Congressman Robert Pittenger has been in office a
couple of months and he is already betraying those of us who sent him
there. The representative of North
Carolina’s ninth district announced that he wants to establish a bipartisan
council to “address our nation’s fiscal issues.”
Washington, D.C. – Congressman Robert Pittenger (R-NC)

Democratic freshman members have been meeting over the past several weeks to
craft a statement of bipartisan principles to address the nation’s fiscal
issues, including Social Security and Medicare reform, tax reform, and
streamlining government, which will be outlined at the press conference. More
than 2 dozen House members of both parties are active participants.

I believe there has been plenty of bipartisanship in
Washington D.C. I would say $17 trillion
worth of it. And let’s not forget our
loss of liberty with that cooperation.
Congressman Pittenger, I voted for you specifically because
of your reputation. You were considered
a rabid partisan, and that’s what we expect.
You cannot compromise with these Democrats. These people do not negotiate in good
faith. You of all people should know
that by now.
