I've posted this excerpt from obama's speech about why he was voting against raising the debt limit in 2006 many times....not ONE leftie has responded.
Why?
He either lied or was fully ignorant.
He's a politician. No different than those who came before or will follow.
The party that holds the white house has to make a case for paying the bills and the other party gets to make a spectacle of it.
There's something creepy about politics being used to decide whether or not to pay the bills.
Yeah big deal. Things look different depending on which end of Pennsylvania Avenue your office is located. The fact is he was wrong in 2006. Playing politics with the debt ceiling is playing with fire and it needs to stop - right here, right now.

From Sen. Obama’s Floor Speech, March 20, 2006:
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.

The job of Pres. of the US is the hardest job in the world.
Yes it is. Now go back and review the job experience he had prior to being elected President of the United States.
Then go back and review his promises prior to being elected, his criticisms of the previous administration prior to being elected, some of his associations prior to being elected, some of his appointees after being elected.
And that, my friends, is why we are where we are right now. Politically. Racially. Financially. Morally. Internationally.
