Barack Hussein Obama on the Debt Limit, 16 March 2006


That was pretty bright of him in 2006.

It's time for a reillumination.

Somebody up there in the White House needs to act presidential and grab
the reins.

Yes, but Bernanke didn't pull his strings.

The reality is US DC government is kissing the banks ass. Perhaps
congress should fire Bernanke.

There is a reason why Bernake is being real quiet, he pulls all the
strings on Obama and the democrats.

Seems like paying your bills with real money is no longer the accepted
