“I have grown. I thank the gentleman from Florida very much. But now is the time for everybody to follow my example of growing, come together, let us sit down, talk this out. Again, I commend the gentleman from Wisconsin (Mr. Obey), the ranking member of the Committee on Appropriations, today. I thought that his comments were very positive, that the appropriators are willing to sit down, talk this out, do the people's business and go home and not use all this for election year issues. So I thank the gentleman from Florida (Chairman Young) for the additional 30 seconds and for recognizing my amazing growth over the past 4 years.”
