And he's never addressed the fact that his future off spring will be paying for these massive bill's with higher taxes and lower quality of living, but then I guess that's what he want's for his offspring.

Nope. I would rather that the bills be paid now. I would point out that it is now the republicans who are against "Pay as you go" legislation, not the dems.

It's my opinion that you have that back wards. Pay now or pay later we need to save some of these lofty goals for later and concentrate on JOBS now, that should be first and that was one thing the conservatives wanted, NOT all of this spending when we are going BROKE!! Fix Jobs Fix the economy.IMHO

I don't have it backwards. Republicans in the Senate voted in lockstep against "Pay as you go" rules. They had been in place during the Clinton years, and were removed when republicans controlled everything. Now, finally, Democrats have voted to reinstate "Pay as you go":

Paygo is fine, unless you have to raise taxes to go... Now, if we cut an expense to pay for something else that is appropriate. I am with you.
