Right-wing media furious Obama "mock[ed]" tea partiers by correctly pointing out he lowered taxes
The right-wing media has attacked President Obama for "mocking average citizens"after he said "you'd think [the tea partiers] would be saying thank you," because he has lowered taxes. Indeed, absent from the right-wing media's outrage is the fact that Obama is correct; as the AP wrote, "[y]ou wouldn't know it by the Tax Day rhetoric, but Americans are paying lower taxes this year."
This would be the same media that helped sell Bush's lies to the public.
