Representative Mike Kelly, speaking on the House floor today, managed something very rare in the history of the institution he got a standing ovation. Applause is usually forbidden in the house, but Kellys blistering attack on regulatory red tape and Washingtons culture of control was apparently so powerful that several of his fellow house members couldnt resist showing their support, clapping, standing up and shouting USA! USA! USA!
Would you applaud this way? See Kellys speech below and decide for yourself:

He’s absolutely correct, but there’s always some jerk who thinks sticking his finger in someone’s business is going to somehow make him more electable. I say: Throw the bums out!

Words are merely sound waves.

That speech by Mike Kelly was awesome. Even though he only had 5 minutes he really drove the point’s home. Regulations are killing business, regulations restricting who a business can hire (affirmative action), regulations closing down coal fired electric generation plants, regulations causing increase in electric rates because the power company is not using enough “green energy” produced energy, and regulations concerning ethanol (which uses more fuel to produce 1 gallon of ethanol, wow what a savings oh, negative savings)

So thats what testicles look like on a republican. I just turned 49 and it has been a LONG time since I have seen any politician stand up to the the monstrosity that the federal government has mutated into. We need to figure out how to clone that man and replace the the cowering wimps that always seem to get elected.
