Four times Obama repeated the conclusion of an independent analysis by the nonpartisan Tax Policy Center that those cuts would cost approximately $5 trillion. Romney, in response, claimed “I don’t have a $5 trillion tax cut. I don’t have a tax cut of a scale that you’re talking about.”
Back out on the campaign trail obama never the less repeated the same old rhetoric that Romney was going to give the rich a 5 trillion dollar tax cut, so CNN and FactCheck.org chimed in.
Obama accused Romney of proposing a $5 trillion tax cut. Not true,” FactCheck.org said. Obama accused Romney of proposing a $5 trillion tax cut. Not true. Romney proposes to offset his rate cuts and promises he won’t add to the deficit. http://factcheck.org/2012/10/dubious-denver-debate-declarations/
CNN’s John Berman reached a similar conclusion last night.
“Romney said he would offset that by closing loopholes and reducing reductions,” he said. “So if you take him at his word, our verdict [on Obama's claim] that Mitt Romney would cut taxes on the wealthy by $5 trillion, the verdict is false.”

yeah but will CNN (or msnbc or abc or cbs or pbs or the ny times) FACT Check this NEW Jobs Report that was manufactured out of the inaccurate Household Survey?
People ‘saying’ that they might be going to work part time over the holidays and “I opened a Lemonade stand” don’t count as full-time jobs. Also when you say you hired your children (to work at your fictional Lemonade stand) that doesn’t make the real unemployment numbers which are over 15% instantly drop to 7.8%.
This NEW Jobs Report is nothing but a LIE. Its a last chance desperate effort by a COMMUNIST to save his COMMUNIST ass and COMMUNIST plans for the USA.

one more thing…
There is FACTUAL DATA that can be used.
For instance:
1) number of Hours reported to the Dept. of Labor and Industries,
2) hours reported and money contributed to Social Security and
3) hours reported and money paid in to Unemployment Insurance
but if Obama’s people had used REAL FACTUAL DATA that could be used in a court of Law (to sue an employer who cheated you) then the real Obama would look even worse than he does already.
I had to go after an employer or two over the years. When they don’t pay in to the IRS properly or report hours to L&I (to save money) its very very very very simple to prove. Anyone can get a printout of their work history and reported working hours. These same agencies have TOTALS of all their data going back a decade!
Anyone can obtain this information. Why doesn’t Obama or the Liberal News Mafia use something credible?
