@JKLustig1 That's it? That all the education you have for me? The Republicans haven't been in long. Less than a year ago you might recall that the Democrats had the house.

Mr. Costs

Please post what cuts you are willing to make and where? Talk is cheap, but I belive you learned that in Lobbyist school. You say that not raising any TAX is good? We have some of the largest corporations in the world not paying anything in Federal tax, our TAX rates are the lowest in over 50yrs but you want to get this budget under control with just cuts. Why don't you speak up for the people you represent like Me, Get us out of NAFTA, GAT , WTO, bring our jobs bac...

@patejosh86 Thank you for your comment, It shows everyone how stupid people like you are! just a little education you might what to think about ( if you are capable of) The President cannot spend anything with out the house of all these repubicans vote YES....

Thank you Dan for standing for something good even when your outnumbered by masses of biased bought out bullies. How about cutting funding for ILLEGAL aliens free babies houses and food? That should save BILLIONS. Or am I "PREJUDICE" for not slaughtering my children to feed to outlaw foreigners? But that's all a drop in the bucket. A NATION THAT TURNS ITS BACK ON ITS OWN IS DOOMED TO FAILURE. . But that's all in OBAMAs plans right? WAKE UP WASHINGTON

Your newsletter provides a link to this video which says something to the effect of go here to get details of why I voted no. This says nothing more than your written statement. Once again you waste the time of the American people. Your No vote is nothing more than a Lobbyist ploy to persuade and solicit your constituents votes in the next election. You worked as a Lobbyist for the special interest for the last twelve years. Why should we believe you've stopped working for them now?

I'm pleased that you maintained a stand for sound fiscal priciples. The need for entitlement reform is obvious and long overdue. Also, I agree that reforming the tax code must be done if our economy is to achieve job-creating growth. However, I would like to know how you would reform the tax code?

I agree that, like American families have always had to do, and are now in many cases doing so with less income than previously, the US Government needs to avoid spending more than they have available. However, the unwillingness to make the very wealthy and large corporations, who have been thriving while many American families have been suffering, pay a fair share and lose unfair loopholes in the tax code is truly disgusting. In as rich a nation as ours, the poor shouldn't suffer as they do.
