Bless his heart, I have respect for Mitt Romney, but I do not have respect for what he has done through this debt increase debate.

You all work together to reach a goal, and I think all of those factors come into play in my role as governor. — Sarah Palin

We've been slowly going broke for years, but now it's happening all at once as the world's capital markets are demanding action from us, yet Obama assumes we'll just go borrow another cup of sugar from some increasingly impatient neighbor.
