Who said this?
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.
Couldn’t agree more!! So who said this?
Sarah Palin? Nope.
John Boehner? Nope.

Obama could've been a great president, if he'd served in any of his previous offices – especially the senate seat- instead of immediately running for the next one.

Yeah, but there's no evidence that he actually believed what he said.

Who wrote it and put it on the teleprompter for him? That's the person who should get credit for he quote. Chances are whoever it was didn't work for the mighty O very long.
