Political Quotes

“the so-called political experts say do not respond to your opponents attacks, just ignore them. But in this case I just cannot sit idly by while I hear the whining and griping from the bitter defenders of the status quo who defend a welfare system that's bloated, scandal-ridden, and a huge waste of our hard-earned tax dollars. Forty years of Democrat control of the House brought us this failed welfare system and now they are defending it with all of their might. The truth is they have turned their backs on those who are less fortunate and then they blame Republicans for trying to undo the damage that they took 30 years to create. After spending billions of dollars on programs that have failed to work and after years of waging a phony war on poverty it is time for the defenders of the status quo to admit defeat and join us in creating a system that understands that true compassion is not measured in the number of our tax dollars spent on welfare, but in the number of Americans who are liberated from the grips of poverty.”
