That's a little different though. At the time, Bush was out of control spending money on a war he started in Iraq. Why should we raise the debt ceiling just so we can spend even more money over there?Dem's don't want to cut back on government period.
That's it exactly. The Dems think the only problem is political and the GOP is simply ginning this up for gain. They can't understand why the GOP wont just roll over and increase the debt limit, like every time before. If there is a problem, the Democratic solution is to raise taxes so they can put in even more social programs and wasteful crap.
What's really funny is how Obama himself was dead set against raising the debt limit in '06 when Bush was President.
"The fact that we are here today to debate raising Americas debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the U.S. Government cant pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Governments reckless fiscal policies." - Barack Obama, 2006
For once Mr. President, I completley agree with you. The fact that we are here today $14 trillion in debt and you are requesting to raise the debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. Nobody better represents failure more than you do Barack Hussein.
Obama is doing his best to try to get out of those stupid wars which is the real money spender and actually trying to help the people of this country. Besides, we wouldn't even need to raise the debt ceiling if taxes were where they should be.
