Ya think? Well, I guess I should look at the bright side--maybe this means he's not going to pour trillions more of our dollars down the rathole.
I'm glad he acknowledges the problems a large public debt creates for the private economy. Now, what's he going to do about it? (Answer: nothing. He's giving lip service to financial responsibility so that the Chinese will keep buying our bonds.)
Actually, I'd be willing to bet he's laying the groundwork for a big cut in defense spending. Deficit reduction, ya know.
Yep. Got to cut and run from Afghanistan. Too expensive don't you know and just not worth it anymore......
no no no Bad girl!! We still need Obamacare. We will just cut back on services and ration things like mammograms. You don't need those until you're fifty. On a serious note: That is why they are doing the whole breast thing. Getting the public conditioned to being told no on medical services.
Given that he's under the illusion we are in "recovery" I'd have a hardtime believing whatever else he professes to think.
That is like someone setting down and eating 2 dozen krispy kreams while all the time saying they need to diet. The man who has added more to the debt in such a short time than any man in history is telling us, the tax payers, that we need to reduce the national debt. What pathetic arrogance.
See, we've been handling this all wrong. What we should be doing is telling the Democrats and poor people that the Moon is made of Gubmint cheese and we're just trying to go get it. They'll build that space elevator so fast it'll make your head swim.
Unlikely, at least for a while. The first few months were all about making it "his" war. He can't back off that too quickly. Far more likely, this is a prelude to a tax hike. There wasn't a word about curbing spending, just deficits.
I'll have to find the link for this, but apparently the government is taking donations to ease off the debt... *Eyes Hollywood*
This lays the ground work for the Obama Admin. to propose: 1) Massive tax increases on anyone making more than $200,000 a year. 2) Massive defense budget cuts. All the while increasing domestic spending.
Tell the Obamessiah we need the space elevator to reach the moon so the illegal *aliens* can vote and just see what happens.
