If Obama’s Allowed to Lie, I’m Allowed to Be Snarky

If Obama’s Allowed to Lie, I’m Allowed to Be Snarky

Posted on February 9, 2011 by Dan Mitchell

I didn’t watch President Obama’s interview with Bill O’Reilly a couple of days ago, and that’s probably a good thing since I probably would have suffered a stroke if I actually heard Obama state, “I didn’t raise taxes once.”

This was such an absurd display of mendacity that even the left-leaning PolitiFact people had no choice but to conclude that Obama’s statement was false.

I suppose I could take a mature approach to this controversy and explain in mind-numbing detail why the President was wrong, but that wouldn’t be much fun. I’d much rather copy the guy who did the famous QE2 video and have some fun.

This is my first experiment with a cartoon video, so I welcome feedback.
