Fact Checking Obama's Un Speech. He Lied And Lied And Lied......

[Clementine]

Talk about an inconvenient truth. Obama lied about everything during his UN speech and he's not fooling anyone, except maybe the useful idiots who never question him. Here's just one example, more at link:

OBAMA: "So, all told, these advances have helped create jobs, grow our economy, and drive our carbon pollution to its lowest levels in nearly two decades — proving that there does not have to be a conflict between a sound environment and strong economic growth."

THE FACTS: About half of the 10 percent reduction in greenhouse gas emissions the U.S. has achieved in recent years can be attributed to the economic recession, not any specific actions from the Obama administration. Obama's comments also left out that U.S. carbon emissions rose 2.9 percent from 2012 to 2013, the first increase since 2007, because higher natural gas prices spurred more coal use.

Are you really surprised??

I'm more surprised when a Democrat is caught telling the truth. I also circle that day in Red on my calendar.

Interesting that you disagree with the president when he says that 'there does not have to be a conflict between a sound environment and strong economic growth'.

So we have to pick one or the other?

lol

So you're going to cherry pick a few things and pretend that is what this is all about. How disingenuous.

I am talking about the claims he made that were absolutely false. You read it and know exactly what I'm talking about. But, you want to play around, deny and point out little things that he said that are fillers in his speech and pretend that is the issue.
