AP Blasts Obama Over Jobs Pitch: He‘s Creating His Own ’Reality’
WASHINGTON (AP) — In President Barack Obama’s sales pitch for his jobs bill, there are two versions of reality: The one in his speeches and the one actually unfolding in Washington.

When Obama accuses Republicans of standing in the way of his nearly $450 billion plan, he ignores the fact that his own party has struggled to unite behind the proposal.

When the president says Republicans haven’t explained what they oppose in the plan, he skips over the fact that Republicans who control the House actually have done that in detail.

He's been creating his own "reality" for many years. I suppose that he has the right to do that, but he has no right to subject the rest of us to his pipe dreams...

What they're talking about is probably as much a rhetorical device as anything - say it and too many people will believe it's true because he said it.

I think there's an interesting story to be done on what Obama's like when he's not on camera. I've read some frankly depressing stories about him, I don't know if they're legit or not but the glimpses we get of the off-teleprompter, out of the spotlight Obama would seem to back up the idea that he's way out of his depth and half off his rocker.

Considering that, up until his election to Senate, there is very little provable evidence of who he is... I would imagine that the stories that you have heard have some basis in truth. The president who promised the most transparency wears the thickest cloak... go figure.
