Ann Wagner actually said...

"the Administration manufactured and hyped up the crisis in order to prevent... Republicans and Congress... from enacting smart and responsible fiscal policy."

"he decided to use the opportunity to lecture and pontificate, not negotiate."

"the American people are tired of the dysfunction in Washington and tired of their elected officials and leaders failing to get things done."

"this President said he wouldn't negotiate when we had a gun to their heads, and he cost this country and the taxpayers and the people tens of millions of dollars."
