Debt Ceiling Quotes from Obama

During the debate to raise the debt ceiling in 2006, then-senator Barack Obama had this to say:  “The fact that we are here today to debate raising America's debt limit is a sign of leadership failure... 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.”
He subsequently voted against raising the ceiling. As president, however, Obama has called opposing a rise in the debt ceiling as dangerous.

A 'present' from Barack

If the "Tea Party causus" can't bring themselves to vote for any increase in the debt limit, then they should just rip a page out of Obama's book.  Can you imagine if EVERY Republican voted "present" on increasing the limit?  The Dimcocrats would own the whole thing, and nothing would make it clearer why we need to put the GOP in charge of government.
