Last week on my way home from work, I came upon one of Cantor’s town hall meetings at the Marriott Hotel in Innsbrook, which is just a few hundred yards from Cantor’s Innsbrook office, so I stopped to check it out. The huge meeting […]

Speaking on the Senate floor this morning, Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell again made the case that now is the time for Congress to tackle our out-of-control federal spending. “A few weeks ago, President Obama reportedly said that America doesn’t have a spending problem.
