I did not go to Iraq, I did not go to Vietnam, I did not fight in World War II for you to take away my freedom in one piece of legislation. I've got to remind my friends of what the Speaker said just a week or two ago. I quote directly Speaker Nancy Pelosi: 'We need to pass this bill so you can find out what's in it.' Does anyone deny that is a direct quote from the Speaker? That is exactly what Speaker Pelosi said.
