September 10, 2009 (LPAC)-- After President Barack Obama's address Wednesday evening to the joint session of the U.S. Congress, in which Obama stated that if you misrepresent what's in my plan, we will call you out, Lyndon LaRouche personally called out the President. LaRouche said: "The President is a liar. He has to to stop lying about health care."

In response to the President's claim that the health care problem is the deficit problem, LaRouche said: "Our problem is our President's mental deficit problem. His mental deficiency is our health care problem. I can re-educate the President, but I hope it doesn't require some misadvised people resorting to torture. I don't believe in torturing our President."

In response to Obama's claim that his plan does not call for a panel of bureaucrats to kill off senior citizens, followed by his call for an independent commission whose cost-cutting will, in fact, kill off senior citizens among others, LaRouche said: "President Obama is lying. He does intend to kill our citizens, whether he knows it or not. He lied before Congress. He may not know it, but that is what he is proposing. It is time to tell the ugly truth. The President is a liar. He doesn't really know what he is saying. He does not say it with malice, because he's stupid. Don't blame him for his lies. He's stupid. He doesn't know what he is doing.

"I am trying to protect him from his own stupidity. I ask for your help in doing so. The poor man doesn't know what he is saying. Forgive him. He doesn't know what he is saying. He is only a poor idiot."

In response to Obama's insistence that he will not back down, LaRouche said: "Obama should back down or he might be hung. He needs to give up. You've lost, Mr. President. You are a failure. I will try to bail you out. But you are a phony and a failure. You have got to listen to reason. You are making stupid statements. You are a damn fool. You need to listen to people who are smarter than you. Face it. You are a terrible failure. I am trying to save you, Mr. Failure."

LaRouche concluded: "Obama is calling for Hitler's program even as he says he is not for Hitler's program. But he is for Hitler's program."
