WASHINGTON- In this week’s address, President Obama spoke to the American people about reducing the nation’s deficit and creating jobs across the country. The President emphasized the need for Government to live within its means— just as families do—in order to put the nation on a fiscally sustainable path which is critical to long-term economic growth and job creation. To solve the deficit problem, Democrats and Republicans must make tough choices and look at every tax loophole and program for opportunities to save money. President Obama stressed the importance of trimming the budget while also making critical investments in education, research, and technology to spur job growth and invest in our future. As families and friends join together to celebrate Independence Day, the President reminded Americans that since our founding, we have overcome challenges by coming together to solve our nation’s problems.

How many TRILLIONS of dollars did Obama and the Democrats in Congress add to the national debt in the first two years that Obama held office?
Incidentally, has the unemployment rate increased or decreased since Obama & the Democrats took office? How is Obama's socialist "stimulus package" working for America?
Bottom line: America is worse because it elected Obama and a Democrat-controlled Congress. The American people said as much at the last mid-term election.
More than 10 years of Bush's tax cuts for the rich (foolishly extended by Obama) and we're still waiting for that "trickle down" effect. Hello, anyone there trickling yet?
Truth, Seems like you'd like to rewrite history.
Maybe you've forgotten how bad things were when Bush left office.
Sure we have long way to go but no one could completely fix the mess GWB made in his 2 terms.
Look at the stock market and your 401K. Everyone's has rebounded and then some.
I'm willing to give Obama till the end of his term to do the job.
That's why we have elections.
Truth ???? Aren't you just the same ole MOTOR MOUTH ??????

No.
It's sad that you'd foolishly spend your time focused on who I am rather than the arguments that I've made. But then again, I am not at all surprised. Thinking about what others earn and/or do is what you liberals do best.
No, Anonymous @ 6:47 AM on 4 July 2011. I am not any of the people that you've mentioned above.
Whether you are capable of recognizing it or not, there are all too many voters that are not socialists. I imagine many of us are posting on this blog site. Go figure.
Veritas, Please enough with the socialism. You sound like McCarthy back in the 1950s accusing so many of being communists.
Look what happened to him. A very sad, embarrassing time in our history that all people should learn from.
We know why you want to label Dems as socialists. Sounds evil and scary like the USSR.
However, as much as you'd like try and stir pot with your ridiculous accusations, you should know that there is no other stronger capitalistic country than the good old US of A.
Caring about our fellow Americans is not socialism, it's being a good Christian. It's ironic that the conservative right wing part of the Republican party who claim to have such high moral authority would behave so unchristian like.
I'm not suggesting that people in need be given an unlimited amount of support and charity, however these are unusually desperate times for many. Our leaders should be doing everything they can do to help people get back on their feet.
Shame on those who want to turn their backs on their fellow Americans.
