Today, following news that Gov. Nikki Haley has named Rep. Tim Scott to succeed Sen. Jim DeMint in the United State Senate representing South Carolina, Jenny Beth Martin of the Tea Party Patriots released the following statement:
“This is a positive step for the Tea Party Patriots and our principles of fiscal responsibility, constitutionally limited government, and free markets. Tim Scott has taken our core values seriously in the House and we have every reason to expect similar, principled behavior in the Senate.”
I looked at his voting record in the House. It is good enough.
What we need is someone who can bring some heat to Harry Reid. Nobody’s done that.
And, we do not need any more debt. There will be over 2 trillion dollars of revenue. If that isn’t enough to run a government, then let the government shut down until Congress grows up and learns to live within the means of the economy.
No more debt. Not for any reason.
This was the first place I saw the news about the appointment.
Glad to read he has an o.k. voting record.
Hope that Senator Scott is stouthearted for our Constitution, and stands in the breech to help defend our historic American liberties.
I like the pick, Tim Scott posted the ten commandments outside the county council chambers. However, he lacks strong military service like the great Lt. Col. Allen West.
The question is, is he on our side or not….
We’re going to find out real soon. If he’s not on the Senate floor slapping Harry Reid around right away, then he’s just another go-along-to-get-along politician.
Let’s see what he brings into the ring.
Silly baggers. You’ve destroyed the republican party, what is next? America?
Go away
No, I don’t think so. Silly baggers are not the only people with a voice. Normal people have them as well.
