Landry Says no to Obama Invite
THE DEAD PELICAN 2011 ^ | Congressman Jeff Landry

Posted on 06/01/2011 2:01:36 PM PDT by turdhopper

WASHINGTON, DC- Congressman Jeff Landry (R, LA-03) released the following statement after he declined the President's invitation to the White House this morning: "I have respectfully declined the President's invitation to the White House today. I don't intend to spend my morning being lectured to by a President whose failed policies have put our children and grandchildren in a huge burden of debt. Over the past two years, President Obama and congressional Democrats have overseen the largest budget deficits in U.S. history. On top of that, the President's budget adds $1.3 trillion to our national debt every year for the next ten years - a budget that failed to muster a single vote in the Senate. Until the President produces a responsible deficit reduction plan, I'm not going to the White House to negotiate with myself. Our conference has put out for months where we would start the process. The President has done nothing, just like he has for the people of the Gulf Coast. For months, the Louisiana delegation has sent the President numerous requests to meet with him or his chief of staff concerning the de facto moratorium issued in the Gulf of Mexico, a de facto moratorium that has driven gas prices up and now threatens to derail economic recovery; the President hasn't even had the courtesy to write us a note back. I refuse to partake in his political grandstanding that will ultimately do nothing for debt reduction and job creation."

AMEN!!! This Dumbass was too stupid to legitimately get into Harvard Law or graduate! He was clearly sponsored by big Donors, most likely the Saudi Family of Saud. Obozo couldn’t write a book or a real sentence! so he had his best friend, the Pentagon Bomber and Avowed Guity terrorist, Bill Ayers create the work of Fiction, “DREAMS FROM MY DRUNKEN, POLYGAMOUS, ILLEGAL ALIEN, HARVARD FLUNKOUT
ALLEGED FATHER!” We now have the teleprompter Presidency, the guy is too Illiterate and empty suited to provide his own words and beliefs, he is a terrible Liar, its so easy to see thru his bullcrap and objective of destroying AMERICA!
May America wake up to this Enemy of America and Freedom!

To everyone in Louisiana:

Landry’s Congressional district is dissolved in 2012, and he is up against the insider scumbag Boustany to see who represents the new 3rd district.

Make sure this guy wins the primary!

My goodness gracious, this is a thing of utter beauty!

It’s like Benjamin Netanyahu holding Ozero down while Cong Landry smacks him around and then a certain tour bus rolls over him just to make sure he doesn’t get back up. All metaphorically speaking, of course. If this keeps up, more of our GOP politicians are going to find their balls.

“(This caustic remark comes from a Cajun who’ll debate any MSM idiot any day.)”

You and me both (part Canuk, so we share some ‘heritage’ ;)

I’d love to debate any talking head/politico/reporter in public. Closest I came was destroying the Center for Biological Diversity stooge D. Patterson in a BLM land use forum in 2000. Fun times ;) In fact, I wish there was some way for us to do so. Hell, make it a reality TV show. Millions would watch and even learn something. Trouble is, all the elite would think it beneath them and not do it. Look what happened to Blitzer!

Boustany is my rep. I’ll have to keep my eye on this race and plan on putting a Landry campaign sign below my Gadsden flag. Landry’s getting more headlines lately than Boustany, for sure.

Thank you Congressman Landry. You have show Obama the level of respect he deserves. He has screwed Louisiana so why give him the fig leaf of respectability?

FUBO!

I had the chance to meet this Tea Party Rep and he is
very honest and upfront on all topics.

The Soros Marxist Puppet could not handle 15 minutes of this ex military man's questions without running out of the room in tears.
