Sam Aanestad's Radio Advertisement

Editor's Note: On KNCO, I heard this advertisement from Sam Aanestad for Congress. I could not agree with you more Sam...we must live within our means and stop excessive government spending!
"Did you know you're $49,000 in debt? So are each of your kids and grandkids. That's because Congress has run up a $16 trillion national debt, and we're the ones stuck paying for it.

"I'm Sam Aanestad, and I'm running for Congress to stop this spending. I oppose adding even one more dollar in new debt. We need to stop spending.

"Now I know some disagree. One of my opponents [Doug LaMalfa] has taken millions of dollars in taxpayer-funded farm subsidies. He's running for Congress to protect the $200 billion farm welfare program.

"The problem is we can't afford it. Our kids and grandkids will be stuck paying the bill for the millions he's taken from the taxpayers. It's time we say no to government debt.

"I'm Sam Aanestad, and I approve this message paid for by Sam Aanestad for Congress because I am serious about ending government debt. To find out more, please visit SamAanestad.com.
We have discussed the $4.7 million in farm subsidies taken by LaMalfa in detail here and here.

LaMalfa's response is that he will not give up the subsidies to become a Congressman.

Here is the long and the short of Aanestad vs. LaMalfa.

If you want a conservative in Congress who will vote 10 out of 10 times with Congressman McClintock and the other fiscal hawks, Aanestad is your guy. If you want a consummate campaigner who will vote with the Republican leadership and tow the Republican line 10 out of 10 times like Wally Herger, vote for the corporate welfare recipient.

It is just that simple.
