Peter Orszag on the daily show

Wow, I have so much respect for Obama, what a difference, he is hiring people who actually have a brain, if everybody else in his administration is like Peter, then the USA and world is in very good hands.

2. Whenever he is one screen --

I have a hard time focsuing on what he is saying -- I find myself fixated on the opossum he's got on his head. :scared:

But I have liked what I have heard from him so far.

6. Seemed to me he couldn't or wouldn't differentiate between Deficit and Debt.

He kept saying nine trillion dollar deficit....No wonder Jon was confused, so was I..We have over a ten trillion dollar debt at the moment and that is growing faster than one can even imagine. The Debt Clock which was turned completely off during the Clinton
Administration is such a blur now it is unreadable. Remember we have to pay interest on that Debt and it is becoming more than any social program in place..
