“I think the record is fairly well clear, the public record, I think it is established that the minority leader's game plan, and it has been stated as such, is to ensure that this is a "do-nothing Congress." On our side of the aisle, our leadership intends to ensure that we are a "do the important American business Congress," the business of America that they want done; and that important thing that is called affordable prescription drugs for our seniors certainly falls on the list of important things to do. We are doing that. We are not walking out, and I am a little confused by the minority leader's comments about press conferences that he has been going to, because I understand that that is exactly what the instructions were this morning to the minority, was to get up en masse and walk out and attend a press conference on the east front steps of the Capitol which, in fact, we witnessed. I do not think that is the way to do the Nation's business.”
