Byron Dorgan: “I guess the Senator's point is accurate with respect to what he read from the document in front of him. That is not what…”

“I guess the Senator's point is accurate with respect to what he read from the document in front of him. That is not what is before the Senate. Will the Senator not agree with me that is not what we have laid before the Senate, and if that is the case, you are talking about something we are not debating today? If I can make one final point. When you talk about cuts, there is not any way to deny that the amount of discretionary spending proposed by the majority party is substantially less than the amount of discretionary spending proposed by the President. So those two questions: Is it not true that we are debating something here that is not before the Senate? And what is laid before the Senate does not contain a trigger; is that correct?”
