GOP Rep. Burchett: Republicans Are ‘Allegedly in Control and We’re Spending Money Just Like They Are’

‘We’ve got to do better’

(Via RealClearPolitics)

EXCERPT:

BURCHETT: “Let's see. FAA reauthorization, I voted against that. It adds $58 million to the federal deficit. Again, folks, we have gotten -- we're $35 trillion in debt. We had a trillion every 100 days. And yet, we still -- we're allegedly in control, and we're spending money just like they are. We got to do better. Anyway, there were some good things in there that I like, but still the spending is just out of control. And that's, of course, more federal employees, of course, because they need to do the job more efficient, all that, but it's just -- it's just too much. We've got to -- we -- we can do better, and I know we should do better. So we'll keep working on it. Thank you all so much for sending me here.”
