“By 2010 it is over. We have 14 to 16 years to straighten this out. While the others drag their feet, my own Senator ran ads saying, I will vote for the balanced budget, vote for me. She got here and reneged. It was the one vote that killed the balanced budget amendment. We do not have the luxury any longer to debate whether. It is when and how, and those are tough decisions. I have projects in my district that I would like to see expanded, too, but we are going to have to suck it up, take our medicine and balance this budget. I appreciate the gentleman bringing up the point.”
