Even in 2006, then Senator, Barack Obama voted against raising the debt ceiling stating, 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.

everything has changed because Obama was betting on the Chicago Bears to win the Super Bowl. But the Packers won and now he needs some cash to pay off his bookey.

We all know what’s going on. He gets a pass on his monumental hyprocracy because he’s the first affirmative action president.

Can’t you post your entire article? I would like to read it if you will post it
To: paulycy
Unfortunately the article doesn’t give the date in 2006.
Maybe a Freeper that knows how to search the Cong Record can chime in.

You'll have to find the money for all the billboards... ;0)

Further proof he’s a lying scumbag charlatan son of a bitch. People like that usually wind up going off the rails, being habitually disconnected with reality.

0bama made that statement when the National Debt was only about 60% of GDP. During his first month as President, 0bama raised the public debt limit from $11.3 trillion to $12.1 trillion. Later that same year, he again raised it to $12.4 trillion. A couple months later on Feb 12, 2010, President 0bama signed a law raising the public debt limit from $12.4 trillion to $14.3 trillion! Now that
the National Debt is nearly 100% of GDP and we have already reached the limit, 0bama is now asking to raise the debt ceiling again?
