Raising the debt ceiling doesn't increase the nation's debt

"Now, this debt ceiling -- I just want to remind people in case you haven't been keeping up -- raising the debt ceiling, which has been done over a hundred times, does not increase our debt; it does not somehow promote profligacy.  All it does is it says you got to pay the bills that you've already racked up, Congress.  It's a basic function of making sure that the full faith and credit of the United States is preserved."

“Mr. President, I rise today to talk about America’s debt problem. 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.” - Senator Obama 2006

Just a little reminder of his duplicity.

Senator Obama said the need to raise the Debt Limit was another reflection of the "Government's reckless fiscal policies."

Senator Obama also denounced the rising National Debt as "a hidden domestic enemy" robbing cities & states of "critical investments."
