Video: Pledging to Limit the Government’s Job Description

By Rocky Vega

01/12/10 Stockholm, Sweden – This video seems to be gaining popularity online… though it probably doesn’t benefit much from the overly feel-good music thumping in the background.

* “…to inform Congress that just like me they do not have an unlimited budget.”

* “…to remember that wanting to keep your own money isn’t greed and spending other people’s money isn’t compassion.”

* “…to limit the government’s job description.”

This video came to our attention via The Daily Bail, and you can view the clip below:
