McIntyre gets failing grade from Club for Growth

Rep. Mike McIntyre wants voters to think he is Conservative - but the Conservative "Club for Growth" thinks otherwise. The just released their 2007 Congressional Scorecard and Mike scored a dismal 10%. Seems like I once got 10% correct on a test for spelling my name right. Now with a difficult to spell like McIntyre's opponent, the truly conservative Will Breazeale, 10% might be low. The people of the 7th District of North carolina deserve better than a 10% conservative.

Club for Growth Releases 2007 Congressional Scorecard

Washington -
Today, the Club for Growth released its 2007 annual scorecard, awarding the
Defender of Economic Freedom award to six senators and forty-nine
representatives who scored a 90 or above on the Club's scorecard (see
here).


"These top-scoring members of Congress are staunch defenders
of American taxpayers," said Club for Growth President Pat Toomey. "Their votes
are critical to lowering taxes, cutting wasteful spending, and promoting
economic growth for all Americans. The Club for Growth scorecard allows
taxpayers to see how their senators and representatives are performing in
Congress and find out who is truly fighting for pro-growth, limited-government
policies. We hope that support for pro-growth principles will continue to grow,
allowing more members to earn this award and more Americans to benefit."
