“Well, Mr. Speaker, I appreciate the gentleman stating that, but, of course, it works both ways, and the gentleman from Colorado is a former farmer and very successful banker and successful businessman.

I will be glad to answer any questions on the medical issues that the gentleman might have, but I am going to ask him some business questions, particularly in regard to the health savings accounts. And he knows a lot about that, having employed a lot of folks. But, yes, I will be happy to respond to any questions the gentleman might have on medical issues.”
