."But we can't simply cut our way to prosperity."
.
President Barack Obama said Saturday he remained committed to working with Congress to find a solution to the government's debt problem, but the focus could not only be on spending cuts.
.
Obama's comments come as the president prepared to meet separately with Senate Democratic and Republican leaders Monday to attempt to revive negotiations that collapsed Thursday when Republicans walked out over Democrats' demands for tax hikes.
.
"Of course, there's been a real debate about where to invest and where to cut, and I'm committed to working with members of both parties to cut our deficits and debt," Obama said in his weekly radio address. "But we can't simply cut our way to prosperity," he added.
Obama said the nation still needed to invest in education, infrastructure and developing new technologies to grow the U.S. economy.
.
If he 'invests' in the economy, where does he get the money? He keeps saying this crap, but it hasn't worked. And by definition, repeating the same thing over and over, and expecting a different outcome, is INSANITY.
And the concept that SLOWING spending is NOT a good way to slow your indebtedness is maybe the stupidest thing I've ever heard the man say. If you're really broke, does buying a new car, a bigger house or a new wardrobe SOLVE the problem? But isn't that precisely what he is proposing?
I'm always surprised at what they DON'T know!

THREE CHEERS FOR A REAL LEADER!
Gov. Chris Christie says he won't sign a bill allowing gay marriage in New Jersey like Gov. Andrew Cuomo did in neighboring New York.
Christie appeared on NBC's "Meet the Press" on Sunday, days after Cuomo signed a bill legalizing same-sex marriage in New York. Christie told host David Gregory that New Jersey will "continue to pursue civil unions."
The Republican governor also discussed President Barack Obama's plan to pull troops from Afghanistan and his decision to release 30 million barrels of oil from U.S. emergency reserves.
Christie declined to comment on the troop withdrawal, noting that Obama had more knowledge on the situation, but he expressed concern about the oil release, saying it could be viewed as a political move.
...and the 30 million barrels in question represent a whopping 36 hour supply for the country!! You'd think he'd discovered gas for 30 cents per gallon the way they were talking about this.
Idiots!
And the idea that slowing spending doesn't solve a spending problem, is SO stupid!
Idiots!
There's a very simple answer to this, one that nobody seems willing to notice or admit. Obummer is a liar! That's how he's able to say all these things that don't add-up or make sense. He does the opposite of what he says. He's been doing this all his time in politics.
"Government is not reason, it is not eloquence, it is force; like fire, a troublesome servant and a fearful master. Never for a moment should it be left to irresponsible action..."

It's amazing. George Washington didn't have a computer, iPhone, car or flat screen TV. He never saw an airplane, electric fan or building over about 4 stories tall. He didn't even go to college.
GASP!!!!
Yet, he KNEW how EVIL people think and how easily they slide into power if we don't watch them.
But, did he also know how weak-minded the people are that they would tolerate this?
I would tell you YES. No, not just yes, but hell yes. They were SO sure that it would happen, and such good studiers of history, that they CODIFIED their beliefs in the Declaration and the Constitution.
They saw that the Articles of Confederation didn't work. Both because of peoples foolishness and greed. Add outright stupidity to the mix and we are screwed.
Now, for those very reasons we will most likely need to re-water some freedom trees. I'm game, my oath is still active.
