Conaway: President Obama Lays Out Failed Plans for His Last Year

 

Washington  –  Tonight, President Obama delivered his final State of the Union Address to a Joint Session of Congress. Congressman Mike Conaway released the following statement in response to the President’s address:

“Unsurprisingly, President Obama’s vision of 'change' for the last year of his failed presidency is new regulations, costly social programs, and more big government policies infringing on every aspect of our lives. The President is doing everything he can to pad his inadequate ‘legacy’ through his last acts this year. Throughout his speech tonight and his actions over the last seven years, his blatant disregard for our Constitution is crystal clear.  It is absolutely apparent that he has no desire to act on behalf of the American people- he would much rather act unilaterally, without any concern for the millions of lives he is negatively impacting.

“It is my hope that Congress will band together to prevent the President from causing further irreparable harm to our nation. Soon, we will vote to override the President’s veto on legislation to repeal Obamacare and completely defund Planned Parenthood. This vote will give the American people a clear sight into those who support the President, and those who are taking a stand against our failing health insurance system and the illegal harvest and sale of fetal tissue by Planned Parenthood.

“The President’s empty rhetoric is simply a sign that he is flailing for relevancy in his last year in office. Unfortunately for the President, he will be remembered instead for one of the slowest economic recoveries in history, his failed foreign policies that have left our nation more vulnerable, and the disastrous implementation of a terrible healthcare system.”

Taking a peak at your finances Mike you must have done great while President Obama has been in office. While laughing all the way to the bank, as the stock market went through the roof, you feed your constituents a package of malarkey.

The only failed effort here is conway's . He has tried so hard to discredit the president and people still like him . His legacy will live forever. Just because conway was elected by a small minority in a gerrymandered district doesn't mean that he is right on anything . Wait until the bills start coming in for the expenses that the state government has run up during the oil boom . That bubble is about to burst , good thing the economy is humming along , otherwise things would really look bad . I remember when reagen trashed the oil field the last time , there was no help for anyone from anyone , jobs were hard to find , there was no offer of assistance for finding work or student financial aid . How lucky we are that the democrats have put into place many of the programs that will help the jobless . If it were up to the republicans no one would receive any assistance ! Sadly the people who will benefit the most from the se programs will continue to bad mouth the democrats and president Barrack Obama
