Crawford Chides State Democratic Party for Lurching to Change Subject from Healthcare

March 26, 2010 by Crawford for Congress

Rick Crawford today called Gabe Holmstrom’s PR stunt a blatant attempt to divert attention away from President Obama’s creation of a massive new entitlement program.  “Gabe is an incredibly clever political operative,” said Crawford.  “Changing the subject is something our politicians and their spinsters have been doing for far too long.  Instead of talking about the fact that every man, woman, and child in America each owes $184,000 as their share of the unfunded promises our politicians have made, Mr. Holmstrom wants to talk about the President’s birth certificate.”

“The sad fact is that Congressman Berry, who voted for and against this massive new entitlement program, wants to avoid addressing the long-term financial problem facing our country,” continued Crawford.  “While he talks about balancing the budget back home, he has enabled Speaker Pelosi and President Obama to push through a massive new entitlement program that will use taxpayer money to pay health insurance premiums for 32 million Americans.  We need elected officials who will stand up and say, ‘STOP!  Stop digging the hole deeper.’  We need an elected official who will stand up to say our government will not expand or create any new government programs until we restore fiscal soundness.  If we do not do this, our children and grandchildren will pay taxes that are double or triple what we pay today…and that is the best-case scenario.”

Also what is the legal authority for strikes? Assad is a brutal dictator. But Syria is a sovereign country.

Over the last two weeks, severe cold and damaging temperatures have caused significant hardship to homeowners and will likely cause significantly higher heating/repair bills for many across several states. Yesterday, I sent a letter to President Biden asking him to...

The NIH secretively spent Americans’ tax dollars to fund a notorious bioagent lab run by the Chinese Communist Party that is now suspected of causing the COVID-19 pandemic. We need to defund this dangerous CCP-operated facility permanently!
