Just give me your best estimate.
Answer
House Republicans now have three big strikes against them that prove their rhetoric on fiscal responsibility is nothing but gross hypocrisy: taxpayer money for pet projects, office budgets for self promotion and personal financial failure. The latest House Republicans rhetoric on fiscal responsibility rings hallow.
1. Cost-Cutters, Except When the Spending Is Back Home. âFreshman House Republicans who rode a wave of voter discontent into office last year vowed to stop out-of-control spending, but that has not stopped several of them from quietly trying to funnel millions of federal dollars into projects back home.â [NY Times, 7/20/11]
-Tea Partiers Against Deal Gain From District Spending. âSixty House members backed by the Tea Party, whose opposition to federal spending helped bring on an impasse over raising the U.S. debt ceiling, represent districts that last year received $43 billion in government contracts.â [Bloomberg News, 7/29/11]
-Freshman Republicans Lobby Federal Agencies For Millions Amid Spending Critiques. [Huffington Post, 7/5/11]
2. Fervent Budget-Cutters Still Spend on Mass Communication. âThey are among the Houseâs fervent budget-cutters: 13 legislators who have said they wonât raise the debt ceiling without a promise to slash government spending. But these 13 also hold another designation. [â¦] Each spent more than $50,000 on these communications, more than six times the average in Congress. In most cases, the mailings carried smiling pictures of the congressmen and messages about their work on the Hill.â [Washington Post, 7/15/11]
Republican Freshmen Spend Big Bucks on Cars, PR. âThey rode into Washington on an anti-spending wave, but some House Republican freshmen are already enjoying one of the perks of incumbency, spending their office budgets on everything from $1,000-a-month car leases to pricey online advertising contracts. At least 15 GOP freshmen have shelled out tens of thousands of dollars of taxpayer money on mass communication â or franking â designed to boost their exposure back home, even as they call for budget cuts and pared-back government spending, according to quarterly disbursement reports released by the House.â [Politico, 6/8/11]
3. Some Republican Freshmen in Congress Hold Major Debt, Disclosure Forms Show. âMembers of the firebrand class of Republican freshmen on Capitol Hill â elected on a pledge to attack the U.S. debt problem â have, in some cases, accumulated tens of thousands of dollars in personal debt.â [Washington Post, 6/15/11]
Some GOP Members Hit Own Debt Limit: Members Have Faced Liens, Foreclosures. âSome Republicans in Congress who have railed against raising the debt ceiling have previously struggled to manage their own finances. Among the group of lawmakers who have resisted or rejected Speaker John Boehnerâs (R-Ohio) push to pair spending cuts with a debt limit increase are individuals who have declared bankruptcy, run up hundreds of thousands of dollars in credit card debt, had their homes foreclosed on and failed to pay their taxes, a Roll Call analysis of public records and published reports shows.â [Roll Call, 8/1/11]
