Political Quotes

“Madam Speaker, it is very difficult to criticize a bill that is still being put together behind closed doors. But we do know that it is more about consolidation of power in Washington than about real health reform for the American people. We also know that a poor process always equals poor public policy, and the procedural shenanigans being proposed by the Speaker and Democratic leaders to slip this past the American people make all of Lucy Ricardo's schemes to be a part of Ricky's show look like clear and logical plans of action. This also would be a comedy if it wasn't such a tragedy for the American people. Madam Speaker, my State has already instituted real health care solutions that deal with our demographics and give people options in the State of Utah. All of our efforts will be destroyed if this one- size-fits-all, trillion-dollar tragedy is actually passed here on the House floor. ____________________”
