We understand why many on the right would keep lying about the mess President Obama was greeted with on Jan 20, 2009. Embarassment, at what had happened under George W. Bush, for one reason.

This quick seven minute movie reminds you of the truth about what Mr. Obama - and Americans - really faced four years ago.
