US Republican Party: We need a ‘time out’ from regulations – ( who are they kidding ?)

For the second week in a row, Republicans called for the downsizing of federal regulations in the private sector.
“We Republicans say, enough is enough,” said Sen. Susan Collins of Maine in the GOP weekly address Saturday. “America needs a ‘time out’ from the regulations that discourage job creation and hurt our economy.”

Her speech follows weeks of intense debate in Washington over ways to jump-start the economy, including President Barack Obama’s proposed $447 billion jobs plan. But Republicans insist that government “over-regulation” is perhaps the biggest factor standing in the way of job growth.
