“Well, the budget that we are dealing with has no increase in taxes whatsoever related to it. I think the gentleman understands that. In fact, even the budget resolution that guides the budgeting this year for all of our bills, all of our discretionary budget legislation, that budget resolution does not have any tax increase in it either. I think the gentleman understands that as well. We are making messages here that are really not correct. They are simply not accurate. They are simply not true. I want to remind the gentleman and others from the other side who have spoken that since President Bush took office, the national debt has increased by over $3 trillion, $3 trillion, over 3, it's closer to $3.3 trillion. That's 3 with 12 zeros behind it. Some people have a difficult time understanding a three with six zeros behind it. That's $1 million. But $3 trillion, with 12 zeros behind it is $1 million, million dollars.”
