Political Quotes

“I, of course, disagree with my colleague from Indiana. This is the wrong time to pull a further rug out from under NASA; and my colleagues are fooling themselves if they think by killing the Space Station they are helping other parts of this very difficult appropriations bill. We have got our work cut out for us. I might agree with my colleagues that funding should be restored to other programs within this bill, but killing the Space Station is certainly not the way to do it and this is certainly not the time to do it. I hope the Members coming back here after this long and enjoyable August break are not fooled by this annual battle that my colleague takes us through. Oppose the Roemer amendment.”
