    So Obama says he is concerned with the amount of unsustainable debt facing students.
    Ironic isn't it?

    What about the amount of unsustainable debt he is signing off on our country?


    Quoting John Stossel

    Just a few years ago, when George W. Bush was president, the Congressional Record shows that Senator Obama said this: “I rise, today, to talk about America’s debt problem. The fact that we are here to debate raising America’s debt limit is a sign of leadership failure and our government’s reckless fiscal policies.”

    Right!
    Sen. Obama went on: “Over the past five years, our federal debt has increased from $3.5 trillion to $8.6 trillion -- and yes, I said trillion with a ‘T’!”
    Again, he was right to worry about the debt and right to call it “a hidden domestic enemy ... robbing our families and our children and seniors of the retirement and health security they’ve counted on. ... It took 42 presidents 224 years to run up only $1 trillion of foreign-held debt. This administration did more than that in just five years.”
    It’s hard to believe that Obama chose those words just seven years ago, because now his administration has racked up another $6 trillion in debt.
    It’s also a shock that Barack Obama believed this: “America has a debt problem. I therefore intend to oppose the effort to increase America's debt limit.”
    Yet this year, he demanded Congress raise the debt limit without conditions.


    My thoughts

    I can't understand how a father and an American (debatable) willingly enslaves the future generation with unsustainable debt. It's obvious that he wants to break our country and have the people asking for help from the government. What he doesn't understand is there is no free lunch in life and where much is given much is required. When will America wake up and instead of asking for a free lunch ask for the ability to be productive and feel good about doing something to better our country and it's inhabitants? The rewards and feelings of earning your own keep is something all Americans should desire to have.


    This is not a race issue it's a issue of integrity and self worth. Something which our country can't afford to lose.

      I think he is more of a puppet who has no clue to the damage he is doing. I know he incurred college debt and that's why it's personal to him to address that issue. However he is a father and just because his children will not directly be inflicted by his actions he is fine with burying ours. I don't think he is intelligent enough to understand the people who are pulling the strings are making a mockery of him.

          Bush was a disgrace and a criminal. We have been regressing ever since Reagan.
