Shelby: Gov't Spending is Bad – Except for Spending on NASA

Shelby: Government spending ‘out of control’, Birmingham Business Journal
“Alabama’s senior senator said the Obama administration is on pace to turn a $10 trillion deficit into $20 trillion during a speech before the Trussville Area Chamber of Commerce. Shelby, R-Tuscaloosa, reminded the audience he led the charge against federal bank and automaker bailouts. Shelby warned federal entitlements and deficit spending will ultimately hurt the nation’s economy. During the question and answer portion of the speech, the four-term senator said he will fight to keep funding for NASA’s Constellation program that the Obama administration has cut in its proposed 2011 budget. Huntsville is home to the project that Shelby helped save $600 million for last year.”
