Political Quotes

“Mr. Speaker, I rise today with serious concerns about the misguided agenda our friends on the other side of the aisle are pursuing. While Democrats continue to make job creation, economic recovery, and debt reduction top priorities, the majority continues to engage in political theater. In fact, their first actions after assuming control of the House haven't created a single job or protected a single American business. Instead, the other side's top priority has been to repeal the patient protections provided by the new health care reform bill; and their so- called ``budget resolution'' they have offered today is a one-page document with no specific cuts to reduce spending, no budget numbers and, most importantly, no ideas on job creation or on economic recovery. Mr. Speaker, we were sent here to create jobs and get the American economy back on track, both the Republicans and Democrats. Let's stop the political gimmickry, and let's get to the work of putting the American people back to work. ____________________”
