Fact check: Obama’s press conference

[Casino67]

Daily Caller:

President Barack Obama had a lot to say about what the “American people” think about the budget impasse during his Friday press conference, but his statements weren’t always accurate.

During his morning presser, Obama said Americans agree with him on the budget deal, and that they believe in a tax hike and in the preservation of entitlement programs.

“The bottom line is that this is not an issue of salesmanship to the American people; the American people are sold,” Obama said. “The American people are sold.”

Just how sold are the American people?

Obama believes that polls indicate an overwhelming majority of Americans take his “bipartisan” position on the issue.
