“Let me finish responding to your question and the question of the Senator from Tennessee. The third option is that we build in, as we have discussed in committee, because you cannot balance everything down to a dime, that in a $1.6 trillion budget you might have a 3 percent leeway where that could then be shifted over to the next fiscal year. And the fourth option is to get more than the 60 votes. And we have shown over and over and over again we have the ability to do that. And we have done that, you know, for earthquakes in California, for storms in Florida and Louisiana, for floods in Illinois and Missouri. We have done that over and over. So I do not think that is a great problem.”
