“a few minutes ago my friend from Georgia described buying something he didn't need at a price he couldn't afford. I want to thank him for giving us a perfect description of the last 7 years of the governance of this country under the Bush administration. We got a lot of things we didn't need: a war in Iraq, a misadventure in Iraq at a price we couldn't afford, $4 trillion in new debt under their watch. We got $12 billion a month in Iraq under their watch. This is something we do need and we can afford. Higher college scholarships for American students, lower school loan interest rates for American students. And it is paid for, unlike their massive spending increase, unlike their tax break giveaways to the wealthy, this does not increase the deficit by a dollar. We are changing their failed policy of buying things we don't need at prices we can't afford. They should vote for that change today.”
