Hard pressed to repeat his bravura performance as "Liar of the Year," Barack Obama is reaching out in all directions!
Allow me to nominate this attempt as a worthy entry in the contest:
"Obama: income inequality is 'defining challenge of our time'" Obama: income inequality is 'defining challenge of our time' ? live | World news | theguardian.com
If proof be needed that the feckless windbag is once again a shoo-in for the award, peruse the following:
1. " How Did The Democrats Become The Party Of The Rich?
2. .... the RooseveltsTeddy or Franklinfrom the grave, the most astonishing thing they would find is that the malefactors of great wealth have become the benefactors of todays liberalism, and Democrats have become the party of the rich.
3. ... todays rich love Barack Obamaso much so that Washington D.C. area airports ran out of space to handle all of the private jets flying in the well-heeled for both of his inaugurals.
4. .... it is the super rich of Silicon Valley and Wall Street, combined with the super rich of Hollywood, who command the priority attention of Democratic Party leaders these days.
5. Of the ten richest zip codes in the U.S. eight gave more money to Democrats than Republicans....
6. .... Obama doesnt go to union halls to host fundraisers; he goes to posh Wall Street townhomes, the Hollywood hills, or to Tom Steyers house in Pacific Heights. Steyer, a billionaire investor and wannabe George Soros, is the perfect model of todays rich liberal, and shows where the balance of power on the Left rests today. Organized labor wants the Keystone pipeline built; Steyer, who imbibes deeply the green Kool Aid, is adamantly against Keystone.
Note who Obama is siding with.
7. Yes, but havent many of the leading plutocrats... embraced higher income taxes? Yes, they have, but ... higher income tax rates will not touch the bulk of the fortunes of todays plutocrats, for the simple reason that the great bulk of the accumulated wealth of Gates, Buffett, Silicon Valley and Wall Street consists of appreciated asset valuesnot ordinary income.
8. The dependenceif not slavishnessof Democrats on the new super rich is best revealed by the dog that isnt barking in the current liberal crusade against economic inequality: where is the call for a straight up wealth tax?"

"....the current liberal crusade against economic inequality: where is the call for a straight up wealth tax?"
Did you understand that?
Where is Obama's plan to 'level the field' by taxing the assets of those folks....??
After all: "income inequality is 'defining challenge of our time'"
Did I make my case????
In fact...I move that "Liar of the Year" awards should, henceforth, be named the "Obamas"
