“I yield myself 1 minute in response to my colleague, the gentleman from Mississippi (Mr. Taylor), with whom I see eye to eye on many issues of national security. I appreciate his points but it is interesting that it is somewhat of a selective outrage at the majority in this legislative body because I can remember the President of the United States, Mr. Speaker, visiting this Chamber for a State of the Union message and in outlining budget priorities failed to even articulate just a bit of rhetoric for those veterans who have served our country. Indeed, as the record reflects, it was the majority adding $1,700,000,000 in health care benefits for our veterans. The other irony, I would point out to my friends in the minority, is this, just a few short months ago they embraced tax relief to the tune of $300 billion and yet, now, Mr. Speaker, they tell us it is risky to propose real tax relief of even $48 billion to help America's working families.”
