And "spreading the lies of this administration"? What in the world does that mean?

Remember what the theme of this thread is, as posted by villagegolfer. It's short. It said "Thanks Obama for running up the debt and lowering our credit rating."

I'm not defending Obama or this administration, but I am responding that the allegation which is the basis of this thread is not only inaccurate, but simply preposterous!
