Statement of the Honorable Marion Berry |
|
FISCAL RESPONSIBILITY |
|
| |
|
Mr. BERRY. Madam Speaker, I love coming down here and listening to these whiz bangs on the other side talk about their fiscal responsibility and all of this foolishness that they have put forth to the American people. It makes me want a dip of snuff. It is almost like they cannot add and subtract. I know they cannot multiply and divide. But the great mystery to me will always remain why in 5 years' time when they have increased the national debt by $3 trillion and demonstrated beyond a shadow of a doubt that they have absolutely no interest in being responsible, they would come here, present a budget that increases the debt by tens of billions of dollars more and try to tell the American people this is what you need; this is what we are going to do for you. You are going to have to answer to your children and grandchildren. And I would love to be there when they walk up to you and say, Grandmother, Grandfather, why did you do this to us? |
