Joe Scarborough: “I love children. I have two children myself, and I enjoy listening to politicians try to use children for their own…”

“I love children. I have two children myself, and I enjoy listening to politicians try to use children for their own political gain, especially when it smacks of hypocrisy. Some politicians in Washington love children so much that they go to them first when they want to steal their money. This country is in debt to the tune of $5.5 trillion and guess who Senator Kerrey's commission, a Democrat, said was going to be paying for that $5 trillion? Senator Kerrey's commission says by the year 2020, because of the $5.5 trillion deficit, our children will pay 89 percent of every dollar they earn to taxes to the Federal Government. Now if these people really love children, they can pass a balanced budget amendment, get rid of Potomac fever; stop promising one thing at home, coming up to Washington DC, doing something else, and start allowing our children to have the same American dream that each one of us was able to enjoy. Mr. Speaker, we need to pass it now.”
