GOP Weekly Address 2/18/1012

In the Republican weekly address, House Republican Conference Vice-Chairwoman Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R-WA) slams President Obama’s budget. “Instead of leading the effort to bring down our debt and make tough choices, the president is proposing that we spend more and more,” she said. “All of his wasteful spending puts us deeper in debt to China. All of his tax hikes would destroy jobs and make it tougher to compete with China. If we keep on going like this, the consequences will be devastating. As we’ve learned from Greece and the European Union, no country can escape the cost of big government policies forever. The president’s budget isn’t a blueprint for America. It’s a roadmap to Greece.”
