Pignanelli & Webb: Leaders with Utah ties face challenges of renewal
6 comments | Read story
This is the type of endless nonsensical rhetoric that has brought this country to the brink of destruction. The problem is exactly that, passing another law and creating another project. It is the antithesis of efficient and constitutional government.
This is exactly why Jason beat the incumbent who had a history of "passing more bills and adding more projects", which has contributed to this countries economic, political, social, and Constitutional demise.
How about some new political commentators with real vision of what new leadership must do to stop the freedom robbing governmental monster from consuming everything and everyone with their bills and projects.
How about something new and radical like, "government exists at all but to protect rights and liberty." Oh, I forgot, that's what Jefferson suggested. Or how about, government must only adopt essential programs that operate at maximum efficiency. Oh I forgot that is what JFK proposed before he was assassinated. They only sound like new ideas because they have been buried for so long. They are unrecognizable to elitists.
If Chaffetz doesn't help voters with their problems, it doesn't matter what else he does, they'll look for and elect someone who will provide constituent services!
Until he passes a bill (how about something that cuts back gov't regulation, for example), I won't buy all the hype.
With Utah 2008 SB 81, we need to make sure that, like SB 81 requires, that it is done correctly. There are several locations around the county that are getting better.
Perhaps CNN, ABC and Fox that are covering Chaffetz after all, are not covering the stuff he is actually doing.

We don't need Chaffetz bring home pork-barrel spending. The best way for him to deliver is to tell local government leaders to grow up and stop feeding at the federal trough!
Chaffetz needs to continue to carry the torch pointing our wasteful spending by statist politicians on both sides of the aisle.
