Barack Obama Lies About Speech To Auto Makers
From the LA Times:
Sen. Barack Obama, the leading Democratic candidate for his party’s nomination, is very fond of telling receptive audiences the story about how last May he walked right into the automotive lion’s den of Detroit and told those industrialists they were going to have to shape up, change the way they do things and start making more fuel-efficient vehicles to protect our environment.
“And I have to say,” the straight-talking Obama tells his chuckling followers, “that when I delivered that speech, the room got really quiet. [Laughter] Nobody clapped.”
Well, in honor of Obama’s return campaign visit back to Michigan this week, someone—perhaps Republicans, perhaps someone closer to home politically—assembled videotape of Obama’s oft-told tale and spliced it side by side with videotape of that actual Detroit speech.
You’ll never guess what. The room wasn’t quiet at all.
Here’s the video:
Just another authentic moment courtesy of the campaign for hope and change.
