Nov 4: Well, we have set the record straight with you guys. I’m not going to go into how much it costs to protect the president. Costs are comparable to when President Clinton and when President Bush traveled abroad.

Neither Clinton nor Bush ever took the Navy with them.

12% of the Navy follows the president?

Hilarious!

Fucking hilarious!

No, "thank you" for "giving" me the "opportunity" to point out how "lazy" Obama is "compared" to other Democrat presidents.

"200 million dollar a day Vacation" and other whopper lies about Obama


rdean cannot prove this is not true;

Obama sneaks out of the White House once a week and goes to Burger King to eat a 'Whopper with Cheese', and the Secret Service is afraid to tell Michelle about it.
