It is irresponsible'' that the health care law left such a major issue unresolved, while at the same time claiming--claiming--to reduce the Federal deficit. Continuing to quote: ``I think we should have put a crowbar in our wallets.'' Well, look, here is the problem. We passed a bill.

I would always rather have access to a doctor.”
