I don't think Obama knows what Myths mean. I would call it Obama 's spin on the economy. For instance, Obama has a lot of nerve to brag about how he cut the deficit.  The reality is, Obama started his terms out with a huge stimulus package to help create by far the largest deficits ever.  As that stimulus faded, those massive deficits faded.   To call that reducing the deficit is very disingenuous and is quite the opposite of myth busting.

At 4:00 where he's talking about health insurance costs in Indiana..... what? This says premiums have gone up 72% in Indy alone.

By now, you might have heard that the Indianapolis Department Of Insurance projected a 72% increase in individual health insurance market for Indianapolis.

And yet the conservatives all complained about Obama's massive deficits.   Go figure.

They still are massive.  They have come down from obscenely massive.  Nothing to brag about.

Sure, nothing to brag about.  But back to the part where the conservatives blamed Obama for the deficits ...

seriously, guy went to law school and his real world experience is "social worker/community organizer"

I've forgotten more about economics than he'll ever begin to understand...so annoying.

You've probably discovered more about economics than he'll ever begin to understand.

You act like Obama had no role.  Of course he did.  And so did every Senator and Congressman.  Only a handful give a rats ### about the deficit.
