Political Quotes

“We have got two leaders here today that are in the Hall of Fame, one in baseball and one in football. This really is about team sports; politics are about team sports. Two teams are going to take the field today when we vote. One team is going to say the Tax Code is too large, too cumbersome, and we are going to replace it in a timely process, in a reasonable process. We are going to give ourselves 3 or 4 years to do it. If at the end of the 3 or 4 years we do not have a compromise that will work, we will just extend the current Tax Code and keep working on it until we get it right. That team says what we have today is wrong, and we are going to work on it until we get it right. We think 3 rac{1}{2} to 4 years is enough, but if we are wrong, we will extend it. But we are not going to sit by and let the Tax Code be unnoticed. We are going to be agents for change.”
