Rep. Mike Kelly - Speech (Video)

It's very simple: Government regulation is strangling private business.

Government regulators have their boot on the throat of job creators.

I've witnessed the insanity.

It's as if the federal government wants to hinder the private sector rather than help it thrive. It appears the agenda is to kill jobs.

What I've seen federal government regulators do over the past two years has been jaw-droppingly shocking.

It makes absolutely no sense to me.

It's frustrating beyond belief.

Thank you, Rep. Mike Kelly of Pennsylvania, for speaking out against the oppression.




Of course, I expect some regulation, but what I've experienced is unbelievable behavior, including outright lying, on the part of federal government regulators.

It has to stop.

Rep. Kelly's voting record is not in sync with his rant.

Very frustrating.

Yes, that's frustrating.

Words are empty if not backed up by actions.

I know how all kinds of stuff can be tucked into amendments.

Is it possible that Kelly would have an explanation for his inconsistency?

I hope so.

If not, and he is truly pro-Big Government, maybe Kelly has finally seen the light and he will quit supporting government oppression of the American people.

We have a similar Tea Party Congressman in the district where I live who has voted contrary to his stated beliefs.

I don't think it's a matter that he is "pro-Big Government." I think it's a matter of not being able to translate an over-arching philosophy into particular concrete action.

Once in Washington these guys begin to buy into the prevailing hype that every action they take is of the utmost importance, critical to the welfare of the population. Thus, they hesitate to upset the apple cart too much.

I imagine they are also under intense pressure by senior party politicians to play ball, especially in certain issues, or be shunned to the back bench, i.e., be denied committee assignments, influence and power.

The system is as much the problem as the individual. The only solution is to replace the old guard politicians completely, if possible.

The representatives have to realize why the people sent them to Washington and what's expected of them.

That's what's so refreshing about my governor, Scott Walker.

He actually did what he said he would do.

Obviously, it's not easy.
