Political Quotes

On the recordMay 7, 2013
Madam President, reserving the right to object, and I will in a moment, we considered over 100 amendments on the Senate floor. All of those kinds of amendments were brought up, debated, and considered as part of the resolution, as we do on any debate. So there is no need to go back and redo all of our amendments again. So I object and ask simply again our UC to move forward to conference so we can discuss all of these issues in regular order. The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. Objection is noted. Is there objection to the original request? Mr. McCONNELL. I object. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Objection is heard. The Senator from Louisiana.
