Political Quotes

“the budget season is upon us. Today, the Budget Committee will meet to mark up the 2009 budget resolution. With a new year and new opportunity, I hope the majority does not resort to the Big Government policies of the past. That means no more tax increases for hardworking Americans. Taxpayers already pay enough out of their pockets to fund the Washington bureaucracy. They should not be asked to fork over more money to subsidize billions of dollars in new wasteful government spending. Republicans and Democrats need to craft a budget that accurately reflects the needs of the American people, honors our obligation to be good stewards of taxpayer dollars, and above all, takes a realistic and proactive approach to reining in runaway entitlement spending. Future generations should not be forced to pay the price while the leadership here in Washington refuses to make the tough decisions. In conclusion, God bless our troops, and we will never forget September the 11th.”
