“Reckless Fiscal Policies”
Why did Obama only enumerate George W. Bush’s big spending as responsible for the out-of-control $14 trillion-plus debt, while not mentioning his own contribution of $5 trillion? Why is there a debt limit standoff now, rather than, say, in 2009 or 2010? Why did this latest $1.6 trillion Obama budget prompt the current crisis? Why did not Obama earlier start debt limit talks the moment that his own hand-picked Simpson-Bowles commission presented their findings? Why did Obama just recently submit, and have rejected, a budget that would have scheduled even larger deficits of the sort he is now warning against (“Armageddon”)?
Why is voting against the debt limit reckless now, but in 2006 Obama lectured us thusly:
“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 U.S. Government can’t 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.”

Victor Davis Hanson hates black people in positions of power.
Charles Krauthammer on Friday marvelously demonstrated just how in the pockets of Barack Obama America's news media are.
From our FRiends at Newsbusters:
I would like to see your evidence to back up the statement you made. Please post it so we will all see this information.
i guess the title contains an implicit barf alert.
Because Obama's news media says so. Remember, this is the same media that told people how to feel about Casey Anthony.
I'm so glad that I don't have TeeVee, so I can Hate on the O without some media talking head telling me that I'm "a racist" and trying to make me feel bad about knowing that Obama is an incompetent, ignorant, posturing fop & demagogue...
It's posted in any dictionary. Read the entries for the words "sarcasm" and "irony".
Hee-hee - I see I am really slow on the uptake today. Sadly, so often the race card is played, it is easy to get one’s hackles up too quickly. I do apologize to the earlier poster I questioned. I am really sorry I was dopey about this and a big thanks to Fresh Wind to pointed it out.
Aside from being an affirmative action hire, Obama is a pro-moslem stalking horse.
Hey, even though he MAY be an Affirmative Action case, at least he's smarter than that dumb Sarah Palin.
Just compare their college transcripts.
Oh, wait...
I guess we know that Palin got better grades than the lying, corrupt Affirmative Action demagogue, because he's hiding his grades so people won't know what a fracking retard and imbecile he is...
He’s a Marxist, an economic imbecile (redundant), and an emotionally stunted permanent adolescent with dubious gender identification.
But other than that ...
BTW - VDH is one of the good guys, and has been for a long time.
