Since ObamaBinBiden wants to continue to push the Bi-Partisanship Disease angle, where are the Republicans reminding folks that the Bi-Partisanship is DEMOCRATS JOINING WITH REPUBLICANS AGAINST THE SPENDING?!?!? Again, the Facts/Truth you'll only get here at RedState! I sure hope the Congress-critters (rather than staff) actually comes back and reviews these things once they’ve been put forth in the Congress-critters names… just sayin… but to the point….

Bi-Partisan support forms AGAINST ObamaBinBiden OVER-SPENDING…. As Blue-Dogs (and even non-Doggies on the Democrat side) FINALLY begin to speak out (see: Politico: Moderates uneasy with Obama plan)….

It is ALL Emergency spending and therefore EXEMPT! <b>WARNING: SARCASM</b> even though I thought it be obvious, some Obama voters might think I was serious so I thought I should put the disclaimer... Seriously though.... This is the empty-headed mindset of those that would support, or just looking for any reason/excuse, to explain away the obvious and out-and-out LIE Obama told. Not like this was/is his only Lie. Getting it all out AROUND the MSM which covers for ObamaBinBiden and his merry gang of Reds is our challenge.

I think that it behooves the party, and the American people, to get you and your message out there as much as possible. I agree with the poster above who says you should try to get on as many of the Sunday morning talk shows as possible so that you can continue to spread your message. Kudos to you.

Thank you for not backing down to the tsunami of pacifists who would rather sell their own souls to the devil than fight for liberty.

Liberals, financially jaded, fiscally cruel. Well put Doctor Broun. I am so thankful you are our congressman here in Georgia. This is creeping socialism and it is done intentionally, not out of ignorance. Keep sounding those alarms, do not let up. Just as you did during last fall's bailout debate. Had Sen. McCain continued to give voice as you did, he would be president today: “This is a huge cow patty with a piece of marshmallow stuck in the middle of it and I am not going to eat that cow patty.” —Representative Paul Broun “Are liberals so fiscally jaded that that the “T” in trillion no longer sounds alarms?”

This is not applicable just to Obama but to the state and federal governments at all levels. If you really care about this country, your rallying cry should b: words and actions. And live by those words yourselves. Don't get me wrong. I know you and other members of the Congressional minority are trying but every day, you're under assault. You're called names and belittled in a hundred different ways. It would be easy to eventually cave to such a prolonged assault but, sir, the country depends on you standing up and on conservative principles and positions, not giving in to the accusations of obstructionism and hyper-partisanship. I noted somewhere else on this site that hyper-partisan is the stupidest made up word I've ever heard. It's used as an insult if you don't give up your principles to go along to get along. My answer to that insult is: Yeah? So what? At least I stand firm on my principles and beliefs. a chasm as deep and wide as the Grand Canyon.
