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. Famous American
Statesman
After he was a famous Kenyan-Indonesian statesman.
