In his first speech to a joint session of Congress, delivered on Feb. 24, 2009--a little more than a month after his inauguration--President Barack Obama warned that we have a "responsibility" not to pass on to our children a federal debt they cannot pay.
"There is, of course, another responsibility we have to our children," Obama said in that speech. "And that's the responsibility to ensure that we do not pass on to them a debt they cannot pay. That is critical."
At this point, a chuckling Obama paused to accept a standing ovation from the chamber. Then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who was sitting behind the podium, was one of the first to stand and applaud. ...

If the mainstream media was treating Obama like a GOP president, this would be replaying on the networks nonstop.
Obama was just the front man for the biggest heist the world has ever seen.
Thank you do much Obama.
A hole.
GRRRRREAT post. Thanks.

Socialism Is Legal Plunder - Bastiat
DEPOPULATE socialists/totalitarians from the body politic. DEFUND/DOWNSIZE/DISMANTLE their collectives, foreign and domestic.
It’s easy to
live - free - republic
Of course not, A*****E!
So why did you do it?
You thought nobody would notice?
Some Legacy!
Obama’s Ministry of Truth:
war is peace
freedom is slavery
ignorance is strength
spending is saving
YOU ALREADY HAVE, DOOFUS!
I hope at the end of all this, both Obama and Hillary end up in prison for what they have done to our country.
Obama passed up Carter as the worst president of my lifetime (thus far).
He’s Jimmy Carter with ill intentions for our country. He, and his liberal buddies, view the United States as invader, racist, capitalist, globe destroying hicks. 20 trillion in debt and a weak military obsessed with homosexual and womyn ‘rights’ is the Obama legacy.
We have to reverse the damage. 20% across the board cuts in all departments - new hires out first. Undo all Obama has done and de-fund the U.N. so he can’t do more damage there.
Best we can hope for is Obama moves back to a Muslim country.
Well, he did. I don’t think he cares about “our children”. He’s got his. In a year, his huge debt won’t be his problem anymore. It will be tied on the backs of our children, our grandchildren and their grandchildren.
...and who has wielded the veto pen the last 7 years? This man is delusional.
This tradition should have ended when Bush took over from Clinton due to the rampant criminality selling of nuclear and military secrets to Red China.
The Obama Administration has surpassed the Clinton Administration in corruption and criminality and has arguably has engaged in acts of overt treason - and then obstructed justice to avoid prosecution
It will be up to the next Administration to bring the Obamas to justice
It would be nice to think we’d have someone more patriotic than the Bushs to make the corrupt pay a penalty or two.
So far it’s turned out they just protect each other.
I guess his plan was to crush our economy into a black hole of default.
Thus, our children won’t have to pay a dime.
But they will have to pay the price.
What #4 said!!!
Well put; to maintain the illusion that socialism is viable, he has bankrupted this country for the foreseeable future.
+ infinity
But he ran on the slogan "Yes We Can".
If you read the whole text of the 2009 State of the Union address and negate every concept, every plan, the agenda of the Muslim Marxists is plain as day.
