Obama had the temerity to say this,
Yesterday in his weekly radio and Internet address, Obama said he is determined to "get exploding deficits under control" and said his budget request is "sober in its assessments, honest in its accounting, and lays out in detail my strategy for investing in what we need, cutting what we don't, and restoring fiscal discipline."
Reducing the deficit, he said, is critical: "We can't generate sustained growth without getting our deficits under control."
That would be the deficit you are responsible for, and are currently cheer-leading for, I suppose. The One is often criticized, quite rightly, for his inability to speak off the cuff. Without the Teleprompter he is incoherent. He surely cannot actually believe the stuff he is spouting, can he? Does he actually believe he is being fiscally disciplined? Or does he just blindly read what is put in front of him? Do we really have President Obama Burgundy in the White House?
Read the whole thing here, it's an Orwellian display of chutzpah.
