IN THIS ISSUE

 

1.  Going to hospital.

2.  Examples of misinformation.

"VOTE, AN EDUCATED VOTE"

 

 

 

What is an educated vote?  It is one that has been made with as much knowledge, based on facts, not misinformation, that an individual can obtain.

from Floyd

 

Romney has, recently, made a charge that President Obama has raised spending more than any other President in history.  It simply is another bit of misinformation per the following.

 

 

Just learned I have to go to hospital for some surgery.  This is all there will be this week.  I wanted to send you quite a bit more, but the good Lord is calling so we must listen to him.  If he is willing, I'll talk with you next week.   Read the following example of misinformation.

 

"God Bless You all."

EXAMPLES OF MISINFORMATION.

 

On May 29, 2012, Mitt Romney.com posted this statement.  "Federal spending has accelerated at a pace without precedent in recent history."  This is wrong.  In fact, the Washington Post calls it "Utterly False."

 

Actually, under President Obama, annualized growth of Federal spending has been the slowest in decades.  The following tells a better story with a graph, but my blog won't print graphs.

 

                   Obama      2010-13                        1.4%

                   W. Bush    2006-09                        8.1%

                   W. Bush    2002-05                        7.3%

                   Clinton      1998-01                        3.9%

                   Clinton      1994-97                        3.2%

                   HW Bush  1990-93                        5.4%

                   Reagan     1986-89                        4.9%

                   Reagan     1982-85                        8.7%

 

Spending under President Obama has grown at the slowest rate of any President in last 60 years.  All this shows that, the Obama spending binge never happened.    The above information from WSJ Marketwatch.

 

Our President has signed into law spending cuts or deficit reduction measures, amounting to $2 trillion.  All of this by eliminating programs that aren't working.  This is part of a balanced plan to reduce the deficit by $4 trillion.

 

The Congressional Budget Office has determined that Mitt Romney's plan would increase the nation's deficit by as much as $5 trillion.  This would occur by the additional tax cuts for the wealthy that would allow an average of $250 thousand per millionaire and billionaire,  which Romney has not paid for in his plan.

 

The Washington Post made an interesting observation on 5/28/12.  "There are those who tell the truth.  There are those who distort the truth.  And then there's Mitt Romney."

 

President Obama has found new ways to cut waste in Washington.  There has been $20 billion cut from waste, fraud and abuse from Medicare, Medicaid, and Unemployment Insurance.  In fact, there was $10.7 billion recovered from health care fraud, including $4 billion in 2011 alone.
