LOL, he wasn't in favor of the Tea Party approved cap on debt limit increases. Obama is merely trying to show the illusion that he can play all sides simultaneously. Epic FAIL. Obama's fault.

And what about your little slice of government pork, Summers?

Remembe when you boasted that it was federal dollars funding the university work which were the basis for your doctorate studies?

Did your entitlement survive?

Obama wasn't for cut cap and balance because it didn't cut enough.

Market tanked because of the economic news - manufacturing, DOWN, consumer spending, DOWN.

Not to mention the fact the GOP wanted even more cuts, dems refused and we will STILL likely be downgraded because of the dems intransigence.

sorry, $1.5 trillion of those "cuts" were in the phantom category.

I found a job in less than 48 hours because I didn't want to count on that "entitlement" (niche field and really hard to find candidates). Now that we still have it if we want, the pay is much better in the private sector.
