The fact that we are here today to debate raising America’s debt limit is a sign of leadership failure.
Funny how that's the first time in a hundred years we have heard that. I think its more an effort to denigrate and bring down a Democratic president by the right wing than a lack of anything. And they make no bones about it as a priority, over any need this country has.
The right wing sees everything as an opportunity to get what they want, smaller government, weaker government, and a bunch of poor people without jobs or resources. They think it makes their piece of the pie bigger, and better.

It is a sign that the U.S. Government can’t pay its own bills.
Then the US government has never been able to pay its bills, because raising the debt ceiling has always been around decades anyway. Why is it bad now? Because the right wing said so. And it's a perfect opportunity to hold the whole country hostage AGAIN, and extort more tribute to there corporate masters, (nice rhetoric, hehehe!), to keep resources and wealth in the deserving hands of rich fat cats, and doled out as they see fit.
To do this and keep the masses under thumb, they have to divert the peoples money from the peoples interest, and into their own pockets.

It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government’s reckless fiscal policies. …
Medicaid, Medicare, Social Security,and anything that helps the poor and disenfranchised, and unfortunate, like Education, and Health Care have an opportunity to rising above their own poverty, or station in life.

Increasing America’s debt weakens us domestically and internationally.
Moving jobs overseas weakens America, not making things here in America weakens America, but then that was part of the plan any way, to turn us into another third world country with cheap labor, weak government, and corporate dictators raking in the money.

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.
Just as right wing policy seeks to keep generations of poor, even poorer, and without education, and opportunity for anything but the most menial, low wage jobs in the world. The working class is the new servant class. That's what they mean by a service economy. With big gaps between class, and privilege.

America has a debt problem and a failure of leadership. Americans deserve better.
Yes it deserves better and will work to get it, as we defeat the right wing, and restore America to the land of opportunity, and the world leader in innovation, both in scientific, and social advancement.
The revolution will be televised, but you have to have cable to get it.
