Political Quotes

“Madam Speaker, as backroom deals and threats continue to force a health care takeover vote, the costs from the Congressional Budget Office have just been released of nearly $1 trillion. State leaders across the country have recognized that this takeover could bankrupt our great Nation. Just yesterday, the State treasurer for Massachusetts, Tim Cahill, said, ``If President Obama and the Democrats repeat the mistakes of the health insurance mandate in Massachusetts on a national level, they will bankrupt this country within 4 years.'' Other State leaders have expressed great concerns about unfunded mandates. South Carolina is one of 36 legislatures considering barring individuals from being compelled to purchase health insurance. I applaud State leaders who are fighting Big Government mandates which the NFIB estimates will kill 1.6 million jobs. In conclusion, God bless our troops, and we will never forget September the 11th in the global war on terrorism. ____________________”
