On the recordMay 4, 2010
we have had a big day in the Senate. Because of my Republican friends, we have been able to accomplish almost nothing--not quite but almost nothing. I love old cars, and I am glad we are able to pass this important legislation: Collector Car Appreciation Day. Collector Car Appreciation Day. While people out there are looking for jobs, trying to save their homes, we are doing what the Republicans let us do: Collector Car Appreciation Day. That is the extent of our work because the Republicans have objected to everything we have tried to do on trying to reform Wall Street--for obvious reasons. We all read the press saying the lobbyists are here lined up with their Gucci shoes and their new suits and a lot of new ties because we are told they are spending millions of dollars a week on these people to stop us from reforming Wall Street. We are going to reform Wall Street. We are going to work through all of these objections. We are going to work through the party of no and the obstructionism.
