Alan Simpson: “It is my pleasure to yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from Ohio (Mr. Gibbs).”

In your country club, your church and business, about 15% of the people are screwballs, lightweights and boobs, and you would not want those people unrepresented in Congress.

We have two political parties in this country, the Stupid Party and the Evil Party. I belong to the Stupid Party.

I would just say that I am very disappointed that the gentleman doesn't agree with us that we ought to reduce spending because that is what these bills have been doing. Anybody who suggests we are going to stop the debt clock overnight is…

I have no further speakers on this amendment, and I yield back the balance of my time.
