The rich get richer while the poor get poorer—thanks to DeLauro: “Federal campaign records reveal a self-dealing relationship between a senior Democratic Connecticut congresswoman and her husband’s political consulting firm. In the last four congressional election cycles, the campaign committee for Rep. Rosa L. DeLauro, Friends of Rosa DeLauro, transferred $1.2 million to the Democratic Congressio
nal Campaign Committee—which in the same period paid $1.9 million to Greenberg Quinlan Rosner Research for polling and other services, according to Federal Election Commission ( FEC) filings. STANLEY B. GREENBERG, founding partner of GQRR, IS DELAURO’S HUSBAND of 33 years…’It doesn’t look good, and, quite frankly, IT SMELLS ROTTEN,’ said attorney Hans A. von Spakovsky, who leads the Civil Justice Reform Initiative at the Heritage Foundation. DeLauro…is in the TOP 10 PERCENT of the WEALTHIEST members of Congress …[Capital University Law Prof. Bradley A.] Smith said, “It’s not just a conflict of interest, it just looks bad. It looks like SHE’S RAISING MONEY AND GIVING IT TO HERSELF.” No kidding! That explains how, during the current recession, HER PERSONAL WEALTH ballooned from a “mere” $5 million to nearly $17 MILLION! Rosa DeLauro has established a persona of being a “champion of the safety net”—while IN REALITY being a champion of amassing great wealth for herself and her husband during her tenure in office. HOW LONG ARE VOTERS GOING TO KEEP SUPPORTING THIS BULLSH_T!? http://www.humanevents.com/article.php?id=46588&photo=images%2Flibrary%2Frosa.jpg

ReplyDeleteThe Democratic Party’s Congressional Progressive Caucus—founded by Rosa DELAURO—ADVOCATES an INCREASE in WELFARE SPENDING of your tax dollars by the federal government—a welfare program already costing over $400 BILLION per year. Most Americans agree that a strong safety net is essential for those who suffer poverty through no fault of their own. Most Americans also believe in self-responsibility. So does our ever-expanding, socialist-leaning welfare state promote self-reliance, while it assists the poor? Well, how would DeLauro really know—SINCE HER PERSONAL WEALTH IS NEARLY SEVENTEEN MILLION DOLLARS??!! So if she’s wasting YOUR tax dollars on ineffective programs, it’s certainly not going to put a dent her pocketbook—WHILE SHE EMPTIES YOURS. Instead, listen to someone who’s been through the system, and can speak first-hand how our growing government-dependency mentality in Washington is destroying families and entire communities:
ReplyDeleteUncle Sam's Plantation: How Big Government Enslaves America's Poor and What We Can Do About It, Revised and Updated Edition (2010) by Star Parker
Uncle Sam’s Plantation is an incisive look at how government programs—endorsed by DeLauro—manipulate , control, and ultimately devastate the lives of the poor—and what Americans must do to stop it. Once a hustler and welfare addict, who was chewed up and spit out by the ruthless welfare system, Star Parker sheds much needed light on the bungled bureaucratic attempts to end poverty and reveals the insidious DECEPTIONS perpetrated by SELF-SERVING POLITICIANS—LIKE MULTI-MILLIONAIRE DELAURO. Star Parker’s important new book helps advance the understanding—critical for all Americans—that prosperity does not come from government and politics—but results from men and women of character and high moral fiber living and working in freedom—guided by the eternal truth of responsibility. http://www.amazon.com/Uncle-Sams-Plantation-Government-Enslaves/dp/1595552235

“Do you want to see what a 21st century ECONOMIC DEPRESSION looks like? Just LOOK AT GREECE. Once upon a time, the Greek economy was thriving; the Greek government was borrowing money like there was no tomorrow and Greek citizens were thoroughly enjoying the bubble of false prosperity that all that debt created. Those that WARNED that GREECE was headed for a FINANCIAL COLLAPSE were laughed at and were called ‘doom and gloomers’—WELL, NOBODY IS LAUGHING NOW.” And in the USA, because of self-serving, “professional” politicians who PROMOTE wasteful, Big-Government spending—like Rosa DeLauro does—WE’RE HEADED DOWN THE SAME PATH as Greece. And Ireland. And Italy. And Spain……. http://www.mrconservative.com/2012/02/2191-obama-economic-depression/
ReplyDelete“Grote & Weigel has been saved, just days before it was scheduled to close, was greeted favorably by hot dog enthusiasts across Connecticut.

There was no government bailout ...in fact, BECAUSE the government did NOT intervene, Grote & Weigel survived. The free market system prevailed.” I don’t know what’s more exciting, the fact that a legendary company has survived—or that Rosa “DeSpenda” DeLauro won’t be standing at a news conference claiming credit for its survival. http://ctwatchdog.com/finance/lovallos-cttalking-grote-weigel-saved-without-govt
ReplyDelete“Imagine this family budget: Last year, you earned $24,700. But you spent $37,900, incurring $13,300 in debt, and you were already $153,500 in debt. So you say, ‘I promise I’ll spend $300 less this year!’ Anyone can see that your cutback is pathetic and that you need to spend MUCH less—Yet if you add eight zeroes—that’s America’s budget!” Rosa DeLauro has been a major supporter of this kind of out-of-control spending for TWENTY YEARS—while her own personal wealth has ballooned to nearly $17 MILLION. How much has this DeLauro-endorsed, wasteful government spending increased YOUR personal wealth??? http://reason.com/archives/2012/02/23/politicians-fiddle-while-fiscal-crisis-l
ReplyDeleteWednesday Obama signed the Social Security tax cut extension. He himself described this as the—“CENTERPIECE”—of his “jobs plan” unveiled last September—a plan heavily endorsed by Rosa DeLauro. So, what are YOU, the working voter, going to do with your extra –$14 per week!—which is how much this cut amounts to for the average worker! (Keep in mind that DeLauro is Ranking member of the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Labor et al…)

"The White House is proposing to force retired and active duty military families to pay drastically more for health care as part of a plan to reduce costs and potentially force service members into the Obamacare health system, according to the Washington Free Beacon.
This while Michelle Obama and Dr. Jill Biden traverse their country to promote their “Joining Forces” campaign to assist military families, an effort that has helped Michelle remake her image into that of a red-white-and-blue backer of the military.[also contrasts with DeLauro's statements on her website] [Note that this blog does not auto-convert URL addresses into links, so copy/paste the address into your browser.] http://www.whitehousedossier.com/2012/02/28/white-house-assails-military-benefits/

ReplyDeleteAnother budget-busting agency that belongs on the chopping block: “more bad news from the Federal Housing Administration (FHA), which is taking riskier positions in real estate lending just as the rest of the country is looking to reduce indebtedness. Wharton School real estate finance professor Joseph Gyourko warned in a recent study that the FHA, the world’s largest insurer of mortgages, is shaping up as the next likely target for a bailout… In November the Obama administration even managed to walk back one of the few things the FHA has done right in recent years: allowing its expanded conforming-loan limit for “high-cost areas” to lapse… That puts the government in the odd position of providing a housing subsidy to people living in $1 million homes.… In December the National Association of Realtors (NAR) ended another charade by conceding it had overstated real estate sales for the period from 2007 through 2010. In fact, more than 3 million existing home sales that users of NAR data (including much of the popular press) had been counting never actually happened. For 2010 alone, sales were overstated by nearly 15 percent: the realtors had claimed $100 billion in phantom transactions….Tthe assorted agencies of the Department of Housing and Urban Development—of which FHA is just one mischief maker—have created trillions of dollars’ worth of false credit, false wealth, and false sales.” http://reason.com/archives/2012/02/27/washingtons-lousy-real-estate-portfolio
