Obama is a liar; vote for Romney

Barack (Pinocchio) Obama is out of control. Economy experts said it will take between 10 to 15 years to dig out of the financial mess Obama has put us in (no it's not Bush's fault as Pinocchio claims). Plus, his moral character leaves something to be desired.

In his autobiography, he said he had a white girlfriend.

Conversely in an interview with a reporter, he said that his "girlfriend" was a composite of several different women in his life. Just another lie from the habitual liar. Hence the moniker, "Pinocchio."

This man-child is a seriously flawed character and is not qualified to lead this country that he hates.

He hates the American people too! In November, anyone who voted for Obama now has the opportunity to correct that mistake.

Don't be fooled twice, vote for my man, Mitt!
