Please don't come back House .Enough is enough. Your personal vendettas, your sabotage of any governmental agency that doesn't meet yout cult of stipiditys' philosophy, your inability to do anything positive for the country, The shut down of the FAA and now, kicking the country back into recession: these have all convinced me we would be better off without you. Please stay home. Your actions have been strictly spiteful and partisan. You block appointees and defund anyone who gets in your path. It seems your goal is sabotage not governing. And you seem to be just as good as bush at screwing things up. So, after reflection, I beg you please, stay home, for the good of the country.

"Democrats whine that media won’t republish their spin on FAA impasse"

August 4, 2011

"This story from The Hill has a double dose of irony after a week in which the national media, which had been on New Civility watch since January, ignored the explosion of angry rhetoric from Democrats and their own ranks comparing Tea Party activists to terrorists . Harry Reid and other Democrats in the Senate now whine that the national media won’t report their spin on the impasse over FAA funding as fact":

"One reporter asked why Democrats didn’t swallow the cuts to small airports in their states to pass the short-term authorization and then return in September “to fight another day.”

"But Reid retorted that Republicans would find other “hostages” to force Democrats to back down on the labor issue."

"That’s why the FAA remains in partial shutdown. It’s not because Republicans took the FAA “hostage,” or some equally demagogic and paranoid fantasy in the febrile recesses of Harry Reid’s mind. It’s because the Senate didn’t do anything on the FAA extension until it was too late, thanks to Reid’s apparent fantasy of running a House of Lords rather than an American Senate."

What you like to forget, Pelosi caused our debt. Much of the time for past 4 years Democrat had control of Congress:

"When Pelosi became speaker in January 2007 she was emphatic that there would be no new deficit spending."

“After years of historic deficits, this 110th Congress will commit itself to a higher standard: Pay as you go, no new deficit spending,” she said in her inaugural address from the speaker’s podium. “Our new America will provide unlimited opportunity for future generations, not burden them with mountains of debt.”

"[...]When Pelosi was sworn in on Jan. 4, 2007, the national debt stood at $8,670,596,242,973.04. At the close of business on Jan. 4, 2011, her last full day in the speakership, it stood at 14,014,049,043,294.41–an increase of $5,343,452,800,321.37."

Thanks for AA+ Dems.. Pelosi was Speaker for $5,343,452,800,321.37" in National debt. Democrats Congress has not had a balanced budget for 40 years. We had under Clinton thanks to Newt...

What you did with super majority in Congress was give us a AA+.You're pride of no budget Oct. 1, 2010 ? No budget from Senate for 180 days. You see long before you all lost super majority you ruin this Nation...

Like always it was Bush fault. It was Republican fault. It was TEA fault. Even some Democrat fault.

The bad thing the new House done was try to reduce your debt.

"sabotage" is back. We wanted to stop AA+ by cutting spending, is that definition of "sabotage" ? I'd call obama's $$$ 9.5 trillion budge debt "sabotage", trying to give us "A" rating...

Last time we had a balanced budget was under Newt. Check your records, none before Newt under Clinton. By the way Newt's tax cuts brought in more revenue than Bill's tax increases.

"Sabotage", would that be de-funding Planned Parenthood or Reid's COWBOY POET SOCIETY. Maybe the only cuts you want is military.

Tell me why we have so little of obamacare, must wait until 2014 ? Haven't had a liberal answer that yet. You care to ? I'll answer, CBO says we can't afford it !!!

Democrats basically governed Congress last 4 years. Newt restrained Clinton's spending, and you are proudly steal our accomplishment. Now you try to blame us for your inabilities. So stick with your GENERALITIES. Stat getting specific, you'll face FACTS.

Such as:

What you did with super majority in Congress was give us a AA+.You're pride of no budget Oct. 1, 2010 ? No budget from Senate for 180 days. You see long before you all lost super majority you ruin this Nation...

Like always it was Bush fault. It was Republican fault. It was TEA fault. Even some Democrat fault.
