These are actual recorded statements made by Barrack Hussein Obama, as a candidate or as president.  You be the judge of what kind of man we elected.   Was he being truthful, like a man of honor, standing tall on virtue or do you think he’s saying whatever he thinks will advance his own agenda:

• “Nobody is listening to your telephone calls.”
• “If you like your doctor or health care plan, you can keep it.”
• “When I become president, when a bill hits my desk you will have 5 days to review it online before I sign it.”
• “If you don’t have insurance you’ll finally be able to afford it, and everyone will have the security and stability that’s missing today.”

Shinseki.”
• This president promised his trillion-dollar stimulus would “create or save” 3.5 million jobs by 2011.
• Instead, as confirmed even in the latest “higher-than-expected” 2.8% real GDP gain reported last week, Obama’s big spending is still weighing down the economy, 63 months into a “recovery” that is far and away the weakest since the Great Depression.

Ambassador to five Sunday TV shows to peddle the fiction that the Sept. 11, 2012, slaughter of our Libyan ambassador and three other Americans was directly caused by an amateur video defaming the Profit Muhammad.

He promised he would not let Syria cross a “red line” on chemical weapons, which he now knows beyond a doubt that they did, but he took no action.

The president promised to change the seedy, dishonest ways of Washington, but he makes Nixon look like a pillar of virtue by comparison.
