NAN A. S. HAYWORTH: “For weeks now, liberal Democrats have taken to this floor to decry, accuse, condemn, denounce, declaim, vilify…”

“For weeks now, liberal Democrats have taken to this floor to decry, accuse, condemn, denounce, declaim, vilify, incriminate, fulminate, remonstrate, deprecate, and attack any plan to balance our budget. For some reason, they see no need to balance our budget. We have to make changes. Despite all the carping from the other side, our friends on this side offer no alternatives. They offer no solutions. They offer no plan. Mr. Speaker, yesterday the Republican majority introduced a plan to balance our budget in 7 years. There is no longer any excuse not to balance the budget. We have exhausted all the old methods. All of the old big government ideas have been tried and found wanting and found lacking. for the liberals to come to this floor with their hot air about class warfare is nothing short of irresponsible. The American people are tired of excuses. They want this Congress to balance the budget. Republicans will do this, with or without the carping and crying of the liberal Democrats.”
