QUOTE FROM BARACK OBAMA VOTING AGAINST RAISING THE DEBT LIMIT – MARCH 2006

A Great Quote.

“The fact that we are here today to debate  raising America’s debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the US Government can not pay its  own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on  ongoing  financial assistance from foreign countries to  finance our Government’s reckless fiscal policies.  Increasing America’s debt weakens us domestically  and  internationally. Leadership means that ‘the buck  stops here.’ Instead, Washington is shifting the burden of  bad  choices today onto the backs of our children and grandchildren. America has a debt problem and a failure of  leadership.

Americans  deserve  better.”

SENATOR BARACK H. OBAMA, MARCH  2006
