Please don't come back House .Enough is enough. Your personal vendettas, your sabotage of any governmental agency that doesn't meet wing-nut purity standards, your inability to do anything positive for the country, 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.

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

I must have wigged out or something there for a spell. For a moment I thought that sod bush was back, intent on finishing the job he'd started demolishing the country. But no, it's the republican house doing their best impersonation, sodding up the works.

People like that don't think a government has a budget just like our household. One not on steroids, credit card. Our cards are more than max out, yet heatwave of Tx complains of cuts we want to make. Even after credit rating dropped to AA+. Whose right obama who wants to add $$$ 9.5 trillion to debt, or us, who say no, & want to reduce. OBAMA OF COURSE. Sane, rational thinking of heatwave of Tx ? Maybe "heatwave" has a fried brain. Needs to be committed !!!

Bruce would not normally matter , problem is his type of mindset is becomming to prevalant in society in general . It's not my fault and some body else has to pay . And he has a 68 year old foot , it's either a goverment pension foot or some union foot .
As far as a call , time will tell . My foot is only 57 years old .

Do you ever have anything constructive to say ? It apears not . Another talking head and parrot for the left with no common sense .

Hunter of WI 1:07AM August 07, 2011

Giving me some good lines to make my points. Like "The Republican House is beginning to look a lot like George bush". We are well past able to afford obama. Give me the 8 years of Bush debt anyday over what barry's will be at his rate was going....

Bill Hedges of MO 1:03AM August 07, 2011
