Then, sir, stop the spending

What President Barack Obama told a crowd in New Mexico about the dangers of "unsustainable" debt was darn near unbelievable.

According to Bloomberg, Obama called the "current deficit spending 'unsustainable.'" He then "warned of skyrocketing interest rates for consumers if the U.S. continues to finance government by borrowing from other countries.

“'We can’t keep on just borrowing from China,'” Obama said at a town-hall meeting in Rio Rancho, N.M., outside Albuquerque. “'We have to pay interest on that debt, and that means we are mortgaging our children’s future with more and more debt.'”

Then, sir, may I suggest that you stop your runaway spending? This new debt is all on you. If you don't heed your own warning, you will be the one who goes down in history as the president who wrecked the country.
