“I have been here for 4 years. We have come a long ways over those 4 years. We have gotten to a balanced budget for the first time in 30 years. We have restored Medicare, not by raising taxes, as was done in the past. We provided the first family and education tax relief in 16 years. We have come a long ways. We got a lot of things done that a lot of people said could not happen. I want everyone in this Chamber to know it has been an honor and a privilege to serve here with my colleagues. But as evidenced by what I have here in my hands, that was provided for us this afternoon, we still have a long ways to go in restoring this great Nation that we have here tonight. We have 4,000 pages here in this bill that has not been read by a single Member of this Congress. I guarantee not a single one has read the entire bill. ... Social Security money should be saved for Social Security, period. And that is what this is all about tonight. We have a long ways to go here.”
