On the recordMarch 10, 2008
Because I respect the Senator so much and was sure he would tell us what the context was, No. 1. No. 2, I certainly agree with the distinguished chairman of the Budget Committee on both of the subsequent two comments: one, that we should reduce spending, and, two, that we should have entitlement reform. I would only make the point that I do not see a lot of reduced spending and entitlement reform in the budget, but perhaps the chairman could go on and discuss that as well. I thank the Senator for yielding.
