Obama to Congress: end 'manufactured crises'

Orange lights illuminate the White House in Washington, DC, October 31, 2013President Barack Obama on Saturday called for an end to "manufactured crises and self-inflicted wounds" as he urged Republicans and Democrats in Congress to approve a new federal budget. Obama spoke a little more than two weeks after the United States scraped through a bitter budget and debt ceiling battle that threatened to send the country into default and forced the 16-day partial federal government shutdown, but only by using stop-gap measures that pushed the battle deadlines forward. Obama said Congress should "pass a budget that cuts things we don't need, and closes wasteful tax loopholes that don't help create jobs, so that we can free up resources for the things that actually do create jobs and growth." In the absence of a budget agreement between Republicans and Democrats, federal spending has been slashed in blunt, massive cuts since March.
