The Nashville Tea Party

By Kleinheider Posted on February 27, 2009 at 2:21 pm

Dru reports on the remarks of Ben Cunningham:

If they are not willing to fight for us we will turn them out. Jim Cooper, I had great hopes for him, his rhetoric was good, he said he was against deficit spending, but he caved. We’ve got to make sure that Lamar Alexander and Bob Corker fight for us. We don’t need a tepid response. We don’t need a maybe. We need them in there fighting so that we don’t lose our country. This budget is a fairy tale. This budget was the last straw. This budget shows trillion dollar deficits as far as you can see. There will come a point in time when taxpayers simply cannot bear the burden of debt. Barack Obama didn’t borrow this money. Nancy Pelosi didn’t borrow this money. They used our credit worthiness to borrow this money. At some point, the people who buy the debt will say, look, the American taxpayer has too much debt. They can’t pay all this debt. They are not going to buy our debt. We are going to be bankrupt. We have got to stop before we reach that point. We have got to have elected representatives who will fight for us.”
