WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama demanded on Monday that lawmakers raise the nation's $16.4 trillion federal debt limit quickly, warning that "Social Security benefits and veterans' checks will be delayed" if they don't and cautioning Republicans not to insist on cuts to government spending in exchange.

"They will not collect a ransom in exchange for not crashing the economy," he said at the 21st and final news conference of his first term. "The full faith and credit of the United States of America is not a bargaining chip. And they better decide quickly because time is running short."

It almost seems as if he wants to destroy what's left of our economy.

He is obviously intelligent, but would appear at the least obtuse. Or he is simply on an ego trip version of his way or the highway.

How does he not see the two courses of action are linked? Short term limit raise with a reduction of frivolous spending.
