Obama to hold new deficit-reduction meetings with Democratic, Republican senators

By Felicia Sonmez

President Obama will hold two separate meetings later this week with all Democratic and all Republican senators to talk about deficit reduction, White House Press Secretary Jay Carney announced Monday.

Obama’s meeting with the Senate Democrats is scheduled to take place on Wednesday. He is expected to meet with Senate Republicans on Thursday.

The meetings will come on the heels of Tuesday’s meeting at Blair House between Vice President Joe Biden and negotiators from both chambers, the second round in the White House-led deficit-reduction talks.

Congressional leaders are beginning this week to draw more-detailed lines in the deficit-reduction battle. House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) is traveling Monday to Manhattan, where he’s expected to lay out House Republicans’ strategy in the looming debt-limit fight.

OMG, this man is killing America financially. Since he's been in office, the National Debt has gone up from 9 trillion to 14.3 trillion, and now he's asking for 2 trillion more, and now he's asking for more money to give Europe another bailout of 180 billion dollars.

WTF is wrong with the man. STOP bailing out other countries, and I would like to know exactly where all these trillions of dollars went to.

This administration all needs to be thrown behind bars for stealing the American people's tax dollars. There is no way in hell he spent 5 trillion on the economy and the American people. We are worse off now before he was elected. Something is very wrong with this administration.

We should stop virtually all foreign aid, I know it is not that much in the grand scheme of things, but when you have to borrow money there is no reason to send money to other countries.

Just wait until The European Union decides not to save Greece and Italy, and announce those two countries are no longer part on the Union.
Look for the USA to announce the next bailout.

-but I would like to know where the 5 trillion dollars went since he was put in office. Going from 9 trillion to 14.3 trillion in less than three years. Something is definitely not adding up here.

Obama is now asking for another bailout for Europe in the tune of 180 billion dollars. when was the last time he asked or handed out 180 billion to the common people of America.

Europe made their own mess, let them clean it up. American taxpayers should not be bailing out any other country other than their own.

Remember in addition to direct aid from the USA, the FED bailed out foreign central banks.
