The idea that in the middle of an anemic recovery from the Great Recession that we're going to make the debt issue #1 just boggles the mind. Boggles.
But then again, these people don't really care about the "debt," it's merely the trojan horse.

Excellent point: we go back into recession, guess what begins to explode again? Why, the debt.
See how ass-backwards this all is?
But then again, that is ultimately the point: to drive the country back into the ground.

I'm confused because I just went to Politifact and I find no instances of them rating anything Obama said "false" or worse "Pants on Fire."
Half-true, sure.
WTH?

Half-truths are the norm now in Washington. It's like every politician took a class on it back in High School and College.
