Political Quotes

“there is a great tragedy going on here. Our friends on the other side have pontificated at great length today, but they have had several opportunities to put several hundred thousand Federal workers back to work and they have refused the opportunity. It is unfortunate that these opportunities have gone by the wayside, while we stand here as Americans hoping that we can get to the 7-year balanced budget that on November 20 was promised to not just this Congress but to all of America. When the polling numbers dipped overnight, that is when we saw the 7-year balanced budget agreement on November 20. Unfortunately it will not be until the polling numbers, the tracking numbers over at the executive branch drop overnight that we will see a balanced budget agreement. It is unfortunate, and I regret the turn of events, and I hope that sanity will be restored in Washington.”
