Obama Slow Talks Joseph Goebbels Big Lie To Deny His  Egregious Spending Record

It is hard not to conclude that Obama has been studying the Joseph Goebbels playbook, per the following 3
quotes from the Nazi propaganda chief:

1) “Think of the press as a great keyboard on which the government can play.”

2) “If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”

3) “The most brilliant propagandist technique will yield no success unless one fundamental principle is borne in mind constantly - it must confine itself to a few points and repeat them over and over”

These tactics, however, will only work if the state has complete control over all media, which so far is not yet the case  in America. Hence Obama's employement of the Big Lie tactic on his spending was doomed from the outset, because it was bound to be almost instantaneously exposed as fraudulent, biased, and a preposterous lie, albeit a big lie. So why would Obama proceed on such a bankrupt, doomed to failure, course? The answer is - desparation. He knows that on the present course he will lose to Romney, and lose big, and so he is throwing everything he can, cow-pies, vampires, contraceptives, Bain capital, women, Cherokee indians, and lies, lies, lies, into the mix. Hoping against hope that it will work out.

So let us examine the spending record of Obama as compared to previous administration. It is lead-pipe cinch obvious that Obama's spending exceeds all previous Presidents, as shown in the above chart. The chart is simply the annual federal spending, adjusted for inflation, based on info from the White House Office of Management and Budget.

Obama's claim of being a low spender was based on the now-infamous and discredited MarketWatch analysis.

What the chart shows is this: Obama took advantage of a big surge in spending in 2009 and made it a permanent spending floor rather than a ceiling. Notice, in 2017—eight years after the official end of the Great Recession—spending continues to be elevated.

 Until Barack Obama took office in 2009, the United States had never spent more than 23.5% of GDP, with the exception of

the World War II years of 1942-1946. Here’s the Obama spending record:

    – 25.2% of GDP in 2009

    – 24.1% of GDP in 2010

    – 24.1% of GDP in 2011

    – 24.3% (estimates by the White House ) in 2012

    What’s more, if Obama wins another term, spending—according to his own budget—would never drop below 22.3% of GDP. If that forecast is right, spending during Obama’s eight years in office would average 23.6% of GDP. That’s higher than any single previous non-war year.
