Three Obama Adminstration Sequester Claims That Were Not Backed By Evidence
The President Incorrectly Said Capitol Janitors Would Get A Pay Cut:
” At a press conference Friday, President Obama said “all the folks who are cleaning the floors at the Capitol — now that Congress has left, somebody is going to be vacuuming and cleaning those floors and throwing out the garbage — they’re going to have less pay.” He continued adding “the janitors, the security guards, they just got a pay cut, and they’ve got to figure out how to manage that. That’s real.”
But after the President spoke, Carlos Elias, the superintendent of the U.S. Capitol building and the Capitol Visitors Center, was forced to email his employees to tell them it was not true, according to CBS News.
“The pay and benefits of EACH of our employees WILL NOT be impacted,” he wrote to Capitol staffers. “I request that you please notify all of our employees about the importance of ignoring media reports.” “

The more I hear about King Barack Hussein, regarding spending cuts, something keeps coming to mind from out of the past.
I keep thinking that there is no difference of what Obama is doing and the hostage scenes:
“I want a fueled jet on the runway; Fifty Million in small bills; Or the hostages get it, one at a time.”
Threats , lies and blackmail seem to be his stock in trade . It’s the Chicago way on the National Stage . Very unbecoming …
