The exact same bill. We learned that in December of 2005. The Deficit Reduction Act had one word different between the House and Senate bills, and the whole thing was held up.

Let me point out just one thing. We hear over and over again Republicans have no solutions for health care. HealthCaucus.org is a Web site that deals only with health care policy. On that Web site, Dr. Burgess's prescription for health…

That's my understanding. It is such a good idea, as you correctly pointed out in your very graphic demonstration. The strong arm of enforcement here is the already existing Federal agency that collects our income taxes every year.

It just shows you the type of tension that we are going to set up between the State and Federal Governments if we were to pick up and pass either the House or the Senate bill and send it down to the President for his signature.

I thank the ranking member for yielding. This is a very unfortunate bill, and I think this side of the aisle has sufficiently laid out abundant reasons why it should be sent to the committee and fixed. The intelligence community is too…

Reclaiming my time, let me just run through a little bit. We heard right at the end of the 6-hour discussion down at Blair House today, the President and I believe the Speaker of the House said that the time for incrementalism has passed…

I appreciate the gentleman yielding. When I heard what you were doing, I wanted to come down here and talk. You know, a week ago we heard from the President here in the House of Representatives, and he talked about this recession that he…
