"The fact that we are here today to debate raising America’s debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the U.S. Government can’t pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government’s reckless fiscal policies. … Increasing America’s debt weakens us domestically and internationally. Leadership means that ‘the buck stops here. Instead, Washington is shifting the burden of bad choices today onto the backs of our children and grandchildren. America has a debt problem and a failure of leadership. Americans deserve better."Amen to that last sentence.
In 2007 and 2008, then-Senator Obama didn't even both to vote on subsequent proposed debt ceiling increases. Of course, he did vote for TARP, which increased the debt limit by $700 billion.
What a two-faced lying hypocritical asshole...
