John Cornyn actually said...

"The time for talk is running out and now it is time for action."

"We cannot just talk about the economic outlook and the budget. We have to do something about it."

"I was pleasantly surprised... when you and other members of the President's Fiscal Commission came out with what I thought was a bold and dramatic and sobering report."

"So you can increase taxes on an industry and it will have no impact on price to consumers, is what you are saying?"
