Mary Landrieu actually said...

"We can do a lot better with fewer, clearer and more efficient programs which would enable families to get back into better, safer homes faster and more easily."

"With help from all levels of government, Long Beach will rebuild stronger, smarter, and safer."

"A disproportionate share of our Nation's debt and deficit reduction has come from spending cuts as opposed to increased revenues."

"to spend taxpayer money smartly, again rebuilding these communities for the future, not rebuilding past communities."
