Political Quotes

“But if a range is going to be permitted, then it seems to me the bill must be explicit as to what will be that magic, specific amount upon which a point of order is going to either lie or not lie. I must say, I do not see any logic in saying that if the range is from $10 to $60 million, we are going to assume for purposes of the point of order it is $60 million. Why not take the midpoint of the range? I do not think there is any logic in saying the high point will govern anymore than there is in saying the low point will govern. It seems to me the best approach will be to say the middle will govern.”
