“The question arises, why are we doing it? Either there has been a misleading of the unions so they feel a false sense of security that they do not really get or there is, in fact, some substantive change that we are supposed to not notice on this side of the aisle. As I say, I do not challenge the intelligence, the integrity, or the motives of anybody who has engaged in this debate, but as a layman, standing here for an hour and a half, listening to the debate go back and forth, I draw that conclusion. I find myself quite perplexed over the intensity with which this battle has been fought if indeed that is where we are.”
