“I was not aware of them, but it goes to the point that we were making earlier, I say to the distinguished Senator from Arkansas, that there have been no hearings on health care, there have been no hearings on the economy and on jobs. There have been only 3 days of hearings on public education--3 days in all of this time. So the point made by the distinguished Senator is an accurate one. The fact is, nothing is being done. There is no effort to address some of the major concerns that people have expressed over and over in poll after poll. So I think the Senator makes a very valid point.”
