In 2008, then President Bush said that the Bush/Cheney 'free market' policies caused a depression greater than the Great Depression.

BUSH: "Those of you who have followed my career know I'm a Free Market person until you're told that if you don't take decisive measures then it's conceivable that our country could go into a Depression greater than the Great Depression."

~Bush 2008 on how 8 years of Bush Economic Policies melted down & destroyed the US Economy

According to Bureau of Labor, in January 2009, when President Obama was sworn in, the country lost 818,000 jobs. And, in the months leading up to January 2009, the United States was consistently losing over 700,000 jobs per month, yet these GOP assholes still plotted to do further damage to America and plotted to sabotage our economy.

Pete Sessions solution is create GOP Taliban-style Insurgency:

In 2009, Pete Sessions declared he wanted the GOP to model the Taliban in creating a GOP Insurgency and Kevin McCarthy demanded an "unyielding opposition" to every single economic policy presented even if the policy is a GOP policy.

In February 2, 2009, Politico reported:

NRCC Chairman Pete Sessions (R-Texas) repeated the request during his own briefing for members Friday —telling Republicans that they need to get over the idea that they’re participating in legislation and ought to start thinking of themselves as “an insurgency” instead.
Just get over it! You're not in DC to legislate! You're in DC to create an "insurgency."

Hal Rogers (R-KY) was disgusted by Session's comment and told Politico it was the most offensive-minded proposal he’s seen during his 28 years in the House.

A few days later, Pete Sessions underscored his desire to create a Taliban-style GOP Insurgency in an interview with the National Journal Hotline:

"PETE SESSIONS: Insurgency, we understand perhaps a little bit more because of the Taliban. And that is that they went about systematically understanding how to disrupt and change a person's entire processes. And these Taliban -- [is] an example of how you go about to change a person from their messaging to their operations to their frontline message. And we need to understand that insurgency may be required when the other side, the House leadership, does not follow the same commands, which we entered the game with."

~Rep Pete Sessions, March 2009 to National Journal Hotline

Sessions went further and explained that he wants the GOP to use the Taliban as the GOP model to create a GOP insurgency :
PETE SESSION: "I simply said one can see that there's a model out there for insurgency,"
Sheesh ... Pete Sessions did not want to legislate, he wanted a GD 'insurgency.'

The United States Department of Defense defines "Insurgency"

INSURGENCY: The organized use of subversion and violence to seize, nullify, or challenge political control of a region.

~ Department of Defense Dictionary of Military and Associated Terms

It should give us all great comfort to know that our elected republican leaders have such admiration for the tactics of our nation's enemies.  

But, what makes this so much worse than just any ole Republican saying that BS, is that it is Pete Sessions who is being hailed as possibly the new number 2 dude in the House saying that BS.
