President Obama visited Elkhart, Indiana on Wednesday and during a town hall meeting blamed “right-wing radio” for distorting his economic record and for making “people think big government is the problem.”
“I hope you don’t mind me being blunt about this,” the president said, “but I’ve been listening to this stuff for a while now and I’m concerned when I watch the direction of our politics.”
When Obama visited Elkhart seven years ago, the unemployment rate was near 20%. Now, he boasts that the rate has dropped to around 4% in the city and 5% across the state.

So what does Barry have against the VFW now?
Well, now right wing truth is a lie, and 4% and 5% unemployment is the truth.
Right, got it!
BTW, all the while we were saying unemployment was closer to 20%, his administration was arguing it wasn't over 7-8%. Why is he saying it was 20% now?
Because he was lying back then, and he's lying now.
His number on unemployment may have went from 20% to 4%, but the number of people of disability and other gov't assistance has gone up. Over 100 million people are now on some kind gov't assistance.
Amazing. This is the guy who incites race riots from the Oval Office.
What's really amazing is the number of people who believe what he says.
Most of the media is liberal. Pro government, and corporate controlled. What he fails to understand is that the working public in general is pissed!!!!!
The government isn't listening to the people, if fact they are ignoring us. They have sold us out through the "Free Trade" agreements, that are not free and have cost us jobs, tax revenue that could have been used to build up the economy, and infrastructure! I, for one will be glad when the Obama nightmare is over!!!! I just hope and pray that witch Hillary doesn't get elected!!!
Obama is a proven liar.
I never listen to conservative radio and I am convinced Big Government is our biggest problem.
Jan 20th right around the corner!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The reason they say unemployment is low like 5%is because when people give up looking for work the liberals don't count them anymore as being unemployed .But truth is they are still unemployed just not counted as such.
Ok Obama, you tell yourself whatever you need to so you can sleep at night. But not many people believe your lying rear.
