Obama Tells Kids GOP Will Reduce Deficit “On Your Backs”
Posted by Jim Hoft on Tuesday, April 19, 2011, 11:44 AM
He’s a uniter.
Barack Obama is the biggest spender in the history of earth. He tripled the deficit in one year, he increased the debt by nearly $4 trillion in two years and Obama and democrats increased the budget by $1 trillion in the three years.
So it makes perfect sense then that he would go out today and speak to kids about “living within our means.” Today Barack told a group of kids that the GOP wants to reduce the deficit on your backs while he continues to increase the deficit on their backs.
The Hill reported:
President Obama on Tuesday told Virginia community college students that unless young people mobilize, special interests in Washington will balance the federal budget by slashing student aid and other education spending.
“I can’t afford to have all of you as bystanders,” Obama told a town-hall meeting at Northern Virginia Community College. “There are powerful interests in Washington … they are going to want to reduce the deficit on your backs.”
He told students that Republicans want to cut Pell Grant scholarships with their budget, but that his own budget plan would increase education spending while reducing deficits by $4 trillion over 12 years.
The president got applause when he called for $400 billion in new cuts to the Pentagon and for taxing the wealthy.
“We are going to have to ask everyone to sacrifice, and if we are going to ask community colleges to sacrifice…then we can ask millionaires and billionaires to make a little sacrifice,” he said.
Young voters backed Obama in droves in 2008 and will be important to his reelection effort in 2012. Polls suggest Obama’s support is stronger with voters younger than 40 than it is with voters older than 40.
Obama also said he wants things to be fair - meaing taking more from the producers.

I’ll tell you what fair is – nobody works and nobody makes money or everyone works and everyone makes their own money….now that is fair. Fair isn’t when you work so others don’t have to work. How has America allowed a socialist to hold the highest Office in the land. Obama lies and lies, and as the Bible says in Daniel 8:23-25:
“Daniel 8:23-25 (New International Version 1984, ©1984)
23 “In the latter part of their reign, when rebels have become completely wicked, a stern-faced king, a master of intrigue, will arise. 24 He will become very strong, but not by his own power. He will cause astounding devastation and will succeed in whatever he does. He will destroy the mighty men and the holy people. 25 He will cause deceit to prosper, and he will consider himself superior. When they feel secure, he will destroy many and take his stand against the Prince of princes. Yet he will be destroyed, but not by human power.”

They only hear what they want to hear, and that is that this cool dude is for them and will give them “free education” while the other side won’t.
Odumbo is doing exactly what works and exactly what will get him elected (I hope not) in 2012.

Silly damn fool has no clue about productivity, or economics.
Guess who charmed the rich into paying the most?

“Washington is teeing up “the rich” for a big tax hike next year, as a way to make them “pay their fair share.” Well, the latest IRS data have arrived on who paid what share of income taxes in 2006, and it’s going to be hard for the rich to pay any more than they already do. The data show that the 2003 Bush tax cuts caused what may be the biggest increase in tax payments by the rich in American history.”
…”the top 1% of taxpayers, those who earn above $388,806, paid 40% of all income taxes in 2006, the highest share in at least 40 years. …”
Aha, we are told: The rich paid more taxes because they made a greater share of the money. That is true. The top 1% earned 22% of all reported income. But they also paid a share of taxes not far from double their share of income. In other words, the tax code is already steeply progressive. …

This is a classic economic effect. Economics is called “the dismal science” because it has a tendency to frustrate naiive would-be do-gooders.
Let’s not be dopes.

why didn’t he tell them the truth, his budget will increase spending on everything. future generations will have to pay for it or watch their country go bankrupt. this marxist’s goal is to destroy this country so he and his cohorts can start it over as a communist country. that is what obama is going to give future generations, a communist country to live in.

Old Fan commented:
More ugly lies from a Democratic Partisan hack named Obama.
The insulting ‘con’ on Americans continues. The Democratic Party really must think that Americans are chumps.
But then again, we see fashionable offerings from Our own side, contrary to Conservatism, which offers ugly populism. It is stunning.
Instead of basis, we see fan fare and image games.
The other day, a Democratic Partisan was offering more lies on TV, I think he was Palone from NJ, saying we have to spend more to create jobs. Totally insane, as his Party’s disastrous Stimulus did the opposite, creating more Democratic Partisan failure.
But then the fashion from our own side seems utterly lost at times as well. The same folly which created a “lay down” for Nancy Pelosi movement out of emotive garbage. The same which plays class warfare with elites, and calls Charles Krauthammer names.
Mr. Hoft is one of the finest, but we must ask, where are the leaders and conservatives who are not flying off the handle every two minutes, playing the crowd with contradictory Celebrity hype?
Bring back WFB, before it is too late…

Obama is a perfect bastard. Wow! What an &$$ hole! He purposefully loaded these kids with his debts than turns around and blames the GOP for a solution to his incompetence.
IOW, he knows the solution will be painful but he’s not taking the blame for it.
patman commented:
“I can’t afford to have all of you as bystanders,”…
Yeah, he wants them all to walk out of class on his command to harass and berate anyone who disagrees with him.
I hate Obama.

They may have to rethink this taking the message to the people strategy.
tarpon commented:
What the useful idiots weren’t told is they, their kids and their kids grand-kids already owe the Obama debt. That is if there is still an economy left by the time they are 40.

Oddly, this is entirely true. The problem is, OBAMA is the POWERFUL INTEREST trying to do it!
I wonder if this is how the people of Germany saw Adolph in the 1930′s? A person deliberatly lieing and mis-leading with every speach. Like Obama, Adolph also used continuous demonizations and class warfare in order to promote his agenda.

Pure denial and projection at work here.
The debt he has added will no doubt be a major burden that he is trying to say the Repubs will make worse by cutting back on that debt. Makes as much sense as saying you will be worse off it you cut your credit card balance in half.
Few in the MSM will call him on this and he seems to always come up with this kind of statement that fails in fact checking.
The guy couldn’t balance a checkbook without a calculator and a teleprompter.
When you add up all of the lousy financial policy choices he has supported there a way to many of them to consider it and accident or incompetence you just have to say their is with malice and forethought involved.
ponderon commented:
