House Republicans Say No To Pork Plan

// January 29th, 2009 // 2 Comments » // ECONOMY

For sometime I have been considering leaving the Republican party. As Obama mania grows throughout the country I have feared that the Republicans would continue to forsake conservative values and choose popularity over principle.

After hearing the news that not a single Republican voted for the Obama pork plan I have reconsidered leaving the party…for now. This was the right thing to do! This is no stimulus. The only thing it stimulates is the coffers of the democrat’s, lobbyists and special interests. This plan does nothing for you or me. It’s irresponsible and insulting.

I hope the GOP continues to do the right thing. While I am optimistic that they may have finally come to their senses, I will continue to watch their actions throughout Obama’s term.

Though Obama’s plan will ultimately get passed after a Senate vote, the finger cannot be pointed at the House Republicans when this thing fails.

Great Job House Republicans. I hope the GOPĀ  Senate follows suit.
