In case you missed it yesterday, Townhall.com ran my op-ed called “The Comeback Kids.” It looks at our journey as Republicans over the last few years. Here’s a taste: This fall, we will witness a comeback; not just of the Republican Party, but of the principles Americans hold so dear. No longer will government exist merely to perpetuate itself or to use the American people | Read More »
Note: This was originally posted on PAWatercooler.com. We’re less than four weeks away from Election Day, and we have an exciting race in Pennsylvania’s Eleventh Congressional District between Young Gun candidate, Lou Barletta and long-time Democrat Paul Kanjorski. Lou, the mayor of Hazleton, PA, has correctly called for accountability from Kanjorski and Congressional Democrats for the unsustainable growth of government, job losses, and the poor | Read More »
Note: This was originally posted on Bucks Right. Republicans winning over independents and Reagan Democrats are crucial to our party’s chances of earning a majority in the House. With Republican Mike Fitzpatrick running we have a great chance to win Pennsylvania’s Eighth Congressional District. This district covers parts of northeast Philadelphia and the adjacent suburbs. George Will describes it as having “about 209,000 Democrats, 189,000 | Read More »
Today, the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget estimated the Democratic Congress added over $1.4 trillion to the public debt this past year. That’s more debt put on future generations to pay back. Our country can’t afford to continue all the spending and borrowing. That’s why we need new leaders in Congress like Austin Scott in Georgia’s Eighth Congressional District. This Young Gun and owner | Read More »
After adjourning, Nancy Pelosi and House Democratic leaders tried spinning their legislative “accomplishments” to reporters. What were those accomplishments? An unpopular government takeover of health care bill; a failed economic stimulus bill; and unemployment that is still near double-digits. I’m not surprised Americans are tired of these bad ideas, which is helping to build an electoral wave for common-sense solutions. That wave is hitting Arkansas. | Read More »
Yesterday in the House, 39 Democrats joined every Republican to vote against adjourning. We wanted a vote to extend the 2001 and 2003 tax cuts before we left Washington. The Democrats said, “no.” If nothing is done, the Democrats will let the largest tax increase in American history take place. Such irresponsible behavior will not get our economy moving. Ed Morrissey at Hot Air put | Read More »
The Congressional Democrats claimed their government takeover of health care–the bill that was over 2,000 pages, most of it unread–would lower costs. However, The Chicago Tribune reports, cost will go up: In 2011, the combined average of premium and out-of-pocket costs for health care coverage for an employee is projected to climb to $4,386, according to an annual study by Hewitt Associates to be released | Read More »
Note: This was originally posted on HoosierAccess. What drives people to put aside their regular lives and dive into politics? For a few doctors it was the Congressional Democrats passing their unpopular health care law. Who better understands the health care system than our doctors? One such person is Dr. Larry Bucshon running in Indiana’s Eighth Congressional District. This heart surgeon and Navy veteran knows | Read More »
Note: This post was first published on Say Anything. You don’t need me to tell you that Congressional Democrats aren’t listening to the public they were hired to serve. Two cases in point – (1) running up massive debt on an economic stimulus bill that didn’t create jobs and (2) using back room deals to ram the government takeover of health care bill through Congress. | Read More »
Note: This originally appeared on Aolnews.com. “A Pledge to America” is the House Republicans’ answer to the question tens of millions of Americans are asking: Will we leave our children a stronger, healthier, more prosperous country than our parents left us? Across this great nation, mothers and fathers wonder if their children will find the same opportunities for success that existed just a generation ago. | Read More »
