Lamar Alexander actually said...

"If the Congress were to decide that a priority for us nationally were to fully fund that, and for a shorter period of time use the money to catch up on maintenance in national parks, what would be you..."

"If there were money in the Land and Water Conservation Fund, I think I'd agree with you."

"It's ridiculous for us to be borrowing money, and the Federal Government that is so heavily indebted, to build roads in the national parks."

"So, how rapidly do you need to catch up? You wouldn't do all that in 1 or 2 years. You would do it over, if you had the money, you'd do it over a period of time, right?"
