Political Quotes

“President Obama has systematically and recklessly attacked the general aviation industry. It's one of America's last remaining great manufacturing industries, employing over 1.2 million people and contributing $150 billion in economic activity each year. He has demonized its users and drawn a line in the sand for higher taxes. And whom is President Obama hurting? Bill Gates? Warren Buffett? No. He's hurting line workers in Wichita, Kansas, and all over the country. He's hurting small business owners trying to get from Topeka to Des Moines to close a business deal. These attacks on our industry are only a diversion, a distraction from the failed economic policies of this administration. His policies have left us with a $1.6 trillion deficit this year alone and a loss of over 2 million jobs during his time in office. Mr. Speaker, the aviation industry is not asking for a bailout like he gave the auto guys. Just leave us alone. Get out of the way. We have a community that just wants to create jobs and grow our economy. That may not be your agenda, Mr. President, but it is certainly mine. ____________________”
