Weekly Republican Address 4/2/11: Speaker Boehner on Cutting Spending & Creating Jobs
Delivering the Weekly Republican Address, House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) discusses the new House majority's efforts to cut spending and tackle the big challenges facing job creation in America. In the address, Boehner, a former small business owner, talks about how the spending binge in Washington is creating uncertainty for private-sector job creators and holding our economy back. He reiterates Republicans' commitment to fighting for the largest spending cuts possible, and says it's important to resolve last year's budget mess so we can tackle the bigger challenges facing job creation. Those challenges include the job-crushing $1.5 trillion tax hike in President Obama's budget for next year, and his request for an increase in the national debt limit without a commitment to ending runaway spending.

Is America really broke? Michael Moore (and others) tells us that there are oceans of cash being hoarded by the wealthy. But Iowahawk (iowahawk.typepad.com) did a little addition, and armed with these statistics Bill and the 'Hawk blow a hole in the "hoarding" lie big enough to fit a documentary filmmaker through.
