Joe Wilson

Congressman Joe Wilson (R-SC) issued the following statement today after Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Director Peter Orszag announced that the White House had revised their deficit numbers to add an additional $90 billion in deficits for Fiscal Year 2009 and 2010. The new estimates project a $1.841 trillion and $1.258 trillion deficit for 2009 and 2010 respectively.

“While this administration may try to blame this mounting debt on technical revisions or difficult economic times, it’s quite clear that these massive deficits are being created on their watch and through their big government policies that borrow too much, spend too much, and tax too much. House Republicans have continued to offer better solutions that will rein in deficits and get our economy back on track. We have brought to the table proven strategies to provide relief for American families and small businesses to help them grow our economy and create jobs. I hope this Administration and their Democrat allies in Congress will stop the Washington borrowing and spending spree and stand with Republicans to restore some fiscal sanity.”

   I have been upset that Obama goes from town to town making his bid for “health care reform”. SPENDING taxpayer money to flit around the US (not to mention his little jaunts overseas, and noone has even questioned this wasteful spending. Why can’t he make his little spiels on the TV? Why has there been no outcry about the vacationthat “queen michelle” andf gamily took when most Americans cant take a weekend trip. I am outraged that he is acting as though he is king

   Thank you for saying what I wanted to say last night during our President speech.

   I was listening to Hannity this afternoon and he mentioned that you may be having some problems in you up coming campaign. I will send a check to help, It may only buy a few cups of coffee but it comes from one proud American to
   some one that has given me some hope for my country.

   Sincerely

   Jess Kennow

   PS I couldn’t get on your other web site (crashed) so I e-mailed my Congressman Tom Petri (Wisconsin) to thank you.

   Dear Mr. Wilson:
   I fully support you in your true remark about Obama’s speech. Lie is lie, and the future of this Great Country is more important than etiquette.
   Sincerely,
