Rick Santelli of CNBC sounds off about Obama’s mortgage bailout plan. Don’t miss this:

Californians already suffer under the highest tax rates in the nation, so adding additional burdens doesn’t make [...]
Ron Paul discusses the legislative process and substance of the stimulus bill:
Once in office politicians of all stripes often fail to advocate the policies they so fervently trumpeted while on the stump. The deceivers keep getting away with the bait and switch routine because many Americans have short memories, and every election cycle produces a new crop of young people kindling their [...]

House Minority Leader John Boehner reacts to voting blind on the stimulus bill:
No matter who you listen to, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Plan is a very important piece of legislation. President Obama and most fellow Democrats couch the bill’s significance in apocalyptic terms. Speaking recently at George Mason University, Obama declared, “Every day we wait [...]
