Asked about special deals still in the bill, he tried to justify the "Louisiana Purchase", where Landreau got $300 million dollars for her vote, and was proud of it.
As you may know, they can't really just say "Louisiana's Senator gets $300 million for her vote". Instead, they have to write something that applies to everybody who meets the "qualifications". Then they put enough qualifiers in so that, when it's done, only the targeted item is covered.
As the Lousiana Purchase was described:
According to ABC News's Jonathan Karl, Majority Leader Reid's (D-NV) bill has a provision increasing federal Medicaid subsidies for "certain states recovering from a major disaster." The section goes on for two pages defining which "states" would qualify, including states that "during the preceding 7 fiscal years" have been declared a "major disaster area."
How many states does that apply to? Exactly one state: Lousiana,
Got that? It applies to a state that, in the PREVIOUS 7 years, had a disaster, and only Loiusiana qualifies.
But Obama, the clueless one, said this on a NATIONAL TV Interview:
OBAMA: That also — I'm giving you an example of one that I consider important. It also affects Hawaii, which went through an earthquake. So that's not just a Louisiana provision. That is a provision that affects every state that is going through a natural catastrophe.
Got that? The bill explicitly says it's for states that PREVIOUSLY had a disaster, but Obama lied and said it covers states that are GOING through a natural catastrophe. He also lied about Hawaii having an Earthquake. Unless he meant Haiti, and thinks that Haiti is one of our 57 states.
This is how Obama wants to pass Health Care, by lying about it. I am sick and tired of liberals claiming that we are wrong about Obama lying. We have two lies in this one paragraph.
Unless you want to argue that Obama is just stupid. Which is probably true.

Is there an option "C"? "All of the above"?
Our President....How about our Loudoun County Board of Supervisors seeking to VOLUNTARYLY place Chesapeake Bay Act restructions on ALL its residents. More government oversight, more tax dollars needed, less money for residents to pay their mortagage....priceless.
Obama is not an American and is a lying idiot that should be tried for treason and jailed forever or executed for high treason against our country. His is trying to become our Dictator and Tyrant. His is a blooming idiot and liar.
Our president and Senate are destroying all belief in our system of government. I want the truth from our elected officials not lies and half truths. End the lies end the Obama administration.
