BREAKING: Obama Admits He Was Wrong...

Obama regrets vote against raising debt limit

"WASHINGTON – The White House says President Barack Obama regrets his vote as a senator in 2006 against raising the debt limit.

A fight over raising the debt limit is looming, and the White House is trying to explain away the apparent contradiction between Obama's previous opposition, and his position now that it must be increased.

Press Secretary Jay Carney said Monday that Obama believes his vote was a mistake. He said Obama now realizes that the debt ceiling is too important to be trifled with.

Republicans are threatening to withhold their votes to raise the ceiling unless Obama agrees to major spending reductions.

A failure to raise the debt limit would mean the government would not be able to make debt payments, leading to an unprecedented default on the national debt."

Here is what the man said about his no vote on raising the debt limit:

March 20, 2006:
“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 U.S. Government can't 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.”
Dear Lord, We come before you and humbly ask you to grant our prayer for a veil of protection to be placed over Donald Trump. May your will be done. In Jesus name we pray. Amen

WOW! Rand Paul should recite the same speech while casting a no-vote...

Speaking of the Oprah

Source: Oprah Winfrey Will Not Endorse Obama in 2012
Fox ^ | 08 Apr 201

(NewsCore) - Oprah Winfrey, the queen of daytime television, will not be publicly endorsing President Barack Obama for re-election in 2012.

Back in 2008, the billionaire talk show host endorsed then-Senator Barack Obama -- the first time she had publicly taken sides in a US presidential election.

"For 2012, much has changed for Oprah," the source told Pop Eater. "She now has her own cable channel called OWN that has been struggling to find an audience -- she isn't going to do anything to alienate them."

Psst... Chizz... you can identify with the stated principles of the Tea Party without actually being a 'member'. Lots of people get this confused when I defend some of the Tea Party's platform.

Take away the nutjobs, and the Tea Party has already served its purpose, even if it goes away tomorrow.

the problems the tea party has with image is fostered by the message from the liberals that is carried to every corner of the land by the corrupt, left leaning major media outlets.

The left is as racists as it can be, full of hate and vitriol for anything they dont believe in or anybody that doesnt agree with them. Its disgusting.

Listen to what DNC INTERIM CHAIR DONNA BRAZILE has to say about "the whites". That is one racist negro liberal mama that feels "The majority of Whites" dont support the dems because "Those People" are taking our money.

How about Mica the blonde racists on Morning Joe:

WE‘LL HAVE ’CLASS WARFARE ON ITS WORST LEVELS‘ IF RICH WHITE MEN DON’T CONTRIBUTE MORE

There is something seriously wrong with the way these people think and what they think government is for.

Nice try JBB...
But the Tea Party's biggest problem is itself - and nobody else

Oh and please note:
Jonathon M. Seidl the guy who writes the articles you are using as source material...
He also wrote an article on how Glenn Beck would make a great President :rofl: so you might want to pay close attention to that guy... he's completely insane
