“The Senator from Illinois is very eloquent in his advocacy. But I think he is avoiding the question posed by Senator Bunning, who simply says he is prepared tonight to fund the programs that you wish, to have them go forward. As I understand it, is it not true he said that if you take this $10 billion, I think it is, that is required to fund this program, and you fund it out of the $400 billion unspent from the stimulus--a large part of it was supposed to be for this very purpose--that he would let the bill go tonight; that what he objects to is not doing that, and which, in effect, means--does it mean that the debt will be increased again tonight by another $10 billion.”
