“If you do not mind me interrupting, but that was at no cuts. This was just a decrease in the spending, a decrease in the growth of our government; and they spoke about sitting around the kitchen table and talking about your budget. We all do that. We all have to do that. The American family has to do that, but at the same time, if we know we are going to get a 5 percent pay raise or whatever, we cannot spend more than that. Sometimes we have to rein in our spending, and this is what the Republican majority has tried to do here. So I want to thank you for bringing the Truth Squad to the floor and for explaining to all of us exactly the good things that this majority party has done to put this country in the right direction, and I might also add that our deficit has come down over the last quarter and the last months due to these tax cuts that we gave the American people because they know so much better about how to spend their money than we do as a Congress and as a government. But I want to thank you for taking this opportunity to bring the Truth Squad to the floor and to bring truth to some of the things that are said here.”
