Cognitive dissonance

From the President's speech in Montana today:

Where are you going to get the money? Well, you can tax somebody to get the money; you can get rid of the benefits that you promised; you can cut other programs; or you can keep borrowing debt. That’s why I think we’ve got a problem.

(snip)
So my judgment is — and that’s why I went in front of Congress yesterday, and said, okay, let’s fix the problem.

While a few minutes later:

What I’m about to tell you will not permanently fix Social Security...

So you say there is a problem with Social Security, but then your proposal does nothing to fix it.

There's your leader, folks.
