Boehner Floor Speech on Dems' Runaway Spending

[ratty88]

This guy is a pathetic liar.

HIS POLICIES (repub policy) BUILT THIS DEFICIT.

Not democratic spending.

conservatives make me sick with their reliance on fiction.

If you insist on voting against yourself, at least do it for a real reason, not the fiction this bonehead peddles.

Now to the Green agenda that the administration is pushing. Green technologies (to just purchas a green version of a product v. a non green product) costs significcantly more. While the initial investment is the long term payoff is savings. what is the problem with that the democrats ask. AND THE ANSWER IS THAT WE DO NOT HAVE THE MONEY RIGHT NOW! why? BECAUSE WE ARE BORROWING FROM CHINA, SOCIAL SECURITY, AND WELFARE!!!!! and then we print more money which means what? DECREASE IN DOLLAR VALUE.

[Lmmarcher09]

THe heakthcare system is costing us more money becasue those pepopel that pay for their own health insurance or those companies that provide it for their employees are now forced to pay higher premiums to help pay for those who are being supported by the government health insurance plans FOR FREE! That means more costs for fewer people who actually pay for it.

[Lmmarcher09]

Now around 12% of the money tht we are spending in addition to what is being borrowed from china (china's money comes from what? OIL and COAL) is being borrowed from other AMERICAN public assistance programs like welfare and Social Security to CREATE MORE PUBLIC ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS! does that make any sense to anyone. THen add the healthcare debacle into the mix. THE healthcare system that is modeled on Canada's healthcare system that canadians come here to avoid! Why? see next comment.

[Lmmarcher09]

The Obama administration has spent 12 times the amount of money that the Bush administration spent. Granted BUsh had two wars, Hurricane KAtrina (and you can debate how well that was handled but if you understand how state laws work in relation to federal ones thats pretty clear) Bush in his eight years spent 367 Billion AND BEFORE OBAMA TOOK OFFICE THAT WAS TOO MUCH SPENDING! Our national debt now exceeds $14,000,000,000,000 and we are borrowing around 40% of the money we are pumping from china

Boner is wall streets nigger!

The Problem is with both parties. Republicans as well as Democrats signed the TARP that started the "tax & spend" spree in Washington. I'd like to see some accountability, not finger pointing. Republicans need to hold their own accountable and the Democrats should hold their own accountable. Looking forward to lots of new faces in Washington in 2010!

This administration has gone too far, and congress has gone too far as well, it's time to take our country back! We cannot sit by and see it destroyed by socialism! This congress has got to go! We must vote them out! And the czar thing! What's that? Just a way around having to get things passed in congress!

[gloredaze]

Great speech, we need more, much more, get your grubby hands out of our pockets, get your noses out of our lives, go back to limited government and freedom for Americans!

You have over stepped your bounds and gone to far, Mr O! you are circumventing congress with you 'czars'..knock it off your 'socialism' is exposed! You are not following the constitution, infact you are stomping it in the ground! We wont stand for it, I promise!

[gloredaze]

to guitarspeller,

no one disagrees that the repubs got the ball rolling but this has been doubled down and regardless of any party or person enough is enough it's time to cut up their credit cards, take the car keys away, and yes just say NO, saying no to someone whos destroying their self and others is a good thing! let me remind you there were dems in on the cause' of the deficit, ie Barney Frank, Chris Dodd they all need to just stop it

[hightax]

Obama the worse President in US history? I think he's shaping up to be just that. Probably be the last one in our history, too, since there won't be a US to be president of after he's finished with us.

[MaXG65]

The democ_rats are doing this for a reason!

It's planed!

Just like they planned the failure of the two FM's!

To shove their Marxist agenda down our throats!

[rationalnow]

This reckless spending from Democrats is beyond absurd! It's as if they have a "spending disease" and have no control of themselves. They don't even bother to try to rationalize their radical spending anymore. An example of this is giving billions of dollars to the IMF, very inappropriately attached to the war funding bill! They're giving money away to foreign countries while were trillions of dollars in debt! Unbelievable!

[MrMindfucker]

Yea!

 I'm right! Perfectly spoken!

[MrMindfucker]

That's it! I want congress to respond and provide some answer's or to audit the fed!

John has perfected this speech!

The first time I heard it, I thought it was funny.The more time's I hear it the better he get's at it.

[issanel]

I couldn't imagine having his job watching everyone piss away money like that.

Poor guy is talking and offering ideas knowing that no one will bother to listen.

G-d bless him.

[CCDW08]

I sure wish that the Democratic Party would work with the Republican Party on solving Americans problems instead of creating problems for American's...

[strawspulled]

Good to see some fiscal sanity still being voiced from a few people in Washington.

Thanks for co-sponsering Rep Paul's HR1207 Federal Reserve Audit bill recently John. If the Fed can deal in the trillions secretly with zero oversight, and even our elected officials don't have the authority to find out what the Fed is doing. Then what incentive does the Fed have to act responsibly behind the scenes - or not engage in private deals that the government will have no clue about.

Please protect America's credit card.
