But I (White House) Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking for (Understatement)

Mike Pence, Chair, House Republican Caucus:

But I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For

“The White House has announced a total of 172 trips outside Washington, D.C., in which administration officials have discussed the stimulus package and its economic impact in the year and a half since the package was signed.” (Wall Street Journal, 7/21/2010)

Unemployment Rate: 9.5% (BLS, June 2010)

Taxpayers could save a lot of money if someone would ground Obama and his Administration from taking Air Force planes. They are going to wear out our VIP fleet at this rate. Who is doing the job in DC with them gone -- on second thought it might be cheaper to never have any of them in DC to spend our tax dollars. All that talk by Obama and the members of his Administration and the Stimulus is still as much of failure today as it would have been without all the trips.

You grow the economy by cutting taxes but NO this Administration wants to allow the Bush Tax Cuts to expire and all of us be taxed at higher levels. The audacity of them to say that the Republicans wanted the tax cuts to expire in ten years when, in fact, it was the threat of a Democrat filibuster that kept them becoming permanent. Republicans did not have 60 seats in the Senate at that time. In fact, it was a 50/50 Senate when President Bush took office.

Even the fact that President Bush was able to get all these tax cuts was minor miracle in itself with the Senate evenly divided. It shows what can be done when you have a President without an ego versus the narcissist who is President today and loves nothing better than to continually slam Republicans. Worst atmosphere maybe ever in the Congress as the Democrats ram their legislation through with having such large numbers.
