Joe Scarborough: “And if the gentleman will continue to yield, the gentleman talks about children, and I know he has seen and I have seen…”

“And if the gentleman will continue to yield, the gentleman talks about children, and I know he has seen and I have seen and others have seen people pile on to the floor over the past 3 years since we came here in 1994 and they talk about children. And Washington is great. Any time somebody has a program that they cannot pass on its merits, they put on the children's tie and they come out and start talking about how much they love children. It seems to me that some of the people come to this floor so much talking about how much they love children, and they love children so much that the first pockets that they go to to pay for their new Federal Government plans are our children's pockets. We can make no mistake of it, they are reaching down into the pockets of my children, the gentleman's children, children from across America, and they are stealing more money from the pockets of our children. That may sound a little bit blunt, but it is the truth. We have already stolen, this body over the past 40 years has stolen $5.6 trillion from future generations, and it is future generations that will have to pay that bill after the gentleman and I are retired.”
