DID HE REALLY SAY THAT ?????

"Raising the debt ceiling does not authorize us to spend more".............

Barack Obama

Or course it does; that is why Obama wants the debt ceiling raised......so he can spend money we don't have...more spending, more spending, more spending.

In fact earlier on Obama makes the opposite arguement saying that if the debt ceiling isn't raised he will not be able to pay veteran benefits, SS benefits, and other spending !!!!!!!!!!!! What a lying phony !

He is banking that his "low information" voting base will stay stupid.

How about not paying for that slut Sandra Flukes birth control for starters, Or how about his own salary?

No no no........he'll go after veterans and old people first.

Most economists have stated if it isn't raised we will fall back into recession again.But WTF do they know compared to the wingers on this board.

Well; our choice is to have have a soft recession today; or maxing the debt out more and get swallowed by the big kahuna melt down...................

I prefer taking the medicine today.

Real spending cuts need to happen; our debt is so large we cannot grow out way out of the hole....the sooner the better....

Ya gotta love liberals; ever hoping to avoid the hard choices....god bless tiny tim.

His entire speech was nuts. Stating he will not negotiate is silly. He is not king he has no choice but to negotiate or hit the debt ceiling. This is not just about past spending other than interest payments it is about future spending. It is about spending commitments in the future that need to be changed and he is a big reason that has not occurred. If he does not pay Social Security, which has a trust fund with plenty of money, the military, or interest on the debt what is he going to spend incoming tax revenues on? How can he as the chief executive refuse to pay those things most important to the nation? His position is idiotic and his statements are skewing the facts to the point that they are lies.

raising the debt ceiling allows us to pay our bills ... defaulting on the debt our creditors covered would be a wise choice, and be wonderful for the economy ..

More proof that the Obama voter is just dumb (low information/low IQ)......

So your' boneheaded theory is to keep spending and spending; and keep raising the debt ceiling to allow more spending and spending ?

Actually, the expenditures have already been authorized by Congress.

Here's some actual information for you:

1. The money that will put us over the debt ceiling has already been appropriated by Congress. It wasn't appropriated by The President for Four More Years, you fool, the Constitution (that you are so keen on whipping out when it suite YOUR purposes) clearly states who passes appropriations.

2. Are you and your Teawipe masters really stupid enough to think that the Supreme Court will let Congress get by with this? Even Scalia and Thomas aren't that reckless. Keep in mind that they are, and always have been, members of the traditional Republican elite and they will not let the world economy blow up. They will move to protect their own. Guess what, dumbshit, YOU and the Teawipes aren't their own. Be prepared for a slapdown from the SCOTUS.

3. One other thing that may go the way of the wild goose in this is the recently Gerryymandered Congressional districts. Don't get all revolutionary if the SCOTUS slaps those recent redistrictings down. The realists will do whatever is necessary to geld the Teawipe stupidity, even if it has a computer redraw the districts strictly on population density instead of party voting record. There are already a couple of really nice algorhythms some states already use.

4. Talk to me about how much cutting you want to see in the Defense Department budget. Veterans' benefits, VA Hospitals, Haliburton/Brown&Root slush funds? Let's hear your real genius kick in here.

You Teawipe asswholes keep on pushing this foolishness. You will find out who still has the power - it ain't you.

An accomplished liar, Obama states that not raising tyhe debt ceiling would jeopardize social security payments.
I know that this is a lie because the Social Security has a couple of trillion dollars in surplus according to WTF and others.
So if we have all this reserve that we can draw for to cover the SS checks, what is the big deal and why would he lie about that?:

SS surplus is in IOU'S where the idiots in Washington raided it to balance their budgets.

clank, clank, clank, clank................the sound of the can still being kicked down the road.
