The Dodd-Frank recession has been ongoing for almost two years. There are fears of a double dip recession but since we really haven’t climbed out of the current one, these fears are premature.

The 2008-2009 Dodd-Frank Recession shrank United States Gross Domestic Product (GDP) by -10.9%. The policies of the Bush and Obama administrations further worsened the economy as unemployment hovers just below 10%.

Giffords stated the Act “will provide security for seniors, guarantee access to health insurance coverage for the uninsured and make health care affordable for the middle class . . .” and that the Act will “[i]mprove Medicare for 135,000 beneficiaries . . .” What Giffords did not tell her constituents is 279,833 Arizona seniors will lose their Medicare Advantage coverage because Giffords voted to gut Medicare funding by $500 billion. Giffords cannot gut Medicare and simultaneously improve it.

March 21, 2010, Health Care Reform passed the House: a Democrat controlled Congress trampled on the Constitutional rights of all Americans, moving America one step closer to the tyranny of a progressive-socialist political system. The majority of Democrats in the House voted for the bill, a Senate bill that Representatives said they could not stomach: [...]

Giffords is a Nancy Pelosi clone: a radical far left liberal who voted the way Nancy Pelosi wanted her to vote. Let’s review the facts. The so-called $787 billion “Stimulus Bill,” which not one member of [...]
