"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 US Government cannot 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."
~ Senator Barack H. Obama, March 2006

Excellent. We need to keep bringing forth all the quotes of this man when he did absolutely nothing but undermine the Bush administration. Are the dems really that stupid to believe no one will have access to their previous posturings?
Someone here came up with a similar quote by Harry Reid a couple of weeks ago and I suggested everyone copy and paste it in an email to Reid. I did and I hope others did.
This deserves the same treatment.
