Media Spins Obama As Deficit Hawk

The San Francisco Communist rag known as the Chronicle, as it's habit, spins our Dear Leader Obama as a tough deficit hawk opposed to cuts that impact the poor.

"President Barack Obama is pressing congressional leaders to accept a $4 trillion debt reduction deal that Republicans have rejected for its tax increases and Democrats dislike for its cuts to programs for seniors and the poor, administration officials said hours before talks resumed Sunday."

Of course, the democrat socialists are portrayed as trying to protect cuts "to programs for seniors and the poor." The spin does not stop there as the next three paragraphs are written from the perspective of Dear Leader and socialist-democrats:

"'He's not someone to walk away from a tough fight,' White House chief of staff William Daley said. 'Everyone agrees that a number around $4 trillion is the number that will ... make a serious dent in our deficit.' But embedded among the tough words was rhetoric that acknowledged the 'big deal's' prospects had become uncertain at best. 'We're going to try to get the biggest deal possible,' said Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner."

Yes, Obama is so tough and tenacious. He is going to fight for you, the common man and will not give up on a deal to save the Country. He is not one to "walk away from a tough fight" and of course "everyone agrees" that the "$4trillion is the number that will . . . make a serious dent in our deficit."

Thank god for our Dear Leader.
