The Heritage Foundation

By Neal Boortz

In a recent round of interview with local TV stations, Caesar Obammus refused to accept the premise that small businesses may be hurt by ObamaCare regulations.  Amidst his response, he came out with this line, “I know that there’s a perception sometimes that there’s all kinds of regulations coming out of Washington, the truth is actually we’ve seen fewer regulations coming out of my administration than the previous administration.”

Once again, this jerk (Yeah .. I called him a jerk.  There is no law which states that the president can’t be a jerk) isn’t telling the whole truth .. while it is true that his administration has put out fewer regulations, the cost of those regulations is astronomical compared to his predecessors, therefore causing more harm to our economy than a bunch of little regulations.  Here’s the truth from the Heritage Foundation …

"Some 10,215 new federal regulations from the Obama administration are costing consumers, businesses and the economy overall $46 billion annually, more than five times the regulatory price tag of former President Bush in his first three years in office. Worse: just implementing those regulations had a one-time additional cost of $11 billion, according to a Heritage Foundation analysis provided to Washington Secrets.  Ironically, Bush instituted more regulations, 10,674, but they cost just $8.1 billion annually, said the Heritage report, titled “Red Tape Rising: Obama and Regulation at the Three Year Mark.”"

The Obama administration is getting really good at cleverly spinning the numbers to their favor.  Unfortunately, most ObamaBots are too ignorant or lazy to see through his smokescreen.
