Rep. Pat Toomey: John Kerry’s Campaign Rhetoric Ignores His Own Record
George W. Bush ^

Posted on 09/10/2004 1:22:24 PM PDT by RWR8189

HARRISBURG, PA – U.S. Rep. Pat Toomey (R-PA) today issued the following statement regarding John Kerry’s campaign travel to Pennsylvania:

“John Kerry talks a lot about lowering the cost of health care, but his record doesn’t show a lot of action. Kerry opposed medical liability reform that would curb frivolous lawsuits costing Americans as much as $108 billion each year and work to keep doctor’s practicing in Pennsylvania – now classified as a ‘crisis’ state by the American Medical Association.

“John Kerry also talks about growing the economy, but Pennsylvanians know his plans for higher taxes and increased government spending would kill job growth and slow economic expansion.

"Pennsylvania voters are losing patience with John Kerry’s flailing attacks on an economy that has created 1.7 million jobs over 12 straight months of expansion, 107,000 new manufacturing jobs in the past seven months, and more than 36,000 new jobs in Pennsylvania since last July.

“The economy continues to grow and prove that President Bush’s tax cuts are working. Pennsylvania voters trust President Bush and are going to support his clear agenda for a safer world and a more hopeful America.”

It might not help PA, but if Kerry gets elected healthcare costs in NC might go down.....by keeping Edwards out of the courtroom.

The polls show Pa is actually up for grabs. If my state goes for Bush, it's lights out Effin.
I hope the good citizens of Pa atone for their clinton sins.
