Snip
Obama pay freeze for federal workers dishonest; 1.1 million still get pay raises. Just this past week, Obama, the "One" himself, announced a supposed
pay freeze on federal employees with the lip service that it would (at least symbolically) go toward the long, arduous process of cutting federal
spending and bringing down the record-shattering deficits he created. However, as with all things in Obamaland, deception is afoot much of the time!
According to analysis on the subject, for the next two years that Obama claimed federal workers will have their pay "frozen," a whopping $2.5 billion
will still be spent on pay raises for those very federal employees.
As usual with Obama and his fraud-prone administration, what he says is never what it appears to be, and you have to always double-check him when he
starts…you know…opening his mouth. The trickery in Obama’s fraudulent claim about a two-year pay freeze for federal employees lies in the
all-important distinction between cost-of-living adjustments and step increases for federal employees, which happen on a constant basis.

No surprise that he lied....but it's a glaring, specific example of the President deliberately misleading the people through a play on words.
Politicians who are caught deliberately lying to the people should be stripped of their position immediately, imo.
