John Glenn: “I am not looking for any excuse at all. I am the last guy in the world here who is going to have an excuse for anything…”

“I am not looking for any excuse at all. I am the last guy in the world here who is going to have an excuse for anything like regulatory reform. But I want to do it right. I do not want to do it here on a bill it should not be on to begin with. I want to take it up in committee, consider big business, small business, big government, small government, small government enterprises, and do it right. We have several different pieces of legislation that are proposed. I just do not want to see us do a halfway job on this and do something that is going to be a lawyers full employment act. All we are going to do--we say we are going to take up every direct and indirect possibility of every single rule and regulation that is put into effect in this Government. We are talking about thousands and thousands of potential lawsuits across this country. Maybe my colleague says in the States that has not been the track record, but that is the potential he is opening up. I would say, all I want to do is consider this in committee and take it up. I will be glad to work with the Senator from Wyoming on this in committee so we can come up with something that has less potential for disaster than this has. That is my only view on it.”
