You're wasting the time of the Congress. You've told us how you're going to repeal and replace. Where is the replacement? It is not to be seen. Where are the steps that you should be taking about jobs and opportunity for the American people? They are not to be seen. You have the gavel, use it. Use the leadership that the people have given you to lead the Congress of the United States. The Democrats will work with you. But you won't work with us, and you won't work for the American people. The time of dealing with the business of this Nation is short, and the needs of the American people are great. But nowhere are we seeing anything done by our Republican colleagues except to get up and denounce ObamaCare. I say have a more enlightened outlook and proceed to do the Nation's business well.
