(Politico) During President Obama’s interview with Jay Leno on Tuesday, Obama claimed, “The unemployment rate has been ticking down and housing is improving. We’ve seen the deficit cut in half…So there are a lot of good trends.”

Huh?

On the 02 August I wrote here that just 953,000 jobs have been created in 2013 of those 731,000 are part-time–Likewise personal income has dropped 5.3% during the first quarter of this year–Is this what President Obama touting as a great success of his economic policies?

What about record poverty levels, Hispanic unemployment rate of 9% and youth unemployment over 16% which President Obama conveniently failed to address again when cheering what he sees as “good trends” during his watch.

One in every 324 of all U.S. housing units received a foreclosure filing in the 2nd Qtr 2013 according to Business Insider and in California lenders filed 25,747 notices of default between April and June which was up 38.7% from the previous quarter–just a couple of facts that must have just slipped Obama’s mind?

As for the federal budget deficit which President Obama claims has been cut in half, once again the facts just don’t resemble what the president says.

Before the financial panic of 2008 Hot Air points out, the federal govt was spending about $1 Trillion less–about $2.7 Trillion annually.

During Obama’s Watch, federal debt has doubled according to the Office of Management & Budget which reports that President Obama will become the first president ever to break the $4 Trillion spending level in a single year and debt held by the public as a share of the economy will continue to climb to what the Obama Administration forecasts in 2014 will hit 78.2% of GDP despite the superfluous claims made yesterday during President Obama’s 6th appearance on “The Tonight Show” with Jay Leno.

(White House Dossier) President Obama continues to say nothing to a jittery nation about what some who have been briefed on the potential Islam Jihad Terrorist attacks on the United States, declining to either offer reassurance or an explanation of the perils the nation faces.

Certainly President Obama doesn’t want to take questions about the threat he had minimized during the 2012 campaign when he claimed “Al-Qaeda has been decimated, Osama bin-Laden is dead.

Incredibly, the first question President Obama may take on the situation may come from “The Tonight Show’s” Jay Leno where he’s scheduled to appear this afternoon at 4:30 pm–earlier today, Obama’s in Phoenix for yet another campaign-style appearance at Desert Vista High School to pitch mortgage reform during his latest stop of his so called economic tour.

In related news, Los Angeles drivers are bracing for ‘Obamajam’ today as Obama Heads to Burbank this afternoon–Air Force One is scheduled to land at LAX at 3:30 pm for Obama’s latest trip to California, which is very expensive to taxpayers.

It costs $179,750 to operate Air Force One per hour which excludes additional aircraft and labor costs associated with each presidential trip but its not Obama’s money.

How many weeks worth of  White Hours tours could be funded if President Obama just stayed home and did his appearance with Jay Leno from the Oval Office?
