It was typical Obama, taking credit for what should be condemned. He's a fraud, a crime boss, a war criminal multiple times over, a moral coward, and serial liar. His State of the Union address was beginning-to-end doublespeak, duplicity, coverup, and denial of failed policies complicit with Wall Street crooks, war profiteers, and other corporate favorites while popular needs go begging.

Such observations reflect a particular underlying perspective: What 'people are told' must conform to 'what is correct', because most people cannot be trusted to think for themselves. It is an elitist perspective: We are the informed and educated class; the unwashed masses [Orwell's Proles] must be taught what to think and...
