Robert Gibbs getting questioned about the president's former opposition to raising the debt series.
“The fact that we are here today to debate raising America’s debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. 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. I therefore intend to oppose the effort to increase America’s debt limit.” - Sen. Barack Obama on March 16, 2006.

I’m for against raising it. There can I be president now?
We should NOT raise the debt limit for the exact reason Obummer made when he voted no as a Senator. Along other lines, Gingrich has the right idea regarding state and local taxes - NO GOVERNMENT BAILOUTS. Let them go bankrupt and then, just maybe, a$$hole politicos won’t pass legislation that they can’t pay for. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH@#%%#$@ it!
Sorry, I didn’t mean state and local TAXES, I meant their budgets, etc.
Put that back and get away from the memory hole.
Did anyone REALLY expect anything different? The Washington mafia prevails everytime!
