Political Quotes

“They are on the same side as my bad eye, folks. We are all pretty good at what we do, but we would be lost without the Tim Mitchells and Gary Myricks of the world. We would be stumbling around here. We depend on them so very much. Tim has helped us. He has helped us on so many different things. He has helped us through the Affordable Care Act, the automobile bailout, and the stimulus. I could go on and on with all we have done, and he has been here helping us. He has accomplished so very much, but I know--and he doesn't have to give me a long dissertation on this--his role in life is to be a good father to his 10-year-old son Ben and of course a good husband to his wife Alicia. I am sure he accomplishes that very well. Ben is a budding skier--and to no one's surprise--a baseball player. He speaks, as we all do about our athletes, about how good they are, and in our eyes, they are the best. Alicia and Ben are here with us today. Thank you for sharing Tim with us all of these years. I join the entire U.S. Senate, Democrats and Republicans, in thanking Tim Mitchell for his exceptional work for 25 years.”
