Bob Woodward appeared on MSNBC’s Morning Joe today, and said that despite what the Obama campaign is saying now about Medicare, President Obama wants to cut the program by $250 billion.
Medicare entitlement expenses have to be figured out. But while Sen. Obama campaigned on reforming entitlements four years ago, he has done nothing but demagogue any efforts at reform ever since. ObamaCare raids Medicare to the tune of about $700 billion, yet Obama has accused Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan of scheming to cut the program. All the while, if Bob Woodward is right, Obama is planning more cuts himself.
Notice the look on Mika’s face….
I love it – the Obama smear machine has been screaming for months about how Romney/Ryan gonna push gramma over the cliff when all the while they’ve been greasing the skids to make sure she falls down the elevator shaft. You can always tell what a lefty is planning because he’ll accuse someone else of doing it first.
I’m sceptical.
The problem is the phrase “it would be irresponsible”, supposedly uttered by obama himself.
Point 1. the Liar doesn’t give a flip about responsibility. His whole life and all of his campaigns are an ATTACK on responsiblity in every way, shape and manner.
Point 2. he never says anything that isn’t a lie. Whatever he says is either a direct lie, or a setup for a future lie.
He was manipulating Woodward. And don’t assume that the manipulation makes sense either. It doesn’t have to make sense to a rational person. It’s obama who said it.
One possiblity is that this is a way to get a message to the sliver of independents who actually think. This clip and Woodward’s comments will never be heard by the cultists, and even if they are heard, they won’t believe the words since they EXPECT him to lie about everything. But some independents might pay attention, so the Liar may be running the con of telling them that yes (the lie), I recognize that Medicare has to be cut…all with multiple levls of deniability, of course.
