Tim Murphy said "I yield myself such time as I may consume. Too often their hope failed, and now history is about to repeat itself. First, jobs are lost by the tens of thousands and, after that, the hundreds of thousands. And when people lose their jobs, we give them unemployment compensation. They go hungry; we give them food stamps. They lose unemployment; we give them welfare. They lose their homes; we give them public housing. They lose their dignity and pride, and the government has nothing left to give--nothing--when all these folks ever really wanted was a job--a job and a chance for the American dream not shattered by the EPA. I reserve the balance of my time." @ PoliticalQuotes.com
