Obama tripled the deficit his first year in office. The deficit has been more than a trillion dollars every year since.

The Obama deficit this year is expected to reach $1.29 trillion. (The Captain’s Comments)
So the last person on earth who should be lecturing America on “living within our means” is Barack Obama. But since when has that stopped him?
From the White House website:
The White House
Office of the Press Secretary
For Immediate Release September 19, 2011Fact Sheet: Living Within Our Means and Investing in the Future – The President’s Plan for Economic Growth and Deficit Reduction
Overview
The health of our economy depends on what we do right now to create the conditions where businesses can hire and middle-class families can feel a basic measure of economic security. In the long run, our prosperity also depends on our ability to pay down the massive debt the federal government has accumulated over the past decade. Today, the President sent to the Joint Committee his plan to jumpstart economic growth and job creation now – and to lay the foundation for it continue for years to come.The President’s Plan for Economic Growth and Deficit Reduction lives up to a simple idea: as a Nation, we can live within our means while still making the investments we need to prosper – from a jobs bill that is needed right now to long-term investments in education, innovation, and infrastructure. It follows a balanced approach: asking everyone to do their part, so no one has to bear all the burden. And it says that everyone – including millionaires and billionaires – has to pay their fair share. Overall, it pays for the President’s jobs bill and produces net savings of more than $3 trillion over the next decade, on top of the roughly $1 trillion in spending cuts that the President already signed into law in the Budget Control Act – for a total savings of more than $4 trillion over the next decade. This would bring the country to a place, by 2017, where current spending is no longer adding to our debt, debt is falling as a share of the economy, and deficits are at a sustainable level.
When he gets his wife to cut a couple million dollars off of her yearly vacation tab maybe we’ll listen. But, until then, he can save the lectures.

The way to stop this tax the rich BS is to actually pass a law to requiree a 15% annual tax on the value of all trust funds. You watch the elite scream then.

Even more disgusting are people who still believe anything the lying PoS says.
MN Jim commented:
After the examples that obama and the Wookie have given us, all I want to hear from his pie-hole is “I resign in disgrace.”
AuntieMadder commented:
Y’know, I was flipping channels today and came across his televised speech for today. (Does he go on TV every day? Sure seems like it to me.) I never watch/listen to him anyway because the sight of him p!sses me off. But even if I was able to stomach him sometimes, this time wouldn’t have been one of them because he was lecturing or scolding his listeners. To hell with that noise. In my 47 years, I’ve not been scolded or lectured by an American president yet and that Kenyan jacka$$ sure isn’t going to be the one to break that record.

Government ‘invests’ in nothing. It spends money the public would have otherwise used for themselves.
Some of this spending is necessary and some of it is required by the Constitution. The rest is a diversion of funds to buy votes. End it now. November 6, 2012 – End Dependence Day.

He needs higher taxes to pay for Michelle’s fly-away parties. He’s desperate to get her out of the house.
Craig commented:
“Living Within Our Means”
Is he talking about the government or about the citizens?
The citizens nowaday live below their means. But the government live way high beyond their means.
Abolish the Federal Reserve and you will be fine. You don’t owe them a penny. The Fractional Reserve Banking system, is a Ponzi scheme, a fraud and a scam. They create money out of thin air, they land it back to you with interests.

I feel like this is a Fellini movie and obama’s Uncle Leo pissing from the top of a tree. It’s unreal.
Redwine commented:
OK – Let’s ask grifters Comrade Barry and the Moocher to return the $10 million of our money she pi$$ed away. Let maybe we can start the discussion on “living withing our means”. Next, we’ll get him to return the billions he took from us to throw away on his f***buddies, parties, golf games, dope, booze, etc.
Just-Saying commented:
Never has had an honest job. Who is he to be lecturing us?!?

yes, it is connected, you just may not see it yet..
“A Disavowal of the pursuit of Middleclassness’, the heading read. While it is permissible to chase ‘middleincomeness’ with all our might, the text stated, those blessed with the talent or good fortune to achieve success in the American mainstream must avoid the psychological entrapment of Black ‘middleclassness’ that hypnotizes the successful brother or sister into believing they are better than the rest and teaches them to think in terms of ‘we’ and ‘they’ instead of ‘US’!”
