John Boehner: Stimulus bill threatens Ohio jobs

Hot Topics

We recently marked the 100th day of President Barack Obama’s tenure in the White House. While I like the president personally, I disagree with his economic policies which, I believe, are reviving the era of big government that President Bill Clinton once said was “over” and are threatening the jobs of tens of thousands of Ohioans.

What Bushy boy didn't tear down obama is going to bankrupt.Seriously if any one can support any of these clowns in dc they just haven't read up on what they are commenting about.Our Government has handed the key to our nation to the communist chinese they could send us all into soup lines and chaos by simply not buying any more of our debt.But is that keeping obama and the dems from spending more and more? figure it out.

Hopeful future? Don’t understand? Interesting. Well, I understand: the CBO’s analysis; that foreign countries own 49% of our debt; and that total indebtedness for current liabilities and unfunded promises may reach $56.4 Trillion – or $483,000 per hhld. Plus, I understand that 50% of 2008’s budget was spent on SS, Medicare, Medicaid and net interest. That’s hardly hopeful. Yet you support spending a lot more. Then again, people who don’t pay and have their hands out the farthest usually do.

fiscally irresponsible and unsustainable" Sounds like the Bush Administration. Don't you people understand? The President has to spend, and why not on things that the country needs, because of everything Bush did wrong. The only way this economy will get better is if the President creates controlled, massive stimulation to counteract the damage Bush has done. It is better to "invest" in a hopeful future than to continue the irrationality of the Bush years.

Blast the messenger as you’d like, but the message is pretty clear: government spending is already out of control and burdening taxpayers and businesses even further to pay for additional “investments”, i.e. spending increases to support consumptive stimuli and costlier entitlement programs, is fiscally irresponsible and unsustainable.

Mr. Boehner: You and your Republican colleagues failed to stand up to the liberals when you held the reins of power! How can you possibly expect to oppose them from the minority position???

The huge number of American conservatives have absolutely NO representation in Washington D. C.!

Go get 'em Sanavation. John Boehner has done more to harm the American public than any other representative I know. Before he was Minority Party Leader he chaired the Education and Workforce Committee. Isn't that a hoot?

Mr. Boehner: For the past eight years you have driven America to the brink of fiscal and moral ruin. You had your chance and you blew it. Big Time. So why don't you get back on your golf course, lick your wounds, and let the adults do the job of reconstructing this nation. If you are a good boy, President Obama may give you one of the pens he uses to sign National Health Care or some other Bill which the country needs and which you have held up.
