Patty Murray actually said...

"Spending cuts alone are not going to put Americans back to work or put our budget back in balance."

"This is infuriating for average taxpayers who are dutifully paying their taxes."

"It is going to take honesty from every member of this committee, honesty with one another and honesty with the American people."

"The American people are looking at this committee with great optimism but also with real skepticism."
