Congressman Andy Harris on the State of Union

WASHINGTON, DC: Congressman Andy Harris, M.D. (MD-01) released the following statement in response to President Obama’s State of the Union tonight:

“Seven years ago, during his first address to a joint session of Congress, President Obama made several empty promises to hardworking Americans across this country. He promised that incomes would increase – but they have decreased. He promised that the price of health care would go down – but health care costs have skyrocketed, while quality and access to care have declined. He promised that the federal debt would decrease – but the debt has increased by 80%, placing an unconscionable financial burden on future generations to come. President Obama promised Americans security, but Americans are worried.

“Nothing in the President’s rhetoric tonight is going to make Americans feel secure or convince Americans that he kept his promises. Not today and not in the future. Republicans in the House, led by Speaker Ryan, will continue to focus on securing our nation, promoting job growth, fixing our broken and expensive health care system, and improving the economy.”

To Jim Ireton and Chuck Cook, You will NOT come to SBYNews and attempt to bash Congressman Harris. I have and will continue to reject, (if not spam) your comments. Start your own Blog if you want to lie.

Ireton and Cook and their deluded minions have to do what they do, because it's in the Democratic Party playbook.
Ireton stands not a chance in a million of successfully challenging Harris or any other elected political leader worth spit. For his donors, it's money down the toilet.
