Warren Buffet says we're fighting an economic war and a Republican Congressman admits the Republican goals have NOTHING to do with helping the country and their only goal is to help themselves win the next election.....even at the expense of the country:
Quote from Patrick McHenry“We will lose on legislation. But we will win the message war every day, and every week, until November 2010,” said Rep. Patrick McHenry, R-N.C., an outspoken conservative who has participated on the GOP message teams. “Our goal is to bring down approval numbers for [Speaker Nancy] Pelosi and for House Democrats. That will take repetition. This is a marathon, not a sprint.”
Quote from Warren Buffet:
"Job one is to win the economic war. Job two is to win the economic war and Job 3 ... And you can’t expect people to unite behind you if you’re trying to jam a whole bunch of things down their throats. So I would absolutely say, for the interim until we get this one solved, I would not be pushing a lot of things that, that you know are contentious"
