If we don't do it right, shame on us.

There may be some merit to the American public's concern about the advisability of federal government control.

I think we ought to encourage that kind of innovation in the market.

We don't want Washington telling us what to do with our investments.

I rise to oppose this non-stimulus package because it is selfish and irresponsible. It is selfish--because it will burden future generations for years to come with unbelievable debt; trillions of dollars stolen from our children and…

I want to, once again, commend Representative Miller for his resolution. I think it's important in the context of this discussion, however, to make certain that the Nation understands and that our colleagues appreciate that much work has…

As a physician, nothing is more important to me than patients and the ability of doctors to take care of them. One of the reasons that I ran for public office was to work as diligently as I could to get politics out of the clinical exam…

My folks at home, when I tell them these sorts of things, they shake their head. They say, You gotta be kidding me. And we won't allow our oil companies, American oil producers, to do the same sorts of things in environmentally sensitive…

But I can't believe that a significant number of folks on the other side don't believe in their heart, and their constituents certainly, that we ought to be able to solve this problem with our own resources and with our own ingenuity and…

I appreciate that. And this idea, the idea you came up with is so wonderful because what it's going to allow every Member of this House to see is who signs on the petition.

That's an important figure. Over half of the time that the oil companies put a drill down to find oil, they didn't find anything, and this is on that leased land. That's on that leased land.

I hear people say, ``Why on Earth can't people live up to their word? Why can't they do what they said they were going to do when they ran for office?'' And the spending is one of the things that gets them so terribly irritated and so…

I would suggest, Mr. Speaker, that these threats do no favors to the American taxpayers across our country. The chairman is ensuring that we will get full and active participation in this program, populated by the riskiest of loans with…

And in my district, the Sixth District of Georgia, I get constant questions about national security: What is Congress doing to make certain that our Nation is safe? And that's important because, Mr. Speaker, today is the 48th day, the 48th…

We are now 25 days into a unilateral disarmament, a disarmament that doesn't make any sense to our constituents in each and every district across this Nation. The Senate voted 68-29, 68-29.

Thank you for bringing greater clarity to that, Mr. Hoekstra. And before you joined us, I read and inserted into the Record a letter from 25 State attorneys general talking about the importance of FISA, a bipartisan group of individuals…

What occurs on the floor of this House is consequential. Who is to say that there wouldn't have been information that would have been gained, had we had this bill in place, that would have allowed us to know that those activities were…

I appreciate that. But our side looks at the world and sees Hezbollah challenging Israel to open war. We look at the world and we see al Qaeda threatening to assassinate the Filipino President. We look at the world in, I believe, realistic…

I want to commend the author of what I think is an appropriate amendment of loan forgiveness. As an orthopedic surgeon, I worked closely with physical therapists, and they are integral to the healing process in so many areas. Another group…

I try to bring posters, because when I look at something like this it really drives the issue home and brings it much more clear to me. But this is what you have mentioned that is so true, and the bill that was passed, as you said, would…

What this chart demonstrates is that the rhetoric that we hear from the other side doesn't match the action. I call it Orwellian democracy, which is that the words don't match the actions. This chart demonstrates the seven appropriations…

This language was taken directly from your side's PAYGO language in the rule. So what I'm attempting to do is to try to provide individuals with something which they hopefully have seen before. This is the PAYGO language from the PAYGO…

This is truly a day of great sadness for our conference, for this House, for the State of Ohio and, yes, Mr. Speaker, for our Nation. Though only in my second term in Congress, I came to know and appreciate Paul Gillmor, serving on one of…

Once again I am amused by the comments of my good friends and colleagues on the other side. The fact of the matter is the departments that run these programs that we are addressing right here asked for $2.3 billion less than our good…

No, it doesn't make any sense at all. It lays bare the true motive and the true philosophy, which, on the other side of the aisle, at least the true leadership who are pushing this legislation, their belief is that government knows better…
