Obama Threatened To Not Send Social Security Checks On August 3rd. CBS NEWS’ SCOTT PELLEY: “Canyou guarantee, as president, those checks will go out on August the third?” OBAMA: “I cannot guarantee thathose checks go out on August 3rd if we haven't resolved this issue. Because there may simply not be themoney in the coffers to do it.” (Scott Pelley, “Obama: No Guarantee For Social Security Checks,” CBS News, 7/12/11)

  Social Security’s Chief Actuary Says The Responsibility For Sending Out Social Security Check

Falls Entirely Upon Obama’s Treasury Department. REP. TIM HUELSKAMP (R-KS): “I wonder if you can explain to me how the checks would not go out on August 3rd, under what circumstances

would Social Security checks be withheld?” STEPHEN C. GOSS: “I wish I could give you a definitiveanswer to that. I think you would have to talk to people at Department of the Treasury, quite frankly… The responsibility of the Social Security Administration per se, my boss, Commissioner Astrue, is tin fact determine how much in the way of benefit payments people are supposed to receive. We sendthat information actually over to the Department of the Treasury. They are the ones who actuallysend out the payments, whether it’s electronic funds, transfers, or check .” (Committee On The Budget, U.S. House

Representatives, Hearing, 7/13/11)

WHY? OBAMA STORMED OFF FOR HIGHER TAXES

“Obama Wants $1 Trillion In Taxes On Top Of What He’s Already Signed.” “Obama wants $1 trillion intaxes on top of what he's already signed. … There are numerous other new taxes in the [health care] bill, all

adding up to some $438 billion in new revenue over 10 years. But even that is understated because by 2019the annual revenue increase is nearly $90 billion, or $900 billion in the 10 years after that. Yet Mr. Obamawants to add another $1 trillion in new taxes on top of this.” (Editorial, “Taxes Upon Taxes Upon…” The Wall Street Journal  ,
