Ronald Reagan actually said...

Nothing in our Federal Government is more in need of an overhaul than the ridiculous procedure we have misnamed 'the budget process.'

In a wild 5 or 6 days, they battled over which of half a dozen or so budgets we should have, plus 68 amendments, and then came up empty.

I have the greatest admiration and respect for President Lopez Portillo.

Relations between the United States and Mexico are good.
