Participating in a radio Town Hall sponsored by the Ohio Christian Alliance, Congressman John Boehner (R-West Chester) expressed Ohioans frustration with Democrats’ jobs-killing agenda that includes a so-called “stimulus,” a “cap and trade” energy plan, and a massive government takeover of health care. In recent days, Congressman Boehner has reminded Americans of Republican efforts to offer better solutions to create jobs and reform our health care system.

Boehner on the American People Speaking Out Against Government-Run Health Care
“If we keep the American people engaged in this fight with us we can win. This health care bill should have passed in June. If they had the votes they would have passed it in July. If they had the votes they would have passed it in September, and trust me if they would have had the votes this week, they would have passed it this week. If we keep the American people engaged, we can stop this bill from becoming law.”
Boehner on Democrats Refusal to Work on Real Bipartisan Health Care Reform
“There has not been an opportunity to discuss this at the White House, there has not been an opportunity to discuss this at the leadership level, and frankly, I don’t know that any of our members have been in a serious conversation with Democrats. They have a 40 vote majority in the House, they think they can do it alone, and they’re going to try to.”

The political scene at this point is beyond anything I have seen in my 50 some years. I would call it a "Sotto Governo" meaning sub government. The Czars appointed by President Obama are actually in a management mode from my perspective. Making many changes that most of us would not approve. I fully support Congressman Boehner in any effort to stop the healthcare reform and the process these sub government people are working. Mr. Congressman, tell them NO and expose them for what they are. Marxists. I want smaller government and a stronger America! I don't support government control over our lives to the extent it appears we are heading. Thank you, Mr. Congressman for standing up to them.

Do we have any Republicans that know why the Congress is now dominated by the Democratic Party? Or will the next election take place before they catch on?
It takes more than talk!
