Tim Kaine vs. Eric Cantor on House Passage of Obama's Budget

Thursday, April 2, 2009


First, here's DNC Chairman Tim Kaine:
"I am pleased to offer my congratulations to House Democrats today on the passage of the President's budget - a plan to help turn our economy around by slashing the deficit in half, making health care more affordable, reducing our dependence on foreign oil and investing in education," said Kaine. "This vote today is a victory not only for this generation of Americans, but generations to come."

"Unfortunately, the unanimous vote by the House Republicans against the budget does not represent the principle of loyal opposition upon which this country was founded, but opposition purely for political gain. While Republicans continue to cling to the failed policies of the past that created the current economic crisis, President Obama and Democrats have taken bold steps to restore stability and prosperity for all Americans. Today's vote affirms that the Party of No is more interested in playing politics than working with the Democrats and the President to solve our nation's problems on a bipartisan basis."
Next, speaking of the "Party of No," click here for video of Eric Cantor making absolutely no sense whatsoever as he blabbers on about Republican voodoo/trickle down economics. Perhaps you missed it, Rep. Cantor, but we tried it your way the past 8 years and are now suffering the consequences. Also, perhaps you might recall that one definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
