On February 12, 2009, Obama, campainging for passage of his stimulus package said, "Yesterday, Jim, the head of Caterpillar said, 'If Congress passes our plan, this company will be able to rehire some of the folks who were just laid off.' and that's a story I am confident will be repeated at companies accross the country."

That same day, shortly after Obama's remarks, Caterpillar CEO, Jim Owens took the podium and said, "The honest reality is that we will probably have to have more lay-offs before we start hiring again."

On March 17, 2009, Caterpillar announced that it was cutting another 2,500 jobs.

Obama lied and the caterpillar died!
