Political Quotes

“This morning was a remarkable time. The President, even though it's 65 days late, came out with a budget today. And it is interesting to note that it is about $600 billion of new taxes, after we've just had a $620 billion tax increase on this economy, with the health care bill, about another $1.2 trillion of new taxes and fees, and his budget proposal increases the size of government 50 percent over the next 10 years. Mr. Speaker, I've been home for the last couple of weeks talking to constituents, and what they tell me is the fact that they want a balanced budget. The President's budget never gets to balance. Our budget does. They want a balanced budget. They want us to get control of spending in Washington because they know how it affects themselves, their families, and the future of this country. The spending coupled with all of the new regulations, the health care mandates coming down on small businesses, they are stopping job growth. We have got to get some common sense in this House. ____________________”
