Alex Mooney, rep fro WV is so concerned about the debt we will be leaving our children by raising

the corporate tax rate

This was from the hearing today with Powell and Yellen among other things about raising the debt ceiling

The hypocrisy of the republicans is a joke. They could care less about the future of our children

Yellen made it very clear that the corporations are doing quite well, and need to contribute their fair share

Who moved to West Virginia because he couldn't get elected dog catcher back home.

His first election was close as WV was turning Republican, but he's won big since then. But West Virginia is losing a congressional seat, so we really hope he loses to one of the other incumbents. They aren't quite so bad - one of them even voted for Obamacare!

Hubris to say the least.. It's all about the debt when dems are in power and how many tax breaks they can give to corporations when they are in power..
