John Kasich said "Let me just ask the chairman, if he would, let us just put this in terms that Americans can understand, so when they are going to work tomorrow they can turn to the person next to them and say, you know, we thought the Republicans were not getting anywhere, but did you hear that they were able to cut the Washington spending and the waste and the abuse, and they were actually able to save us $23 billion this year. Is that right, I ask the chairman of the committee? Is there anything more complicated than that?" @ PoliticalQuotes.com

Is that right, I ask the chairman of the committee? Is there anything more complicated than that?
