Bennie Thompson said "With every passing day, more injury is done to our economy and our standing in the world. The once unthinkable--a default on U.S. debt--is looking more and more possible. We must stand together and inject some rationality here and bring an end to this long national tantrum that has been orchestrated by 50 of the most radical Members of the majority. Mr. Speaker, the majority must let this House consider and pass a clean CR so that we can get this government up and working again." @ PoliticalQuotes.com
