Emanuel Cleaver: “On the 16th, the House pages played two games with the Senate pages. The Senate pages lucked up and won a Frisbee…”

“On the 16th, the House pages played two games with the Senate pages. The Senate pages lucked up and won a Frisbee match--but with probably some cheating--but the House pages, standing strong, following all the rules, doing the right thing, defeated the Senate pages badly, 10-4, in kickball. And as the Senate pages, with their heads dropped and their spirits torn, left the field, they reported to the Senate only one part of that day, which was the game they lucked up and won. So, Madam Speaker, I want to commend the athletic pages of the House of Representatives and hope that we can continue to get superior pages, as we have this year, in the future. Congratulations to the pages.”
