Political Quotes

“it is with a lot of regret and sadness that I learned of this decision this afternoon. I came to the Senate just 4 rac{1}{2} years ago, which would be about the equivalent of the college degree. During that time, I have gotten to study under Phil Gramm. There have been a lot of times that I really thought I ought to be paying him tuition. It has been a tremendous educational process. If we could just get him to be a little more outspoken. I do recall he said when he retires he is going to retire to a town in the United States that does not have a single traffic light. I assume there are still some of those in Texas. If there are not, Wyoming would welcome the Senator with open arms. We would love to have him there and, of course, we are looking forward to the game against his alma mater, Texas A&M, the team the Senator follows day in and day out, and we are looking forward to a good contest. I thank the Senator for all of the instruction that he has given, for the education he has provided for America. I have appreciated the stands he has taken and the ferocity with which he has taken them. Thanks again for the education.”
