Sunday’s Obama Says: C’Mon Baby!

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 US Government cannot 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.”

— Senator Barack Hussein Obama, March 2006

  1. If the electorate would be objective, Obama couldn’t possibly get re-elected.

    However, as I’ve said many times, the way that people vote often has nothing to do with facts or political platform. We are living in the Age of Perceptions, the Age of the Cult of Personality — not the Age of Reality.

    I know several people who voted for Obama in 2008, and they’re already declared that they’ll vote for Obama in 2012. Of course, all these people I know are still gainfully employed; they haven’t felt the pain, nor have they sacrificed.

    Furthermore, the race issue again comes into play in 2012. Sure, many will give Obama “a second chance” just because he is black.
