Obama Calling "Bluff" Of Those Complaining About Debt He Created
RealClearPolitics ^ | June 27, 2010 | RealClearPolitics

President Obama on controlling the debt: "Somehow people say, why are you doing that, I'm not sure that's good politics. I'm doing it because I said I was going to do it and I think it's the right thing to do. People should learn that lesson about me because next year when I start presenting some very difficult choices to the country, I hope some of these folks who are hollering about deficits and debt step-up because I'm calling their bluff. We'll see how much of that, how much of the political arguments that they're making right now are real and how much of it was just politics."

That silly Kenyan bastard is living in a dream world, he doesn’t have the slightest idea of what he’s babbling about.

That is why November is the game changer! We must take back the House and Senate to stop this clown and his circus.

None of it’s bluff, Mr. President. While you’re concerned about your ivory tower, we still care about the country you’d like to sink.

If it weren't for strawmen, I'm not sure what this fool would talk about. Also, it's not good policy, but leave it to Ears to bring up politics first.

BO) cited PAYGO and this years budget
when asked a question about medium and short term deficit reduction...

BUT
all the unemployment bills signed have been “emergency” (NO PAYGO)
and the Dems just announced they aren’t going to pass a budget this year.

Barack is divorced from any other facts and reality happening around him,
including Congress. He acts like he is his own world. A makebelieve world.
We need to enact the incapacitation clause soon.

I guess what he wants to do is tax all the money out of circulation and have you apply to the government for subsistence .....

Obama, just stop giving my money to people who didn't earn it. Problem solved. Communism sucks. It always goes bankrupt.
