'You cant keep throwing debt on top of debt,'
New Hampshire Republican Sen. Judd Gregg said Sunday.
Not with Obama as the top banana, surely?!!?
Only lately has Gregg been able to claim that he is a Republican. I guess that 2 or 3 day jaunt as an Obama appointee woke him up to what the Democrats are really up to.
Watch it be pursued continually by the village idiot however.
The RNC and the RINOs don’t care. It’s all talk till the spending cuts come. The GOP is spineless, hypocritical, and worthless.
Gregg, I think someone is having a very strong “DUH” situation.
Oh, Yes I Can! (cuz I know the MSM will cover for me!)
What I think the Obama administration is failing to consider is that everyone has a credit limit- no one can borrow indefinitely. Sooner or later- and probably sooner in this case- lenders are going to be no longer interested in lending any more money.
Then it will be time to either cut back, raise taxes, or run the printing presses 24/7. The last option is the worst, but I fear that Obama doesn’t have the political courage to do either of the first two options.
Well, welcome to the real world Mr. Gregg - You and Bush had your chance to do something about it but decided to continue spending us into oblivion. Now you complain because the new Democratic administration is outdoing you... Well, if you really wanted to do something about spending and the debt, you would have acted when in power. Now, all you can do is complain!
Well, most people have had it up to our ears with both parties spending like there is no tomorrow! Just who are we suppose to vote for anyway. Unfortunately, we do not have a real choice anymore so it is either another party (future) or abstain.
The only other alternative is one of those tax/spend revolts that you use to support - remember the tea party of old? Well, maybe that is the only solution these days...
Not seeking reelection?
Running for office?
Could be? Sheesh!
Gregg must be trying to understate things.
He should look around outside the beltway.
We are a freakin banana Republic, which is why guns and ammo have been flying off the freakin shelves for 2 years.
That's racist.
Looks like Uncle Sam is going to need a private sector bailout.
Well, then why did you, Mr. Gregg, start to JOIN Hussein as his Sec of Commerce??
Look. Republicans can go on these shows and point out Hussein’s stupidity—I encourage that, because it shows they’re taking him on.
Now how about calling him out more publicly—in your own hometowns and on your LOCAL television and newspaper outlets? People in your districts and states want to know you oppose socialist joker Hussein!
It’s a good thing for us that when we had a Republican majority in Congress, all of the anti-big-government and anti-socialist laws were repealed and funding for extraneous programs stopped. ...not to mention the rebuilding of our manufacturing base and military forces. Otherwise, we’d be headed for a heap of trouble.
Oh...I was dreaming that cheerleading bandwagons in politics might help us.
Banana...as in banana clip???
The first four are poor and pay nothing.
The fifth pays $1.
The sixth pays $3.
The seventh, $7,
The eighth, $12.
The ninth, $18.
The 10th, (the most well-to-do) pays $59.
One night the restaurant owner announces that because they're such good customers, he's dropping their group dinner bill to $80. Let's call that a tax cut. They want to continue paying their bill as we pay taxes. So the four poorest men still eat free. But if the other six split the $20 tax cut evenly, each would save $3.33. That means the fifth and sixth men would end up being paid to eat. The restaurant owner works out a plan: The fifth man eats free; the sixth pays $2; the seventh, $5; the eighth, $9; the ninth, $12; and the 10th guy pays $52. All six are better off than before, and the four poor guys still eat for nothing. The trouble starts when they leave the restaurant and begin to compare what they reaped from the $20 cut. "I only got a dollar of it," says the sixth man, "but he (pointing at No. 10) got $7." The fifth guy, who also saved a dollar by getting his meal free, agrees that it's not fair for the richest to get seven times the savings as he. No. 7, grousing that the wealthy get all the breaks, points out that he only got two bucks. "Wait a minute," the first four poor guys yell in unison. "We didn't get anything at all. The system exploits the poor!" The nine men jump the 10th and administer a severe beating. The next night he doesn't come for dinner. They shrug it off and eat without him. The customary $80 bill comes. Surprise! They're $52 short.
"A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largess from the public treasury. From that time on the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury, with the results that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship."
-- Alexander Fraser Tyler (1742-1813)
It'll hit long before "our children". We'll be paying the price too.
What a joke! Judd torpedo’d the bush administration and took the ‘high road’ of complicity with the Obama administration. Now he wants to play elder statesman. Go away Judd. New Hampshire and the nation need real conservatives. Go Sarah!
(yeah, I’m from the Granite State)
